If Brittney Griner is so good that she's better than NBA players, I'm sure NBA teams would be contracting her instead of WNBA. Good for her. Probably make more money too.

What's the point you want to make? The WNBA has made a call that it's cool for her to compete there. I don't know what you want me to say? It's a different case in a different sport.

I'm sure the appropriate league will make their determination based on the information available to them.

I don't see the point in debating a made up scenario of yours where the only information available is the one you're imagining.

I'm simply informing you that the IBA (International Boxing Association) does do genetic testing. And this woman have been excluded as a result. It has already happened. The debate of which is slightly higher level than the other is pointless and irrelevant

As per what I think. I think women's sport was created to promote sports for women and boost their participation. And also to give them an equal playingfield. due to men (who are genetically different), often have a physical advantage because of it.

If a woman, have these genetic traits that give men their physical advantages (and I'm speaking in broad, general terms). I can understand if there is a debate about allowing her to compete with other women that doesn't. It is after all one of the two reasons women's sports were created in the first place.

It's an absolute win win.

  1. If they patent it, no one else can use the same system in the same way. So it's contained to Ford.

  2. If they don't end up using it. It's simply a safeguard that no one else can either.

  3. If they do end up using it, people will shy away from Ford, making the roads safer for everyone.

As I said. Win win. This is fantastic news.

They already do genetic testing on the highest level of competition. She's been excluded by IBA because of it.

Entering Hogwarts Legacy,

I took my little goofballs off cousins to an amusement park, never been so scared in my life as I see the youngest instantly take off like Usain Bolt. So glad they got phones at least because I wasn't sure how I would explain to my uncle that I lost his child 5 seconds after entering.

TLDR.

The American got a flat in the rocky section and the swede who passed her then yelled out to the Americans mechanic further ahead that she had gotten a flat tyre so they were ready with a very quick tyre swap

He didn't say YOU have spiritual needs. He said humans have them.

You're the exact type of person the image posted is about.

I was in discussion (if you can even call it that) with someone and when he spoke about "Occupied Korea" i knew there was no point what so ever to continue.

There's no laddar long enough in the world to climb out of that hole.

Football violence is very real though. Let's not forget that and make sure we are in good safe areas when out.

I'm sure my friend took me to a place that he knews had good people in it knowing I'd wear my country's shirt.
