Hey you! You've been through a shit show, good to see you're out the other side.
The debate about gender re-assignment and identification is so complex. Each case if I dare call it a case will have its own unique background, struggle, triumph and hopefully final contentment of one's self and acceptance into society as the person you feel you are.
Does the argument go the other way with men feeling cheated if women identify as men and compete in their sport gender category and win?
I ask because I get handed my lungs by women riders all the time!
I only have one trans friend and a few gay/lesbian friends and they don't do sports so don't have much personal experience from them in the sporting arena but know their personal challenges to just be themselves is a win.
I hear what you're putting down and there might be people exploiting situations and rules and fairness but I hope they are in the minority like with any cheats.
