and also, what do you suggest for trans people? they can’t control being trans, so why should they not be able to engage in “normal” things such as playing sports

They should. With their birth genders. Or have a separate third league that’s open to all.

if this trans athlete does suffer from gender dysphoria, playing in a league with cis males could be very harmful for them. there are just not that many trans athletes and i think a league would be pointless

Open to all. Not open to only trans. Your feelings do not outweigh the rights of women. I don’t understand why this purely narcissistic view isn’t challenged more often on the basis of selfishness. Why do you believe trans people should be held above others in this way? The invasion of men in womens sports isn’t fair to women. The womens bench press record could be doubled tomorrow if a male professional strongman transitioned.

i don’t believe so. i think they should be held to the same as cis women. i am going to leave this chat to do other stuff, but thanks for talking with me about this! 🤍
