I don't get much time at the moment either to listen to these debates, or post, but head desk ... this person is an XXXXXX and I am shouting at the radio!
Go Nic!!!

We're not talking about working out in a gym to help depression we are talking about competing!!!

Transwomen report higher levels of mental health
Well jolly good.

Helmetbymidnight · 04/12/2018 10:21

Sports more important for trans people than other people? Wtaf.

MrsWinkly · 04/12/2018 10:21

Good, here's Nicola to talk sense.

ToeToToe · 04/12/2018 10:21

FFS! Who is this woman on now - happily destroying women's competitive sport forever. Bloody hell.

How can she not see how bloody ridiculous the stuff she’s spouting is?

ShowOfHands · 04/12/2018 10:21

Fuck me. I'm not trying hard enough. I'm going to try really hard to beat Usain Bolt. That's all it takes right? As a 5ft 3" size 8 woman, I just need to Try Harder.

Cis cis cis cis cis SHUT UP.

LikeDust · 04/12/2018 10:21

Is she deliberately misinforming or is she just thick?

MrsWinkly · 04/12/2018 10:21

I think we've reached a new level of misogyny here.

cockBlocker · 04/12/2018 10:20

Women may push themselves harder if made to compete with men?! So female athletes currently just prance around for fear of chipping their nail varnish?! F***CK!

BubonicBudgie · 04/12/2018 10:20

Actually keep talking.
You've just peaked trans the nation

HollowTalk · 04/12/2018 10:20

No trans person poses a threat to their competitors. Absolute bollocks.

CecilyNeville · 04/12/2018 10:20

Oh my god, this woman is destroying herself! No need for Nic to come on at all.

MrsWinkly · 04/12/2018 10:20

This is painful.
Beth's not getting it.

Janleverton · 04/12/2018 10:20

So women are coasting? How fucking insulting!

Calvinsmam · 04/12/2018 10:20

I am SCREAMING at this woman!
How dare she suggest that women only have a disadvantage in sport because we don’t try hard enough.
Has she even heard herself.

What....a....cock

OunceOfFlounce · 04/12/2018 10:20

Lol, women are weaker than men coz were just not trying hard enough!? Fuck off!

BubonicBudgie · 04/12/2018 10:20

Fuck off

MrsWinkly · 04/12/2018 10:19

Is Beth saying women aren't trying hard enough?? Angry

Helmetbymidnight · 04/12/2018 10:19
