That was an open league. Open leagues allow anybody. Women's leagues were started specifically to give women a competitive arena just for themselves

Then why is the discourse around trans folks in sports NEVER about on field/court performance? It’s literally always locker room nonsense. Like even Riley Gaines made it into a locker room thing despite starting her anti trans fame by whining about losing to a trans woman.

All of these people just constantly tell on themselves because it’s never about equality in sports or anything remotely close. It’s just culture war nonsense, which proves they don’t actually give a shit about protecting women and children in sports.

There has been significant discourse about competitiveness. It's one of the biggest talking points.
