Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

You are a bigot. You are inventing a set of standards for fairness that stops exactly at "trans or cis". How is it fair that one woman could be groomed and trained from birth by rich parents to be the best swimmer she can is allowed to compete against a poor woman raised with less nutrition who was self trained? Why drawn the line at trans or cis and not literally anywhere else?
You're allowed to be born a gigantic thick-boned brick shithouse and compete against guys/girls born way fucking smaller than you but someone born with a vagina isn't allowed to compete explicitly against somebody born with a dick as the only stated reason and you DON'T think it's fueled by bigotry? You're only fooling yourself. If discriminating against trans people made sense, you'd also being chomping at the bit to descriminate by height, weight, net worth, nutrition, etc. etc. You'd have 18 different leagues for one sport all neatly segregated and you could only compete with people who look exactly like you.
Estrogen does the opposite of steroids you fucking moron
