Guess how many teams only featured biological women before clicking the link.

HM will #peaktrans our nation. Sports are the be all and end all here.

Well not for me, personally, I'm more a do your best and have fun doing it kinda person. But it really is like a religion here and unfortunately now tied in with gambling as well. Don't get me started on that because I've already had my rant for the night. LOL.

Most guys I've spoken with are of the opinion that they're a cheater (paraphrasing here because actual comments would get me banned).

Aussie's like to play hard, and we like to win. The general public love an underdog and hate cheaters. My DH a cricket tragic was mortified by our teams ball tampering scandal. There will not be much public support for HM.

That goes against their own teaching. I cant help thinking we are looking at an interim step in a process, not the end game.
There is a world wide assault on women's rights, in every major culture.

Although I can't wait until some of these galumphing individuals try syncho swimming.

RIP women's sport. Destroyed by cheating losers from men's sport. Let's all go back to the kitchen.

How stunning. How brave. Hmm

People with a penis should not be playing against Muslim women.

According to several reports, some of those women are still awaiting their full reassignment surgery.

Mojtabi Sharifi, an official close to the Iranian league, told an Iranian news website: “[Eight players] have been playing with Iran’s female team without completing sex change operations.”

The current situation is not clear at all.

arranbubonicplague as far as I know the situation is different in Iran; they are forced to have surgery.
People with a penis should not be playing against Muslim women.

I'm not even surprised.

it's putting Muslim women in an uncomfortable position getting their personal space invaded by a man.

Apparently not - 8 of the Iran Women's Football Team are a particular demographic.

Not only is it cheating in sport, but it's putting Muslim women in an uncomfortable position getting their personal space invaded by a man.

Australia can't have won the the championships because they haven't finished yet.

Let's see, according to what I can google Australia finished 3rd in their pool and is in the playoff for 5th-8th.

Of course, this is the first year Australia has been in the championships and Hannah's presence almost certainly affected the result. If we end up in 5th spot after the playoff then that's certainly going to raise some questions.

I'm going to share a few pictures here, I've shared them elsewhere but more people need to see them.
