LPGA to Change Gender Requirement
 

Sick! Sex change now being recognized in sports. Imagine how this might change sports like women's basketball.

"The players voted to remove the “female at birth” requirement from the tour’s constitution at a year-end meeting at the LPGA Tour Championship, commissioner Michael Whan said"

“I think it is a major civil rights victory,” Christopher Dolan, an attorney for Lawless, told The Associated Press in a phone interview Wednesday. “We are pleased that the LPGA has voted to end this archaic and outdated policy.”

Are you serious?

Re: LPGA to Change Gender Requirement
 

Yup. Can't compete with the guys? Snip it and clip it and compete with the gals.

It was probably put in there to prevent just this type of thing.

Oh yes, it's going to be a HUGE change in the athletic world. This could turn the WNBA upside down. I know for sure that all the guys that aren't quite good enough to make it in the NBA are going to be racing down to their local sex-change surgeon so they can become a woman and a basketball star. I hear there's already a line forming.

Wasn't there a case in this past Olympics where a runner was running with the women as a woman and they found out he was male?

Re: LPGA to Change Gender Requirement
 

No, she was proven to be female. They put the poor girl through hell.

I didn't know this is such a regular occurrence in golf, or any other sport. That they actually had that question.
