No we can’t compete. We could attempt but it wouldn’t be competition. High school teams don’t compete with pro tams. It’s the same. There is no contest.

But there’s nothing in place that actually prevents transwomen from competing against other males?

The integrity of sport and hostility of the masculine men. Safety. Many things. But there is usually no rule. Sometimes there is for instance the USAPL banned trans women from all competition not just against natal women.

So yes, technically speaking, you could in fact compete, you just don’t think you stand a chance at winning and are worried about a few hypotheticals. (With the exception of the USAPL)

Part of competition involves contest. It’s not sport for a trans woman to get destroyed by a cis dude. It’s Bullying with a ball. It isn’t sport.

And what about women competing with transwomen? Its no fun for them either. Bullying with a ball basically sums up women competing with transwomen.

I’m openly against us competing against natal women. I’ve made that clear.
