Awww, isn’t this sweet. Jo sharing an article that talks about how the joy of sport can transcend fear and hate.
Fear and hate.

How the simple joy of sport can transcend fear and hate. Wonderful reporting. https://t.co/ImQNPklcKs

Of course, Kelly is smiling. ‘She’ is built like a man playing a physical sport against a bunch of actual women who regardless of training are going to be smaller than ‘her’ for the most part and therefore easier to beat.
No one – not her, her opponents, her team mates, the sporting regulatory authorities – is complaining in this piece. All are trying, with dignity and care, to adapt to a world that is not binary. A pity some of my respondents are unable to do the same.

Silly women, how dare they have an issue with men claiming they’re women so they can take advantage of their sports.
Women’s equality may indeed be at risk, but not because ‘orange man bad’. Now women are being told to accept men playing in their sports/ leagues because they ‘identify’ as a woman … but are clearly not. This is not binary thinking, it is a reality.

Such joy.
That’s not quite how the article reads. It clearly states the “Beast” is larger, stronger & easily injures the real females she plays with. That is the main reason men & women play in separate leagues. The real women players have been bullied into keeping quiet by league rules. https://t.co/N4B5i7CGY6

Women should not be expected to ADAPT to being clobbered by dudes in their sports league!
GTFO with that BS

Y’all have the police arrest people for mean comments online. Of course no one is complaining. Duh.

Ha, true.
Have you ever spoken to female athletes who have to compete with or against transwomen? I have. I’ve heard what their contracts/sports feds dictate, what sanctions they face for letting the smile slip.

We’re going to bet the woman ‘she’ folded like a deckchair isn’t happy with ‘her’.
This is the worst kind of legal male violence made completely possible by ridiculous pc laws, the nature of the sport hides it

Sorry, Jolyon, I disagree. Sex is biology and it is binary. It is unfair and often unsafe for males to compete with females.

“None of the people whose jobs and livelihoods are held hostage by the howling mob should they misstep are voicing their disapproval” doesn’t prove what you think it proves.

Excellent point.
No one whose job depends on this being ok had anything negative to say about it.
Gotta love that .
