I’m just curious, has any strangers’ genitalia impacted you in any way that actually matters? And no sports don’t count no one gives a shit about the .1% of athletes who are trans and how much of an AdVaNtAgE they have.
From where I’m sitting, people just need to shut the hell up about other people’s lives. They impact you in no way. Yet you impact their lives, taking their rights away and driving them to suicide. These types of comments literally contribute to suicide. Your comment could be the last straw for someone reading it, and they could choose to end their life because of you. And you sleep at night fine I’m sure. You should care about what that says about you.
Other people have hard lives and you don’t need to make them harder. Deal with your own shit. Let others do their best to deal with theirs.
People do give a shit about sports, because that’s what’s always in the news.
I don’t care what you do privately. If you want to engage in some competition though, there’s rules and regulations and it’s important that everyone is on an even playing field. That’s the whole point about the different divisions.
My comment about having different divisions because you genetically decided to modify yourself may cause someone to end their life? I don’t think so champ.
I fight people and have opinions! Main thing right now being HEMA, mostly blunted axe + shield sparring. It’s mixed-gender and my experience is that men and women are pretty competitive with each other. I’ve also fenced competitively, which has male and female divisions but men and women practice against each other all the time. Across both sports, height is far, far more important than sex. Like if you’re 5’10", you inherently have an advantage in reaching your 5’6" opponent, whether they’re male or female. People focus on sex like it’s sufficient to equalize genetic advantages and “level the playing field” but think of the difference between the shortest man you know and the tallest man you know. Would you honestly say they’re on an even playing field in every sport because of their sex classification?
It really depends a lot on the sport, hormones and time do a lot more than you’d think, and male/female divisions aren’t a level playing field to begin with in many sports. Also sure, there is a reasonable discussion to have at a professional level, but in most sports at anything less than the most elite level it’s such a non issue. Anyone pushing to police it in kids’ sports via genital inspection has lost their minds.

Think about women’s sports!
Which women’s sports do you play or watch ?
