            Take this with a grain of salt, but at least bodybuilding is a somewhat open league. No one who is a somewhat professional lifter is clean and everyone knows that. I dont know if or how they test, but I guess if you would do it properly every single person would fail.

          My understanding is that most professional sports are technically open to all genders, they just don’t hire female athletes generally.

          I looked at the top four professional sports organizations in America: the NHL, NFL, MLB, and the NBA.

          None of them prohibit women from playing. No woman has ever been drafted in the MLB or NFL, but the NBA did draft one woman who didnt end up playing, and the NHL had one woman play a preseason game.

          Edit: did you mean an exclusive league rather than an inclusive one?

            Yes, most “men’s” leagues allow women, and by that extent trans women.

            Women’s sports were created for the sole purpose of giving women a chance to actually win competitions in sports where men have a big advantage

            Neither am I it was a genuine suggestion. People are obviously easily tilted. Someone even tried to criticise the size on my penis 😂

                Those people’s position is that Harris was too liberal. Not voting out of spite for the Dems was stupid, but let’s at least get their position correct.

              Idk why you are getting criticised. Maybe its for your suggestion to exclude trans people from the leagues of their gender and by not allowing them to play at all, since there are not enough trans athletes to form a whole league. Also, how the fuck should this work? Are trans men and women playing in the same league? That’s unfair due to transmens taking testosterone and therefore having advantages.

              Your suggestion also feeds the dumb narrative, that trans women are somehow automatically better in sports simply because of their AGAB, which simply isnt true.

      “Women’s sport enjoyers” lol

      As if the vast majority of people complaining about trans women in sports aren’t the same people who shit over women’s leagues for being “inferior”
