Transgender nrl players

I find it disturbing how the nrl has lifted the band aid off, and has ruled out transgender people from playing footy. I feel there should be a sprinkle of every sexual orientation throughout all sports and specially the wnrl and nrl.They seem to have a strong cult with religion throughout all sports. Why should your sexual orientation be any different.? I think this is the perfect time to get onboard for sponsors in the LGBTQIA community to feel welcome in the NRL. It would bring millions more dollars to the game and corporate sponsors,.It’s just my thought any way.What are your thoughts?

  • On what basis do you opine " it will bring millions more  dollars to the game and corporate sponsors " ?

    • Hi Frankie Fong, who is this super ? Is he a transgender Eels supporter? I'm so glad the eels have a trans follower, I hope everyone treats him with dignity and respect, kudos to you super! I hope you can comment on my blog and discuss what your thoughts on this subject. 

  • There would be many LGBTQIA big hitters throughout the community, I feel  they would love nothing more to feel welcomed and suppprted in mainly male dominated sport. 
    There are so many whining supporters who think the half time entertainment is atrocious, imagine the talent of vocal artist out there who have a different sexual orientation and could express them selves into the community for young and vibrant young males and females out there to not hide and be who they want to be. You could have the all sorts of flags n the stadium as well as the eels flag, the Eels could also adopt and LGBTQIA symbol on their jersey. 
    I really think this would be a great opportunity for the nrl and Parramatta to bolster what they are, we would be seen on the world stage as a new beginning for all sports.

    • I would just like to see the return of full strength beer with added attraction of bar waiters bringing it down the aisles between stadium rows . 

      • Drizza, exactly! even if they  do hire transgender bar staff to serve and deliver drinks, no one should feel excluded in their occupation.

        • Exactly Ms Wong . I can't wait to read Mr Fong's response to your posts . 

  • I find it totally hypocritical. How can they tell everyone that trans " women " are actually women but then exclude them from women's sport ? It's either one or the other.   Let's not forget , it was women who came out in the first place and demanded these blokes are included in their sports and any straight white man who disagreed were transphobic bigots.  Now fuck me dead if us transphobic bigots were right all along , these dudes are excelling at being women so the women want them out lol.  

    It's almost as if the straight white men who said trans people need their own events and toilets were correct and the flag waiving social justice Warriors who shouted us down for their own self gratification were horribly wrong . 

     

    You know what,  I'm against this new ruling  now and I think women should have to live with what they sow. Let the trannies show them true equality by competing in women's sport.

    • You do realise the only way to be rid of it once and for all is to let the loonies battle it out for the biggest victim card. This is exactly what's happening.  Make them live with their choices.

  • Wiz, it's about what is right for the individual, if they feel they have the inner makeup as the opposite sex that's ok, I'll think it's a great time for everyone to be included and stop the hate in sport in general. I think it would be a great idea to buy gay pride flags outside of the stadium and wave them around loud and proud .
