Diddy Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Yeah the match was played up the road from you. BUT I actually KNOW Harriet. A nice person, Completely disagree that they should be allowed in women's competition though. Her court case against one of the other pool org's started yesterday in my local court too. Ultimate pool could and should have stuck to their own original decision which was you play either in the open category OR if you were born a woman then you could play in the women's circuit. Harriet is a decent person to speak to. She is pretty good at pool too....although being that I have played cue sports all my life I have to say I have seen much better and personally wouldn't be unhappy to be drawn against her in a pool comp. But she is using this for money in my opinion as she basically asking this lot for £100k to make it all go away. (Think it's the English BlackBall Pool association) which is essentially an armature circuit which kind of makes it worse in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldringers Posted April 8 Author Share Posted April 8 (edited) I'm old school like plenty others, you cannot change your sex because you want to do. Your body genetically is either male or female. There was a case were a woman recently walked off from the world frizby throwing women's final because a trans was allowed to compete in the women's section. She will have a huge advantage due to having a stronger arm through all the w@nking Edited April 8 by goldringers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diddy Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Im not so much old school, live and let live is my motto. Do no harm and all that. Treat others as you wish to be treated ect ect. My thoughts on bio men in women's sport are I don't think it's fair in any way. That's it. Even in cue sports - There is a difference, even though there is no strength involved....the data fucking shows that men are better than women - if you just look at the data alone it can't be argued. What people choose to do to their bodies and how they choose to live their life has nothing to do with me. Harriet has went the whole 9 yards - she has "fully" transitioned. It's clearly bigger than a game of pool for "her". But she should accept that regardless of her feelings she was born a man and went through part puberty, she has attributes and hormones that other women don't. She is free to play in the "open" category. Also has been assured that ANYONE making her feel uncomfortable by their words or actions will be removed from the tour and banned...So there is zero reason she should not accompany the few women who DO choose to play in the open tour...rather than the women's tour.

Diddy Posted Wednesday at 21:11 Share Posted Wednesday at 21:11 Read a post from Harriet today. Trans rights are still protected characteristic due to atricle.....I forget the number. But the upshot is for Pool in particular we still need to await the outcome of the hearing which was 5 days long at Canterbury court. Judgement expected in June/July. She was/is suing for discrimination.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daz2905 Posted yesterday at 11:53 Share Posted yesterday at 11:53 This nonsense really needs to stop. They're men and should compete against other men, stay out of women-only places, and accept that they have rights like everyone else but need to adapt, rather than expect the rest of the world to adapt to them. Too many wierdos and sex offenders have jumped on this trans bandwagon, making it impossible for anything but a black and white ruling in the eyes of the law. I caught a bit of the news yesterday and one of them was claiming they make up 1% of the population. That's a big number and if it's true, then they should start organising their own leagues and competitions rather than trying to gain the advantage over others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
