Should a trans woman be allowed to beat the shit out of a woman in a UFC fight? I'm not questioning this person's decision to transition, I'm questioning the rule that separates genders in sports (the UFC thing has happened and it resulted in a broken skull). If you have to separate genders for one sport then you have to do it for all.

Why don't you ask a woman fighting in the UFC? I'm sure you think you're white knighting for them but those women are tough as nails. They aren't death matches and all through my wrestling career if a woman wanted to wrestle they had to join the regular team. I wouldn't doubt a woman UFC fighter having a long history of competing with men.

Nonsense. UFC and mini putt are not related.
