The one thing I have notice is that a lot of woke trans allies are mixed on this issue. I have read comments saying that they support transwomen (they never mention transmen) but they don't think they should play with "cis" women and show concern for women getting hurt. However when then TRA shame them and call them "terfs" or "terfy" they quickly apologize, but it does show they not every has drunk the koolaid and even if they have been shamed to comply online I doubt they have changed their opinions offline. And, can you image if this really happen, it would be the southpark episode come to life.

I think we can safely assume that this is about transwomen playing rugby with women and not about transmen playing rugby with men.

Oh I know. I was referring to how trans allies only seem to support transwomen but never advocate or show support for transmen. Whenever I read comments about trans "issues" its always "TWAW" they never seem to comment support or demand that transmen play against men in rugby or football (for the US).

    Nothing says "civil rights" like a 200lb. guy stomping a 120lb. woman into the ground.

    Honestly sports show to me how quickly the TRA spread their narrative.

    I think the most common viewpoint of the LGBT community a few years ago was "trans people don't need to be in sports with cis people, you just need to respect them and their gender". Even trans people said that.

    Nowadays this view would probably be banned from many communities.

    Frankly at this point they might as well just make all sports mixed gender. If they say biological differences aren't an issue, then why even separate men and women?

    This will happen if a trans person wishes on a monkeys paw. They get to play, but theres no validation uwu
