Not that men are remotely threatened by FTMs in male sporting categories, but I'm pretty sure if they were, they wouldn't put up with it.

You base this on?

Seriously, when have men successfully fought off an incursion by social justice activists? They even made Boy Scouts coed whilst keeping Girl Guides single sex.

If the FTM athletes were backed by the kinds of lobbyists the MTF are backed by, you can bet the sporting bodies would be engaged in discussions over how to alter the rules to allow FTM competitors even if it meant changing the overall characteristics of the sport. Any men that complained would be given the full Lawrence Fox treatment and would be lucky to work anywhere let alone in their chosen field.

Men’s professional sports (football, NFL, golf, Tennis etc) have one thing that might protect them and that’s money- the organisations behind those sports make hundreds of millions if not billions and they won’t want to risk that. Women’s professional sport makes a fraction of that which means that if putting some MTF on teams attracts more money, then you’re finally going to see a WNBA player dunk.

Over all of this is the weird fact that the trans issue has far greater support amongst women than men, ridiculously high support among normie women, which I really don’t understand.

I base it on the fact that men don't tolerate this shit the way women do, period. We don't have to. That's our privilege as the people in charge.

The fact that there is "money" behind men's organizations is just an abstract that represents collective interests that aren't gonna change any time soon. Actually watching athleticism is more interesting than staging social dramas with athletes as proxies, which is apparently more interesting than women's sports. But us? We're satisfied. No man on earth wants to watch a 5'1" 120 lb FTM fumble a pass before getting decapitated by a linebacker.

Well, actually, some people might want to see that. But I think it would discourage future players.

(And yeah, they took Boy Scouts. But that was because Boy Scouts has been a hollow shell of its former self for decades and was basically just an open piece for free capture by whoever wanted it.)
