A guy is competing against other guys, everything is as it should be.

I note how they put so much emphasis on his lack of competitiveness against the other boys, but never acknowledge the proven advantage trans identified men have demonstrated in women's sports.

Also, makes me blegh how much they talk about how this kid liked dressing up and other behaviors. Makes me think this kid probably had homophobic parents who decided if he wasn't the boy they wanted, he was going to be the girliest girl .

Complaining about his lack of competitiveness skewers their entire argument. The TRAs always argue they need to be included in the girl's events because winning doesn't matter, just participation and inclusiveness. Well, he's included in the boy's events. If he wants to win he has to stop taking debilitating drugs. Or maybe he's just not that good at sports, like most guys.

Fucking hate that kid dresses up line. Yeah kids like bright things and a lot of that shit is bright. Makeup and dresses are gonna look fun to a 3 year old. Even when it's just coming from an "i want to be like my older sister/mum" place it's a really normal behaviour. Hell most people I know sorted it easily enough when the boy was messing with sister/mums makeup by getting them stage/horror makeup on the basis it's got bright colours and hopefully they'll play with that and not ruin the expensive makeup sets. Fun was had for a week or two before it became boring and they lost interest.

Well apart from one but he does makeup special effects now. He just got really into it and the horror side haha.

I thought women could compete with men. When men play on the women's team and crush them they just tell the women to try harder. But now this boy is playing on the boy's team and oh look poor boy is doing worse than everybody... He shouldn't try harder, he should play with the girls. Fuck off

They use that picture to appeal to our sympathy, but what the fuck do they think when they see girls forced to face off against giant sasquatch troons?

They had him turn his head sideways to try to hide the man face and skew the perception of the width of his shoulders.

By "trans girl", do they actually mean a boy that claims he's a girl?

You who posted this are a large part of the problem when speaking of mentally challenged boys pretending to be girls. There is no such thing as a monkey-human or a dog-cat and there is no such thing as a "trans-girl". It's a nonsense phrase. There is no such thing as a girly-boy except in porno videos and at least there they are called femboys because BOYS with a dick is what they are.
