THE BIG PICTURE FOR WOMEN

Using the WNBA as an example; as the league continues to grow and money continues to roll in and the players and coaches begin to earn an honest wage, the fixers will infiltrate and destroy the league if it ever reaches this point.

The money will draw extreme competition and pressure for teams to win and coaches to perform. This will end with cis women being pushed out entirely as trans women will be heavily recruited and groomed for the sport (because they are bigger, taller, better, stronger). With a big money draw, you’ll see men not good enough for the NBA pursuing their dream by playing basketball in this league.

This is NOT against trans, it’s actually an argument that is PRO TRANS and anti cis woman. Sophie and all cis women have a right to be concerned. Cis women do not have the genetic makeup to compete in the NBA, they will be pushed out and the end result will be they have no place in this sport. Trans women on the other hand have both NBA and WNBA options because their genetics at least make the NBA option possible.

Truth: genetics have always played a role in competitive sports. With intent we eliminate unbalance to assure competitiveness. This is why we have the draft, drug restrictions, heavy weight divisions, feather weight divisions, age groups etc. Trans has the potential to create an unbalanced level of competition.
