Legit surprised to see many of these blatantly transphobic posts still up.
It's the least surprising thing ever

Fun fact: This also prevents FtM people from competing with guys
That's ridiculous if true

"Mens" sports have never been segregated (Sexually, you know what i mean) and there's no reason not to allow biological women to play no matter their gender, they just don't because of skill level

Not allowing a fTm to play is bonkers

I can see the argument for "They can't play if they are on drugs that will effect peformance" but that's even worse if you're making them play women

That's just bigotry

I've thought this over before and there just doesn't seem to be a good solution that is fair to everyone. Forcing trans women to compete with men puts trans women at a disadvantage. Forcing cis women to compete with trans women puts the cis women at a disadvantage. When there isn't a clear answer the best fit solution is the one which hurts the least number of people, which in this case would ban trans women from competing against cis women. Its a shitty solution and I don't like it but if a league consists of, say, 100 cis women and 1 trans woman then you take the option that is unfair to 1 person over the option that is unfair to 100 people.

The flipside that sucks is that trans men don't face this quandary. Men's sports has pretty much always been about whoever can perform the best and if they have the chops to perform at the top then they'd get in even if they were cis women. The entire point of having a women's league is to define who is and is not allowed to play in it.

Soldiers pulling their own weight should not be the requirement.

There should be an average weight of all soldiers. And then the training should have them be able to carry that weight for a certain distance.

Because on the battlefield, you'd need to be able to carry your comrades out of danger if they are shot.

Hopefully Biden will step up and do an executive order. Legit would potentially gain an extra vote if I knew he had common sense.
