Transgender MMA fighter Fallon Fox

The transgender MMA fighter should be treated equally as anybody else should be treated. Yes she does have an advantage, but it is similar to the advantage of being extremely tall and a basketball player. The only part where she wronged was not telling the company about her transgender sooner. She said that that was her personal information, and this is true but if something that big is hidden it is not okay. There should be some type of penalty for her lies. It is not fair to other athletes to not know exactly who they are fighting against. Going into the match with some type of technique, because they know that their opponent is transgender would make it more fair.

     If i was an athlete and a transgender opponent were to be against me it would motivate me more than anything has in my entire life. Obviously with MMA fighting the transgender has an advantage so that would make more women take their jobs seriously, and aspire to be better athletes all around. Transgenders in sports is a very good thing. All it's going to do or ever will do is motivate others do better.

     This should be handled by letting the transgendered people live their lives and not interfering. We are all equal underneath our skin and that's how we should be treated. You put me in the feet of the opponent, but how would you feel if you were that transgendered person being forced out of a sport that they love? it was not their choice to be transgender, Fox even said she tried to hide it but you cannot hide the person you actually are on the inside. As long as the fact that you are a transgender is known you should be able to do as you please.

Sports

      A sport is a sport if there is friendly competition. Sports should always have some type of competition to try and make the athletes try harder every day to improve. Sports should require physical strength. Something that requires almost absolutely no talent should not be considered a sport. Sports should not be easy, but they should make you want to be better. What is used in the sport, such as a ball or bat should not matter. For example: Dance requires strength, passion, and determination. Instead of using a ball and reacting quickly to things that happen we have a planned out dance and sometimes props. Every sport is unique in their own way.

     Anything that is a sport has some type of fan base. What is a sport without the supporting fans? The fans can also push the athletes to become better. They cheer them on and inspire them to become better for themselves. Sports should be competitive. some sports compete with other teams on a daily basis but anything that is a sport should have some type of championship, or Nationals where they can go to compete farther with better teams. this is also a good way to push yourself to get better. Seeing more people and having more experiences can only help.

     Sports should have passion. If you don't have passion for something you are doing on a daily basis, why even bother? Passion takes a big factor in dance. Dancing is a sport because it is extremely competitive. There are so many dancers that are amazing in this world that just push you to be better. In sports i feel like you should always have something to push you further. That is why every sport requires a coach to do so.
