There are weight classes in all forms of professional fighting. Fox (who has retired) was a featherweight, and there’s an upper limit to that class. She wasn’t going to be fighting women 50 pounds lighter than herself. 

“Aside from your flawed analogy of a trans female just being a fraudulently souped up vanilla male”
lol
I agree it wasn’t very well thought-out, bad attempt.  

Ban tall women from MMA?

That’s why we have state fight commissions to (theoretically) protect fighters from themselves and their bad decisions because money is involved, and prevent mixed gender sanctioned fighting. Enough people who were physically even with their opponent have died or been permanently injured, for there ever to be an…

After a year or so on HRT, all competitive advantages disappear thanks to the persistent lack of testosterone, and some competitive disadvantages appear like reduced bone density. This is because cis women have SOME testosterone, and trans women will have basically NO testosterone, which makes it even harder to meet…

I genuinely suspect some of her issues were caused by Perlmutter, and that with him gone they were able to mend some fences with her.

Locking Rosetta up was a bad decision.  Prohibiting police from making a decision on the spot to arrest people might also be a bad decision.  Ultimately, there is a human element and there are not enough people who only make good decisions and both want to be police and qualify to be police.  Too many of them want to…

That aircraft was not fit for human accommodation and was in fact, a biohazard.

Another reason I love Elizabeth Warren. She used to be a Republican until she had firsthand experience with the mortgage industry. She changed her thinking and admitted she was wrong. She got baited into that genealogy gaffe, recognized who she’d hurt, and apologized.

Presented without comment. This is real.

SJWality!

I’ll tell Sub-Zero to be on standby.

I refuse to engage in conversation who views the idea of “social justice warrior” as a bad thing.

Well, it turns out Gaga doesn’t care about Black girls and women as the Pedophile Kelly collaboration illustrated. White women calling themselves feminists tend to leave much to be desired.

He doesn’t care and isn’t actually sorry, that’s why. He’s just upset that the incident was public and could mar the cleaned up image he wants to project. Also, I’m so thankful for the brothers who come to our aid, since so often sisters the only ones who save ourselves (while saving others).

Dre essentially turned the incident into a joke on Eminem’s Slim Shady album. F. Gary Gray was her camera man and he went on to direct the NWA biopic. Women had a huge part in the success of hip-hop and had to do it under ridiculous circumstances. I hope her story gets to be told.

Yeah, it makes the headphone name extra gross too.

It was long ago, but I remember. And I loathe him to this day. I saw Straight Outta Compton once. I’ve been unable to bring myself to watch the HBO documentary. I wish for him to someday get his comeuppance and to be deeply haunted by the evil he’s done. The way he’s been sanitized is what allowed the headphone deal…

Blessings to Dee Barnes. Hopefully she and her daughter will get the help she needs and transitions into work that is fulfilling for her. Unfortunately so many in the urban music/black communities are prone to just write off her situation as being “payback” for whatever she “instigated” 25+ years ago with the Dre…

Same with the map request. I doubt it though.
