  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).

  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

Yes, they’re “trolling” or “rage bait”…but you’re the one getting baited.

…you’re the one babbling about the never-has-or-will happen-but-is-technially-possible scenario. You obviously completely unaware of the standards that were in place…which made it impossible for the athlete that you described to compete as a woman.

All this is going to do is allow transphobes and other perverts to inspect the generals of athletes…some of them minor athletes…if they wish to compete.

This is a virtue signal for bigots, solving a problem that didn’t and couldn’t exist. Full stop, end of story.
