OJ Simpson claims that he has “tried to stay away” from the debate regarding transgender women participating in women’s sports, but he could not keep quiet any longer. And he even has a plan to address the issue.
In a video posted to his Twitter account last week, OJ Simpson made it clear that he does not support transgender women participating in women’s sports.
“A senator in South Carolina stated ‘What if Mike Tyson decides to identify as female?’ Are you going to let him box women? I don’t think so,” Simpson said in the video. “I’m a golfer, and trust me, you could take probably the 350th rated male golfer, now that we know women are making all this money, but if he decides that he wants to identify as a female, trust me he would probably be a top ten female golfer.”

But Simpson had a plan to solve this problem: create a new category of sports.
“It just isn’t fair. If you’re born a male or a female, I don’t think it’s fair in sports to have them competing against one another. Give them their own category. Let the trans compete against trans, the female against the females and the male against the males,” Simpson said.
He’s certainly entitled to his opinions, but most people in the comments suggested that Simpson should probably refrain from giving his thoughts on how women should be treated given that he was a suspect in his wife’s murder trial.
