Hello everyone,

I’m interested in gathering thoughts and perspectives, particularly from the trans community, regarding trans women’s participation in women’s sports. This is a topic that often sparks debate, and I want to understand the various viewpoints better.

My question is: What are your opinions on biologically male trans individuals competing in women’s sports? Do you think there should be separate categories for trans athletes, or should they compete in accordance with their gender identity? I am looking for thoughtful, respectful discussions, as my intention is not to discriminate but to understand the complexities of this issue better.

Thank you for sharing your insights!

    biologically male trans individuals

    The preferred term is either “assigned male at birth”, or simply “trans woman”.

      This is so aggravating. You knew the intent and you know what they mean yet you still find the need to correct.

        Oh no, I gave information to someone asking for information, without taking any offense or getting upset. I’m such a monster.
