It's elementary, Transwomen that are Trans Athletes should not compete in Women's sports. Renaldo McKenzie, joined by Donte T. Nelson discuss the recent move by #donaldtrump to ban transwomen from competing in women's sports and to pass actions preventing schools and government institutions from recognizing trans athlete and transgender people. Renaldo shares his article blog published in The Neoliberal Journals: The Neoliberal CorporationMar 07It's elementary, women who were once men, should not play in Women Sports. Such women still possess or have access to their masculinity that gives them an advantage over other women born as women. Therefore, it is unfair for transwomen to compete in women's sport until the technology is available to drain them of their masculine prowess and that can perform checks when they fail to take their hormone meds when they are competing in events to get temporary advantage.If anything transgender women should create their own sporting category to evade any issue from performing in women's sport and to satisfy their need to compete in sports. If the transgender women promote diversity, equity and inclusion, they should see how their participation in women's sport is hypocritical to that cause.Moreover, the attack on Gavin Newsom is misplaced and unfortunate, because he sides with what seems fair which goes against your wants not your needs and principles. If anything Newsome's position coincides with diversity, equity and inclusion, because DEI is about and facilitates fairness and transgender women in women's sport is unfair and goes against DEI and the ideals of the LGBTQIA community.The solution is simple, create an opportunity for transgender women to play in sports where they have their own category or sporting events and they compete against each other. Now what's wrong with that. Why not come up with something we all can agree on instead of forcing the issue?(https://theneoliberal.com/its-elementary-transgender-women-should-not-play-in-womens-sport/The show begins with a news excerpt of the recent actions by the Trump administration to stymie LGBTQIA super trans women in sports and Trump commenting on his actions.Renaldo and Donte then discuss the topic with background music and interludes.Renaldo McKenzie is the Creator and Host of the Neoliberal Round Podcast, Author of Neoliberalism, Globalization, Income Inequality, Poverty and Resistance and Professor at Jamaica Theological Seminary, Doctoral Cand. at Georgetown University.
