6.5 Will Hormones and Surgery Change Me into the Opposite Sex?
Not totally. Every animal including human animals has the instructions that guided their development stored in packages of DNA called chromosomes. Every cell in a male other than sperm cells has an X and a Y chromosome. Every cell in a female other than egg cells have two X chromosomes. Taking hormones will not change that. Surgery won't change that either. Surgery and hormones can't make a man able to give birth to a baby. One characteristic of males is that they tend to be stronger and bigger than females. Fully grown males who take female hormones tend to remain stronger than most females. The result is that transgenders beat most females in sports. One of the great things about sports is it develops the human spirit. The competitive spirit encourages people to achieve all they can achieve. If they can't win no matter how hard they try they lose that competitive spirit and learn to give up. In the video below women complain about how unfair it is that they are forced to compete against men who took hormones to transition to women.
At the University of Pennsylvania a man who decided he was a transgender and named himself Lia, competed in women's swim meets and broke lots of records. A teammate spoke to Worldnetdaily about this on condition of anonymity. She said she was afraid to give her real name because it could interfere with her getting a job. She said in regard to Lia competing on the women's team "I think secretly everyone just knows it's the wrong thing to do" and "When the whole team is together, we have to be like, 'Oh my gosh, go Lia, that's great, you're amazing.' It's very fake." She said "When I have kids, I kinda hope they’re all boys because if I have any girls that want to play sports in college, good luck. [Their opponents] are all going to be biological men saying that they’re women." "Right now we have one, but what if we had three on the team? There’d be three less girls competing."
Kara Dansky wrote a book called The Abolition of Sex: How the “Transgender” Agenda Harms Women and Girls. Kara says the problem of legislation equating transgenders with women goes far beyond women's sports. You can see a video of her speaking about this below.
