Aight, We Need to Get Some Things Straight About 'Genetic Gender'

What do you think? Should someone with XY chromosomes who is anatomically female identify with their female body and anatomy or with their male genetics?

2:22 Brief overview of the ongoing gender conversation
5:05 Doctor explains DSDs

Thank you for joining! Here on The Nerdy Christian we talk things 1) culture and media, 2) Christian faith and theology, 3) world affairs, history, geopolitics, etc. and 4) the interplay of all three of those things. If that's something you're into, be sure to subscribed and stick around!

8:13 Physiological boost indeed. There have been several notable XYDSD athletes who've won in the female category over the decades, especially in recent years, and it's finally coming to people's attention.

The bigger issue here is that mens sports are basically single-sex but the women's category is populated by both females AND males (transwomen and those with XYDSDs).

It's not that females are barred from the male category necessarily, its just that the reality of the physical differences in males and females means that female players overwhelmingly cant make the cut for the men's team. And males with DSDs or males on cross-sex hormones also struggle to make it either and find better success on the women's team.

This means that functionally speaking, mens sports is essentially for 'biotypical' males and female sports is for basically everyone else. As a result we have an increasingly crowded female category that that has the disproportionate burden of including athletes of both sexes who now have to now compete against each other and share the limited number of prizes in the female category. Do you see how that's problematic?

Biotypical males get the privilege of just competing with each other but biotypical females are being forced to compete, not just with each other, but also with people with male anatomy or some mix of characteristics, and people who've gone through a partial or full male puberty with all the associated advantages.

We're specifically burdening female athletes with something we are not burdening male athletes with and I find this patently unfair. Women deserve the opportunity to compete in fairness and safety in a single sex category just as the men functionally do all the time. Making women's sports the 'catch-all' category for everyone that's genetically or physiologically atypical is like diving sports into "Men" and "Non-Men", a very sexist proposition.

As your sister in Christ, please don't assume that those of us with concerns are ignorant, uniformed, or being 'hoodwinked by the enemy'.

Excellent presentation and I thank you for it
Just one comment and that is when you use the word Christians or hoodwink I’m afraid that too many people just are watching your video casually will think that the deception is the boxer trying to do the deceiving whereas the reality is the Christians who were doing the deceiving and this is true all over the country on this particular Topic and yes, I’m a Christian and yes, at face value. I was thinking what everybody else was thinking that this person the boxer was a trans person that simply wasn’t the case and all of us Christians thinking that need to be repenting right now because the harm is already done, and that is what is sad
Great video I can just imagine how much time it took for you to research this and we appreciate it

So you deny the scriptures in favor of secular progressive talking points. He is as much a female as you are a Christian

Considering the information that has come out... Naw he was just a man.
