so another one in the saga of my failed ideas bin.

Transgender Olympics.

It's a good concept, in theory...but it would never get off the ground.

Nobody would take it seriously. Well, most people might not. It would be a fad and then soon die. But i wouldn't want to turn transsexuality into any more of a media circus than it already is (sad, but true, folks).

I thought about how being trans, i could never compete in the Olympic Games (even if i HAD talent like that anymore) and win anything. I would be stripped of any medals i had won, and unceremoniously at that. *sigh*

there should be an Olympic qualification for transmen and transwomen of each sport. since transmen are on T and that's a no-no...maybe they could go by dosage and how far into transition you are in order to come up with class division for each event. and transwomen the same. it's a neat-o idea...but i would never want to see the media shit-storm go all haywire like it does the second anybody who is noticeably outside of the gender binary attempts to make him/her self known to the outside world (i.e.- the pregnant man)...

and speaking of the pregnant man...that's an entirely different story. don't even get me started.

well, off to work! *groan*
