Your thinly veiled bigotry is still just bigotry, despite hiding it behind a strawman
Jokes on you, I can’t list 10 male athletes either!
im not even sure i could list 10 athletes of any gender lol
I can’t list ten of anything if you put me on the spot.
reckon i could probably manage “numbers” 👍🏿
In total, sure. There’s enough (in)famous athletes between football, tennis, golf, racing, etc.
Active athletes from one type of sport? No chance.
shrug Unless you’re trying to gatekeep who can and can’t play sports…
If we’re talking OF ALL TIME names then i can manage maybe 15. I still only got to 6 women :/
The ones I can name?
LeBron James
Shaq
Michael Jordan
OJ Simpson
Magic Johnson
Babe Ruth
Lance Armstong
Tony Hawk
Jeff Gordon
Dale Earnhardt
Dale Earnhardt Jr.
Mike Tyson
And all of them mostly because of memes… isn’t it telling that the only white guy on the list in a competitive team sport is from a time before black people were allowed to compete, because it was believed that being black gave you an “unfair advantage”
History really does repeat itself
Now I know there are plenty of white NFL and NBA athletes, but… how often do they show up in movies alongside Bugs Bunny or wind up in fighting games from 80’s and 90’s?
I actually had Danica Patrick on the list, but then I remembered she’s a woman…
and I only know her because of her highly inappropiate and questionable appearance in Sonic And Sega All-Stars Racing Transformed
The only character that had less of a reason to be there was Yogscast, a Minecraft Youtuber who didn’t even know what Sonic was prior to being in the game… You pick your celebrity endorsement deals well Sega
I also almost included Trayvon Marten, but then I remembered he wasn’t an athlete…
Ya know it’s fucked that famous black men in the modern day fall into three categories
-
Musicians forced to sing about criminality by a label who will drop them the second they stop living up to the stereotype then turn around and have that music used as a condemnation of their own race by bigots like Shaprio
-
Athletes praised purely for their physical achievements and never their academic ones
-
Regular people who spark social justice movements they never asked for by getting shot to death by some bigot.
And the one exception is a President who created the divided America we see today not by anything he did wrong, but by simply being a successful skilled black man in a station that bigots were convinced only whitey could have.

Ten female athletes is easy. 10 currently active professional athletes would be much harder
10 currently active trans women athletes that have gold medals. Make it impossible for them.
I can obly think of one transwoman with gold medals and that’s Caitlyn Jenner
That was won when Caitlyn was Bruce so did they really win it?
Yes they did win it but not in competition as a woman.
I’m not into any sports at all, of any kind. I dont think I could even name 10 athletes in total - either male or female.
I’m also pretty sure that wouldn’t be a blocker on me having a meaningful discussion about trans inclusivity in sports
Well yeah, you don’t care about either side of the issue, you just care about inclusivity. The meme is making a point that most people that make these comments aren’t caring because they actually care about both sports (which would be the opposite of your situation), but because they are just bigots.
Solid point, applies to abortion too. I don’t know anything about the process and I’ll frequently see a reason for abortion and think “that’s another good reason”, and that’s why I believe in pro choice, things aren’t simple and banning abortion doesn’t help anyone.
Name 10 women? USA soccer team! There, I just named at least 11, I don’t know their names one by one, but that doesn’t mean I don’t admire them and like how they play. So, can I now give my opinion on the matter? I would like to see sport categories based on testosterone levels instead of gender.
We’ll soon know if trans people in sport are a real problem or a made up problem - if there’s anything to it, the next Chinese Olympics team will be 90% trans people.
yep, people should stop making bullshit arguments about things they don’t give shits about, there’s no need to discuss sports if you don’t care about sports (like me) just like there’s no need to discuss computers if you don’t care about computers
10 athletes? Shit, I bet they wouldn’t even be able to name ten teams.
Oh shit, that’s much better at getting to the point than asking “So if Lia Thomas had an unfair advantage, you’ll be all on board for confiscating the medals of the people who beat her until we can get an investigation going?”
Heck the only female athletes I can name are the transwomen who keep getting involved in these debacles, The Venus Sisters, and the female fake jock to Elon’s male fake nerd herself, Rhonda Rousey, aka the second worst voice actor that Mortal Kombat has ever had.
Seriously Megan Fox, I know you’re better than this, how the fuck did you manage to sound like someone reading off a card when you’re voicing a blood-addicted killer vampire with big beautiful wings? For the love of fuck, why can’t you have fun with this like John Cena did? I mean even Not-Anthony voicing Homelander seems to be enjoying himself even though he keeps turning his Homelander impression into a Jack Nicholson on certain lines for some fucking reason.
10? That’s an overkill. I bet they can’t even name 2.
The only athletes I can name are professional athletes in the major leagues of football, basketball, and soccer. Some are retired by now, I’m sure. Olympic athletes and athletes in any other sport or league are unknown to me unless they make the news for some non-athletic reason.
Make it a requirement that they are currently active. Pretty unfair if they are naming Mia Hamm, Tonya Harding, and Billy Jean King. Pretty hilarious if they name Caitlyn Jenner.
If it includes retired/dead sports people, then I could do 10 males and females. But currently active…no on both.
