I’m not gonna get into another row about your open bigotry tbh, so I’m gonna leave it at that for the day


Sadly you are so hell bent on labelling people you fail to see the logic...

The want to remove various rights for trans people is transphobic and anti-trans, yet people mask it as something else to make themselves feel better about themselves.

Either the removal of certain demographics rights is bad or it’s not, but certain people are quite happy to pick and choose when it’s okay to take peoples rights away as it suits them

The right being removed in this case is the right for women to compete against only other women. Women only competing against women, or transwomen competing against women - two ideas which contradict each other. Women and transwomen can't simulateously be catered to in this situation.

Isn't it only an issue when the transwomen beat them? you don't hear about all the times transwomen compete and don't win.

So do you think transwomen should be able to compete against women then? If so why do we have any sex categories at all in sport?
