Rose Of Tralee now accepting trans applicants (Threadbanned List in OP)

If they all identified as female and they are allowed to enter, then why wouldn't it be acceptable?

And you still haven't explained how they directly conflict with biological females rights?

So, if you believe that it would be acceptable, in a hypothetical scenario, for 100% of Rose of Tralee participants to be biological males, who self-identify as women; then I can't really argue against that.

That, to me, is a position of faith.

And like all positions of faith, no evidence or argument could possibly be produced to sway your opinion on the matter, as you'll always find a way to make it work. Hence why I always refer to theologians; who also always make their belief work through their own set of bizarre linguistic acrobatics. And that's their right - and for similar reasons, I take issue with them too.

And on the conflict question you raise, I've thrice mentioned that, if a biological male who self-identifies as a woman takes the place of a biological woman in what's classified as a woman's competition, then that biological woman has been discriminated against. That would have been her position, and now it has been occupied by a biological male who self-identifies as a woman. That is a direct conflict, in exactly the same way that it's a conflict when a biological male who identifies as a woman takes the place of a biological woman in a given sport. The principle remains the same. I don't care who wins, that's neither here nor there as far as I'm concerned; what I'm concerned about is the biological category in competitions and how biological women are displaced by biological males who self-identify as women.

The same is true of the Rose of Tralee.

How would that impact my argument, even if it were true?

Only biological women should enter women's competitions.

In fairness, Eskimo has previously objected to two male dancers in Strictly Come Dancing... And sure nobody watches that now cause audiences just wouldn't stand for it... :D

And the contest has far more to do with gender... You've not demonstrated large-scale objections from potential contestants or even former contestants cause most simply don't mind, that's the reality.

Cool, so back to the absence of any real objections being proof. And also the reality is the competition chose to change the rules. In this case, transgender contestants have been allowed for years, they have simply chosen to explicitly enshrine it in the rules. Miss Universe also allows transgender contestants and have for years. The only real outcry tends to be from people who have it in for transgender people at every turn.
