UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov thinks the gender discourse in America is absolutely insane.
Debates about gender in America have hit a deafening pitch, and the topic is incredibly divisive. Specifically, people in growing numbers have had enough of men destroying and dominating women’s sports. Ever since Lia Thomas got in the pool for Penn, there’s been a massive shift.
People simply aren’t okay with ignoring biological realities when it comes to male and female athletes and what locker rooms should be used. You can now add the Russian fighter to the list of people who think it’s crazy.
Khabib Nurmagomedov says there’s only two genders.
“I grew up in very traditional place with a very traditional family. I am very happy with this. I’m from big mountains, and we have only two genders,” Khabib told Patrick Bet-David during a recent interview.
He also spoke about being in California and being utterly confused by bathrooms that were not separated by genders. It’s clear he doesn’t have one second of time for people who believe all the gender nonsense.
Check out the clip below.
Khabib didn’t mince words with his thoughts on how many genders there are.
That’s about as blunt as it gets when it comes to thoughts on gender in America and the rest of the world.
Khabib truly didn’t even seem to understand what PBD was asking at first. More than two genders? Yeah, that’s not something he’s going to entertain.
“I see only woman and man. There is no between,” he stated with a matter of fact tone. Yeah, that doesn’t leave much room for disagreement.
We live in a time where speaking out is pretty rare. People fear losing their jobs, being ostracized by society and having their reputations destroyed for believing there are only two genders. Imagine explaining this situation to someone a decade ago. Nobody would have believed we’d be here, but we are. Fortunately, it feels like the tide is turning. Khabib Nurmagomedov speaking out is just the latest sign of that fact.
What’s crazy is Khabib trained at AKA in San Jose, probably the most liberal city to have a truly elite MMA gym.
And what’s even crazier is what happened to his teammate, Cain Velasquez, whose son was sexually abused at his daycare, and how the law benefits the abuser and excuses his behavior, deeming him a “minor attracted individual”, allowing him to go free on bail, while Cain was locked up for months without bail, for simply defending his young child.
The fact that Islam Machachev still trains there is baffling to me. No gym or coach is worth selling out on your own personal beliefs.
