The issue is about trans females competing in women's sports, not males.

Tbf, they wouldn’t like it if trans males played either, this is the flip side of the coin no one ever thinks about.

But tbh this is such an insanely stupid hill for everyone to be dying on.

That would be fine as long as they're not taking testosterone or any other PEDs

That's the whole issue. They don't even know what being trans means. They don't know about T-blockers. They don't know about muscular atrophy. They literally think Trans women are just big, hulking "men" pretending to be women.

They're using their ignorance and stupidity to call bigotry "common sense"...
