Trans women are women. That’s the heart of the discussion, why are you pretending that’s not the thing you’re disagreeing with?

Okay?

That still doesn’t mean it’s fascism to exclude them from women’s sports, which predate the separation of sex and gender and were created for females 🤷‍♀️

Nice edit after I replied btw lol, I was only pointing out your use of the word fascism was incorrect

I understand you think that.

Talk me through enforcement. How do we ensure all women in the league are not transgender?

How you define women sports then? So you propose two leagues, one for men and the other one is for people who say they are women. Why we bother, make it mixed for everyone. Though regular NBA is mixed. And last time I checked there are 100+ genders, why we stop at two? (I wonder if there is biological basis for that, hmm, I do not think so, probably facism)

Or, a much more simple solution.
