What do you believe about legalization of doping in sports? Several persons believe that it is time to legalize it. Others are against it. What do you think?
Those who are against legalization of doping in sports think that anabolic steroids and other related medicines represent essential evil. They may cause severe unwanted results in consumers. Furthermore, a doper has unfair advantage over a non-doper during competitions.
According to another opinion, administration of anabolic steroids and other doping products should be allowed in sports. Let sportspersons apply whatever they want! If they desire to administer steroids, let them do it! If they intend to use other medications, let them do it! If they want to use several drugs, let physicians supervise their application! Doctors know what their patients should do in order to avoid several undesirable effects. Thus, performance-enhancing drugs will not lead to serious side results. As a result, application of anabolic steroids and other related medications will be relatively safe for health and life of users.
As you know, anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs are currently forbidden in sports. When sportspersons are suspected and/or found guilty of doping, scandals appear. Such situations are frequently discussed during TV shows, in magazines, newspapers, on internet, etc. You must know that each scandal usually contains not only truth but also gossips, exaggerations, etc. As a result, you can’t be sure whether several affirmations are true or not.
Those that are against legalization of doping in sports believe that sportspersons enhance performance unnaturally with the help of anabolic steroids and other related drugs. Speaking about enhancement of athletic performance, you should not forget about enhancement of sexual performance, cognitive skills, improvement of health, etc. Why do we use some drugs and supplements, improving our health and life, while demonizing sportspersons who try to promote performance with anabolic steroids and other doping products? Is it fairly? You would note that anabolic steroids and some other doping products lead to health problems. Yes, it is true. But what do you consider about usage of caffeine and nicotine? They are accepted in the society. But it is necessary to notice that caffeine and nicotine result in more serious health troubles than anabolic steroids and other related medicines. Nonetheless, consumers of caffeine and nicotine are not so harshly demonized, as consumers of steroids.
Anti-doping agencies hope that they will soon eradicate doping from sports. “Competitions will be fair”, - they exclaim. But it is needed to realize that doping will be never eliminated from sports. Anti-doping officials will not be ever able to do it. While they elaborate new methods of detection and increase penalties for intake of banned substances, sportspersons find new ways to avoid detection. So, anyone should understand that this conflict will never end, if doping is not permitted in sports.
