Anyone who follows women’s sports knows this. We had a trans player, Quinn, who played for my team, the Reign. They were a good holding midfielder, and a delight to have on the team, but it’s not like they were bodying people off the ball left and right or ripping bangers from 40 yards out all the time. We sent them to the Vancouver Rise (I think because they wanted to return to their native Canada once the NSL launched), and replaced them with a cis woman, Ainsley McCammon, and it was all very fine and normal. There is no threat to women’s sports from trans inclusivity.
The lgbt community, famously known for being great at sports, so good that they cannot fairly compete with the straight community.
Lesbians are objectively the backbone of women’s sports.
Yes, the existing cisgender gay stereotypes make the trans sports stereotypes make no sense.
“Lesbians are so good at sports they can sometimes beat men at said sports, and that’s why when they start taking testosterone (the performance enhancing drug) to become super-lesbians, they become suddenly terrible at sports and can’t compete with men, and that’s why trans men can’t compete against men.”
“Gay men are wimpy sissies who are only good at musical theatre and can’t change a tire, that’s why they easily dunk on cis women in all sports including basketball when they finally succumb to sissy-hypno and become bimbo strippers or whatever.”
It was never about a real threat. Perceived threat is enough for conservatives because they’re so in touch with their feelings 👀
But, but, but Riley Gaines TIED FOR FIFTH! She had to settle for a sixth place ribbon for the same reasons any other swimmer would’ve gotten one and the same situation, because of a TRANS athlete! HOW OS THAT FAIR!?
/s in case I’m really good at /s
In other news, water is wet
Filed under “duh”. Women’s sports are separate because men kept losing to them in co-ed sports.
The anti trans shit is just about finding a misogyny that you can legalize
