Wow, I honestly thought Lemmy would be less transphobic. This totally rational comment downvoted for no reason. If most women in sports aren’t concerned about trans women being there, why are all these assholes concerned about it.
Just gonna point out historically most male/female segregation in sports is actually due to sexism, and a lack of women’s rights, not due to an “animal issue”.
You say you want clarity but you’re missing clarity yourself. Why is it important to exclude people born with penises from women’s sports? You don’t know what that person may have experienced hormonally over the years, and you definitely don’t know their gender. Someone being born with a penis doesn’t actually give you the information you’re claiming to want with your terf-phrase. If you want to find inclusive language, maybe look at what some trans orgs have suggested.

Yeah no dice. This isn’t “Lemmy”, that’s just the general public
