I understand that, I’m not even saying you’re wrong- but they can still technically play even if there’s no point and it sucks all the fun out of the game, that’s my only point. That there isn’t really anything preventing them from being allowed to compete against other males if they didn’t want to give up sports to “transition”

But there is though. Even leaving aside the nature of sport itself. Those men are the worst of them. Trans women would be targeted and harassed no question. Literally the men would prevent it.

That’s conjecture. You can’t for certain say what would happen if, even if it’s an educated guess. You can only say “I think this would be the most likely outcome”

We don’t know that what you’re saying is accurate, because transwomen aren’t playing on men’s teams/sports. We don’t know what rules, laws, penalties etc could be put in place to protect TW, because there’s no need to take any precautions, because they made female sports coed to appease TW

So, as it stands, the only thing preventing transwomen from competing in male sports is their own fear/refusal. With the exception of cases like the USAPL.

The nature of sport. Safety. Certainty of anti trans animus.
