Being trans is her country is illegal. Why would such a country send a trans athlete? Because she isn't trans. You aren't talking about trans athletes, you're talking about a woman who won a sport, and was demonized for being trans, and she isn't even trans. The right wing had to make this shit up just so they would have a boogie man to be scared of. permalink fedilink source parent [–] todd_bonzalez@lemm.ee 0 points 2 years ago She isn't trans, what part of this are you having trouble with? permalink fedilink source parent
