    I don’t think there’s no reason. I think the insistence of having trans women in women’s sports is causing massive controversy, as is self-Id and it’s knock on effects.

    You can keep pretending it’s totally random if you want, but, I don’t know if it achieves anything

      None of the people who get worked up about the idea of women’s sports being open to all women gave a shit about women’s sports before they realised it could be used as a cudgel against trans people. It is completely disingenuous and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

        That’s a disingenuous lie.

        People are interested in sports and fair play.

        When they see a trans woman breaking records for powerlifting and beating their nearest competitor by 400lbs, then yes, they have a problem with that.

        The fact that you don’t, how’s just how callous you are to women.

        Just treat women with respect, and don’t treat their sports as your political sandbox.

      Transwomen have been competing in women’s sports for decades with no complaint right up until the right wing needed an excuse to go after them, self id has no effect on anything other the beaurocracy around changing legal documents.

      Neither are a good excuse to push for repealing the GRA.

        The more trans women that compete in women’s sports the more people take notice of the absurdity.

        So yes, more people are noticing because the examples are so egregious.

        A new female power lifting champ in Canada, breaking records for women, beating her nearest competition by 400lbs - please for fuck sake, show some compassion to the women who are having theirs sports destroyed.

      Trans people will play sports while you and the shrinking minority of bigots you represent will cry and seethe about it.
