International Chess Org: Trans Women Have "No Right To Participate" In Women's Chess
www.erininthemorning.com
International Chess Federation, FIDE, has released new guidelines targeting transgender players. The guidelines would strip trans men's titles, and potentially bar trans women from playing.

With these new rules, FIDE has managed to

  1. Imply the mental inferiority of women
  2. Validate the existence of transgender men
  3. Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
  4. Call transgender women men

Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! 👏 Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.

    Yeah, non-trans women don’t enjoy being forever 2nd because they weren’t born men in physically competitive sport lol.

    The way you start your post is very telling. You’d have been better off leaving out the first two paragraphs.

    It doesn’t take years long studies to understand a woman who transitioned well into or after puberty is still built more physiologically man than women.

    Appeal to common sense. Also, why default to exclusion/discrimination rather than starting from a point of inclusion and make adjustments from there?

    When a man transitions into being a woman then wipes the floor with every one of her peers, there’s something wrong.

    That is not something that has been shown to happen to any significant degree. Seems like another appeal to common sense. Are trans women not allowed to win?

    I’m sure you’re just a concerned citizen who wants what’s best for all involved. 🙄
