Change the PDGA Policy on Eligibility for Gender-Restricted Divisions

It's not a popular opinion, but i believe being born male is an inherent physical advantage over being born female regardless of science and hormone treatments. PDGA needs to abandon IOC guidelines since they disc golf is not an Olympic event and IOC judgment is incorrect (in my view).

It's really dumb that we would actually have to do this...

My wife stopped playing competitive disc golf because of having to compete against transgender woman. How is it fair to play against a 6’4” male that throws 400’ wearing a miniskirt in an amateur division? The whole idea of a male transitioning to a female, and wanting to play competitive sports in a female division is ridiculous. Play with the males, against people with the same attributes as yourself.

This is ridiculous that we have to sign this. Cmon pdga!

No transgenders in the sport don't make it unfair to the women!

Transgender omen should have a separate division

Let us play our game. These divisions are gender protected for this reason.

Yeah. The world is a crazy place.

However one identifies themselves, there are certain physical realities thar are unavoidable. Should a 21 year old be allowed to compete in the 65+ category because they identify as a retiree? What is the purpose of having skill, age and gender protected divisions, anyway?

I belive the PDGA should take a review on the “gender inclusive” rules they have put into place. There is no way a biological man “transitioning” into a woman should be allowed to play with women who are biologically and physically incapable of achieving the same things as a man!

Done

It is not right to have transgenders playing in the women's divisions we have worked hard to get other females to play disc golf and now why would they want to because everyone knows males can out throw females even if they are transgenders it's in there genetics. Pdga should make a transgender division to be fair in playing for them and for the females (cisgender) .

Women worked too hard to have their own gender protected divisions in sports to have it all taken away. The PDGA should be boycotted until they right this wrong.

Give them their own division and leave the women alone! Pick on someone your own sex.

I will not be a member or participate in any PDGA event until the transgender policy allowing men to compete with my mother, sisters, and future daughters in the women's divisions is changed.

I will not renew my membership nor participate in PDGA events until the transgender rule allowing men to compete with my wife and daughters is changed.

I will never be a member or play PDGA sanctioned tournaments again until the women's divisions are protected.

If the PDGA wants to continue being fair to all competitors then this rule must be changed. It is my opinion that once a male always a male inside unless you have hormone therapy and your testosterone levels are that of other female competitors. If transgender PDGA members wish to compete outside of their born gender then the pdga should make a division 4 transgender competitors to make it fair for all.

I miss the old days. Men knew who the women were, women knew who the men were, men knew who the men were, and women knew who the women were.
