I don’t understand why people are complaining about a women’s world cup player being trans

It’s still a biological female, playing against other biological females, which is completley fair? Why does gender matter? I don’t think trans females should compete in female sports due to the physical advantages - it’s not fair on biological females. But there’s no difference here?

Also, imagine if this was a biological man coming out as trans. Would we start persuading them to go be a female footballer? No, since we know that’s unfair on females.

This whole incident just shows in sports that instead of having some acceptance of trans people in sports, we whine and complain saying they’re in the wrong category.

they aren’t so this incident is purely fair. For your second point, it has been proven that trans females still have advantages over biological females, particuarly in strength, so I still think for complete fairness it is best they stay in the mens category.
