Incidently, the lawn tennis association, allows pre op trans gender competitors on the professional cicuit.

Just think about that, and how it might effect the game.

Thanks. "New balls please" will never sound quite the same for me ever again.

Mixed doubles could get messy!

That's where all this stuff ends; fellas in pleated mini skirts and knickers flouncing around a court, whacking a tennis ball and twirking their ass. Is this what we're all supposed to sign up to in the name of trans-gender awareness ? What a brave new world this is.

I would venture to say this new world is full of wimps, too scared to offend anyone to the point that everything which was black or white is now varying shades of grey.

Just had yet another email from a very British clothing firm, wishing me a Happy Holiday.

I don't doubt it, but where are all these flouncy fellas in miniskirts a-whacking and a-twerking their asses around a court fifty years on? I've never seen any. And I watch a fair bit of tennis. 

[paul's got wright]

They would be in the women's game obviously! Have a look there and get your eye in, see if you can see any.

It may have already happened. It may not have.

The point is, a level playing field for both male and female compettitors. That is the point i am making.

Advice from Brighton and Hove education authority on guidelines relating to 'trans boys and men.' I really didn't know that trans boys and men have periods too. You learn something new every day!

How odd that you would not understand something you do not understand...

[quilp]

Oh I understand it alright. You're one cheeky bastard...

And then there's this madness; the National Lottery Fund were about to donate half a million quid to a 'charity' which promotes irreversible biological and physical changes to children before they're able to give informed consent.
