So, I’ve had moments in the past where I might have spent 30 seconds thinking about this subject but ultimately I don’t give a fuck about competitive sports so my analysis usually ends up being, all competitive sports should be banned because competitive sports are dumb. Which is admittedly a neanderthal take.
But yeah, now the global athletic showdown is going down and seemingly everyone in my immediate vicinity keeps clutching their pearls and I guess I’m sick of not being able to advocate for trans comrades appropriately and articulate a proper response.
So what’s a better response besides, “who cares?” Am I missing something? Like, if all things were equitable, what would or should competitions look like?
Help me out. I honestly have no idea.
The only negative consequence here is people like you who continue to talk complete nonsense regarding trans people’s bodies, while having no understanding what transitioning actually does to a person’s biology. Trans women who are on HRT do not produce more testosterone than their cis counterpart, so this whole discussion surrounding “male hormones” is getting really tiring.
I was trying to bait the rabid transphobia to the surface for a report but it looks like our mods got it already.
