Local :reddit-logo: is bursting with them right now due to some college swimmer or something. So so so so many "I support trans people / think they deserve a place in society / have a trans friend BUT (transphobia)"

Seen someone talking about Micheal Phelps' natural biological advantages and that seems to shut them up, but other dunks would be appreciated

    combat sports are a perfect case. fighters are already segregated by weight class. I don't see how gender categories make it any safer than that. And under capitalism most women's sports leagues are already treated as second-class, even among the best female atheletes. I think affirming that no woman could ever beat a man at the professional level contributes to that.
