I hope this kind of blatant BS will eventually put a stop to this craziness. I don’t understand why women aren’t absolutely outraged by this? Maybe they need to boycott these sports until the situation has been fixed. I know that would be a HUGE sacrifice to the women who have trained years, even decades, only to stand on the sidelines.
I see that weightlifter or the swimmer — both breaking “women’s” records — and wonder what would happen in the reverse? What if a short, thin woman transitioned to male, then decided to play rugby? It would be discriminatory not to let him be part of the team, under these new rules, yet it would also clearly be akin to manslaughter to allow it. In the end, a female-to-male would not be allowed to compete, but a male-to-female would be allowed on the women’s rugby team — and become the greatest ever in the history of women’s rugby.
