@TinaMay-rr6xi A bunch of them turn out to be non-binary or someone on the non-binary spectrum. True people who de-transition and aren’t non-binary are quite low.

Some women before menopause don’t even have periods. They are still valid.

Not enough players usually. We’ve had a bunch of trans people play on a sports team just so the school can meet quotas aside from wanting to play. The trans players helped meet quotas and also lost a lot of games with their team. We did have mixed judo in the last Olympics and it was separated by weight class.

Women’s sports in a bunch of cases haven’t protected for a while. Trans people aren’t the problem. Biological women who are physical strong or just skilled enough to hurt other women in sports even sending some to the hospital. All of the players that sent someone to the hospital still got to play the entire season. A few of these incidents was a Trans woman teammate getting physically hurt on soccer team that never won a game while she was playing.

Due to in-depth biology, there’s multiple reasons as to why one definition doesn’t matter. Not all women are born with XX chromosomes. XXX chromosomes women do exist.

@allana.nascimento It happened a lot in the 70’s and 80’s. People barely knew what a trans person was. Being gay was pretty new back then too. No law is going to stop it. I know elderly people who experienced predatory men trying in women’s space back in the 60–80’s when they haven’t experienced it within the last 10 years.

It’s rare outcome plus her school in general was placing high and winning a bunch of swim competitions. Coaching at the school great. A trans golfer played in the European version of women’s PGA golf and placed near the bottom of the leaderboard. Golf is all about the swing until you putt and people knew a trans woman was playing but they mind when she lost. A trans woman played in one season of Fifa soccer and was cut after one game as her team did poorly. She has never scored a goal in soccer. A trans female cyclist from PA has competed in multiple professional competition and never won while sometimes placing near last. I can name more but only listing these examples. Besides, actual women have out swam Lia Thomas. Many trans athletes do have to checked hormone wise before they play.

They did try it out in the Olympics with some mixed sports. In some cases, the women did beat the men.

Gina is intersex. That’s a third sex.

@Straumnes There are people who don’t produce sperm and don’t have ovaries. My intersex friend would never fit in either the male or female sex box though she identifies as a female. Updated medical facilities wouldn’t allow her to pick either sex too. Some medical providers could it as a third sex.

A very few men can but it’s not as easy. Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome is the rare condition that a very few men have and allows them to give birth.

A lot of trans athletes who play sports have to get their hormones levels tested before they can play unless it’s a coed sport. A bunch of biological women would fail that test. Some biological women who got tested to see still failed and still got to play. Trans athletes can play as long as they make the team to me imo. Most of the trans athletes I know were never questioned for being trans. A lot of them were on consistently losing teams.

What about people who born with unknown gender? Intersex people exist and you can’t just go off of chromosomes as XO chromosomes exist. Gina is intersex as she mentioned in the video.

@jachellelynn3041 I am not trans. I’m stating based on Gina in the video though I have an intersex friend myself. People can transition regardless.

@shroomitechromee Not always unless you yourself specifically count intersex as a sex. Actual intersex people have been able to get an X under sex for intersex on their birth certificate. They were able to change their birth certificate with proof. While new intersex cases so like babies have been able to see that X on their birth certificate as well if truly intersex. My intersex friend has to put intersex as sex whenever she can as some doctors require when available on forms. XO chromosome intersex people exist.

@shroomitechromee Her gender identity is female as she feels like a woman. Her sex is still intersex per the changed birth certificate. All of this valid to her and even though she is two-spirit as well per her full native roots. She has nearly gotten unnecessary tests due to having to pick between male or female for sex when intersex option not available. Those tests were stopped when she told the medical providers.

@shroomitechromee She identifies as a intersex female. Two spirit is mentioned for people who could understand or just native people as it’s a native terminology. Her gender identity is often not put on health forms or other forms for sex as intersex is her sex. When she had to pick female for sex, it caused so many issues including exams that are only for biological women. Intersex isn’t necessarily a gender identity. A lot of places she goes to know allow intersex or other as an option for sex. Her actual intersex condition doesn’t fully fit male or female. Gender and sex aren’t the same. She doesn’t ever feel like both male and female at the same time.

There aren’t many stats on trans people in sports. There are blogs or stories about trans athletes saying that they still work hard in sports even though they rarely win. Both team and individual participation. A ton of trans athletes go unnoticed as being trans, especially when their team loses a lot. People don’t always question constant losers. I don’t count the trans athletes at the high school I went to as they were on the coed track and field team where some girls outran all the boys. I know countless of stories on biological girls physically hurting other girls and some boys.
