editThis entire article reads as unnecessary, clearly biased, and weighs almost totally on the words of a single "Stoyan Francis." I just don't see the benefit of maintaining a page like this. (Walker Snarling) (talk) 04:29, 10 April 2018 (UTC)
- A lazy Google search of the term "Oppression Olympics" currently comes up with more than one million results, the first few pages of which appear to be of a diverse nature across an extended period of time. The concept is therefore apparently "acknowledged" if not necessarily "agreed upon" in terms of definition, scope, etc. Harami2000 (talk) 14:52, 15 January 2020 (UTC)
Capitalization consistency
editThe article is titled "Oppression olympics" (with a lowercase *o* in *olympics*), whereas the article uses a capital *O* in *Olympics* every time. Almost all of the references in the article (the ones with "Oppression Olympics" in the title, at least use a capital *O* in *Olympics*. Dave Rubin has also used the term "Oppression Olympics" with a capital *O*.[1][2] Therefore, I propose changing the name of the article to "Oppression Olympics" and adding a redirect at "Oppression olympics". 64.112.178.0 (talk) 00:28, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

Added Clean Up and Removed Francis Quotes
editJust ran across this page and noticed quite a lot of anti-trans bias in the tone of the quotes given, so I added some tags for clean up and removed the two quotes (both by a Stoyan Francis). Generally, it seems as though this article is someone's pet essay/complaints, so it feels like an easy way to have a lot of neutrality disputes. Hmelad (talk) 09:27, 7 May 2019 (UTC)
Oppression Paralympics
editHas IOC, Team USA, or any other organization in the Olympic movement commented on this term? I remember they are notoriously litigious about their trademarks. --Damian Yerrick (talk) 18:16, 6 March 2020 (UTC)
Current hierarchy - citations
editI searched for quite a while for a citation by Hancock concerning the "current hierarchy" placing trans men on top but couldn't find any. Martinvie (talk) 14:49, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
