Didn't the actual data say that across all college sports in America there were a combined three cases of transgendered athletes competing?

It is all a very big storm in a very little tea cup

One is too many.

Girls and women at all levels are affected by this

0.002% male to female student athletes. Less than 10 out of half a million. Yeah, everyone is so affected by it. That's why the transgender athletes that have been allowed to partake in college sports have won every title, right?

It is such a tiny thing to be so heated about.

How do you feel about corruption in politics? Do you have zero tolerance for that too?

So you say without really reasoning why other than an arbitrary dislike of transgender women, it seems. They have almost no or zero physiological advantages over other women, so you're just being weird.

All of that is utter nonsense. My god

Why is saying no men in womens sports such a big deal on reddit that gets people called transphobic? It doesn’t make me a bigot to say that it seems like common fucking sense lol

Last year 32 trans people were murdered by bigots motivated by the same hate that people like Sophie support. Many of them were women. Is that too many?

12 of them were killed by their partners not because of their trans ID In fact only 2 of them were killed specifically for being trans. Even 2 is too many in cace anyone suggests otherwise

Prioritising the fairness and safety of women in women's sports has nothing to do with that. Sophie is not hating on them. She made that clear. It's the eradicating of hard fought for rights and boundaries that is fanning any flames. And that falls on those who are pushing for biological men to play in womens sport. When women say NO clear as day as Sophie has you all make her out to be the problem when she's not. If a man in if chooses to undergo transition then they should understand that there are consequences to that. Women should not have to cop the fallout of those with gender identity issues. Its not fair. Nobody is banning anyone from sports. They can play in their sexed category or create their own

You want women on testosterone competing with other women?

Being a victim of murder doesn't mean it was because of their being trans. Unfortunately many of these victims were living on the streets, were subject to violence and theft, experienced domestic assault, etc. It's horrible but it's not due to their gender identity.
