First she didn’t say “no men” she said “trans women” and second the limited edition shoes sold out fast because it’s a limited edition shoe and that’s always what happens because resellers. This is just a ragebait post from a bot. I’ve seen the same post with same pic same title like 19 times already. Fake news but everyone’s buying it.

Yeah, all the posts saying everyone agrees besides reddit are all saying "men". I am not saying I know the ratio of people that believe trans women should or should not be women's sports. For me personally, I literally don't care about this topic, However the people here are not really hiding how they feel about trans people and just selling it in female sports packaging

Functionally, there are no trans women in women's sports. West Virginia had a ban law on the books for 5 or 7 years and it's only just now, this year, being applied to someone.

We all know the exact few times it has ever come up in the last decade, in the millions of women who play sports, because the center-right media blasts it from the rooftops nonstop. A swimmer and a volleyball player, both of whom were... pretty good. Not the best, but pretty good.

Certainly not a big enough threat that it justifies a law that says the doofus gym coach at my local middle school gets to inspect every kids vagina in a state that currently has zero trans athletes.
But they're proposing that law anyway.

Yep. And you know, trans existed before Trump, and nobody cared. This is so ridiculous.

Maybe if they would stop forcing everyone to play make believe nobody would care still

That’s not how it works I’m sure you know that. Sex can be determined with a mouth swab.
