Maxine Blythin - 2019 Kent Woman Player of the Year

I'm off to play T-Ball then. I'm going to crush those little kids.

Of course Maxine has gone through male puberty. We know that the numbers of children on puberty blockers is very small, and a large proportion of them are female. Does Maxine, who is more than 6ft tall, look like they've missed puberty?

Nuts as usual.

My son had indeed had his puberty and he's not even 19!

Even if he was to 'pause' everything now (he is mid-teens) I wouldn't fancy the chances of a girl or woman doing sports against him. I can see that his body muscle and fat ratios are just different to a female - he is just solid muscle and incredibly powerful.

Against women and girls he just has more punch and strength. even if he never got any large, he has a hell of an advantage. I was sporty at that age and I was skinny - not muscly or solid like heis now.

That tweet!

Even though the definition of a transwoman is a biological male identifying as a woman and Blythin transitioned at 19, that doesn't mean they went through male puberty?

These people are properly crazy.

Sorry- can someone clarify- this individual is still playing in both a male and female team- so is ID'ing as Male and Female, depending on which team they play for. Does pretty crap in a men's team whilst concurrently smashing it in a women's team, or has now quit the men's team to dominate the women's team?

Scared of the truth getting out. Fielding a MTF transsexual in a women’s team is just cheating.

I remember being excluded from sports teams for who I was - a kid not very good at sport.

Scared of their mammies.

They are so scared of Mumsnet!

I'm saying nuffink. Just blowing kisses at 'the watcher/s'.

stealth I presume that's a reference to my post on page 1.

I made the statement "if a person has been through male puberty they shouldn't be playing women's sport.". Nothing about Blythin in particular (though I know which side I'd put money on if you forced me to make a bet).

Look. They said they transitioned at 19. If they hadn't hit puberty by 19 then here is something seriously wrong...

How can people possibly maintain this delusion in the teeth of the transparent reality?

Did you see the tweet saying "the only thing I can find anywhere saying Maxine had gone through male puberty is a Mumsnet post from two days ago. Discrimination and separation isn’t an answer. It’s transphobia."

Maintaining the illusion against all the evidence has been elevated to an art form by some dedicated transcultists. Imagine seriously considering that a transwoman having gone through male puberty is a vile calumny invented by mumsnetters.

'as far as I'm concerned' they haven't thought about it then.

As far as I’m aware there’s no conclusive proof of any 'advantages' of being a trans woman in cricket.

There isn't, as is shown by Blythin's unexceptional performance when playing on the men's team. But there's obviously an advantage to being born male when playing on the women's team.

So why are women being excluded from squads for being who they are?

Cricket is a sport for all and no one should be excluded because of who they are.

Sport may be a human right, but winning is not.

Pity it does not seem to be decided by a public vote.

The journo looks quite young i suppose 🤷‍♀️
It seems like the “man on the street” totally gets it but most people in any sort of “position” is sticking to the party line rigidly.
I’ve never known a time for such a contrast between what institutions (for want of a better word) are pushing vs what the public want. The public do not want this.

Lots of ppl on twitter pointing out the fact that Hopkins being a vile human doesn’t make her wrong on this

Still on the plus side more are peak transed every day....

Tammy wouldn’t win it! Someone else would get in there first.

Because if they don’t say what they have been taught there is a mahoosove pile on and many threats.

And the award for Ally of the Year goes to ....
