HBO’s John Oliver spent his entire show last night arguing that men who claim to be women don’t have a competitive advantage in sports. (twitter.com)

Yes, but did he use a funny voice when stating the opposing opinion? Everyone knows that proves your opponents are wrong.

Of course he did. He has to. They all have to.

To acknowledge there is even the slight variation would undermine not only the entire trans dogma, but parts of feminism as well. It would mean the sexes are not only not equal, but have clear advantages over the other.

Yep, it’s a keystone issue that men and women are 100% the same thing and if you step away from it the whole thing falls apart.

They don't care too much about social issues.

They want people miserable and distracted so it's easier to pick their pockets.

It's misdirection. Which is Oliver's speciality.

The reason it's so difficult to address is that it goes all of the way back to the origin of western civilization in ancient Egypt, and the birth of monotheism. Pharaoh Akhenaton, who attempted to replace the pagan gods of Egypt with the singular Aton, preached a gospel of absolute equality, even going so far as to have himself depicted as both man and woman in art.

I read feminism a bit differently. It says that women should positioned to do something even if men are better at it. They're not saying we are the same. They are saying we have to dole out to womeb whatever a eseen as the rewards without them having to do the work.

Feminism has always maintained that they can do anything men can do (meaning they see us as equals) except in cases where they are superior. This was their case for deserving more privileges.

So to acknowledge that men have extreme superiority across basically all sports would undermine nearly all types of feminism. From the radical to even the milquetoast, admitting that they are weak (and thereby in need of the bonds of "patriarchy" or just men for protection) goes against their stated ideologies in all forms.

Clay: The "expert" that John Oliver interviewed did a study that contradicts his own statements in this interview. Here is what Joanna Harper's study found:

Harper J, O'Donnell E, Sorouri Khorashad B, McDermott H, Witcomb GL. "How does hormone transition in transgender women change body composition, muscle strength and haemoglobin? Systematic review with a focus on the implications for sport participation." British Journal of Sports Medicine, 2021. Finding: After 12–36 months of hormone therapy, transgender women exhibit significant decreases in strength, lean body mass (LBM), and muscle area, yet these values remain higher than those observed in cisgender women. The study concludes that strength may be well-preserved in trans women even after 3 years, suggesting a retained advantage over cisgender women.

Maybe he just reads the prompter and isn't part of the research team. Maybe he doesn't care about truth. Either case, his priority is money.

I hope they stick to this big time.

I hope they keep comparing trannyism to being gay. I hope they publicly shame men who won't fuck ersatz-chicks. I hope they continue to shoe horn tranny athletes in while mocking normal athletes who complain about it.

The more they push this, the deeper normal people will bury the corpse of this evil ideology

Wyoming passed a law titled "Compelled Speech is not Free Speech" https://www.wyoleg.gov/Legislation/2025/SF0077

Government and (most importantly) schools will not be able to require compliance with tranny political correctness. That's some normies pushing back.

Yes. Women athletes and their mothers that were not politically vocal about conservative are now. I mean this unironically: the trans in women’s sports is gamergate for females

I remember when he was using Grindr as a gag for what republicans were up to in Milwaukee right after Butler in 2024.

If he can make fun of potentially repressed homosexual men you can be damn sure he'll throw straight women under the bus after it's slowly backed up while making beeping noises over his grandmother's cranium and whose neck he has under his jackboot.

At this point he's a domestic terrorist.

I'm all for comedy being edgy and pushing the boundaries but where was he when Biden was in full regalia?

Now explain why there is a division in the first place and why in every single sport, men outperform women. If men in womens sport won't necessarily have an advantage, explain why there's even a division between the sexes in the first place.

You know what's sad? I recently listened to a comedy routine by him and laughed a lot. The guy calling his son a little cunt had me laugh because I had that problem after moving to the USA. I genuinely didn't know Americans took it so offensively until my twenties.

They took someone funny and made them read the script. This is a committee that doesn't understand comedy, but forces everyone to think it is.
