I have just come across a twitter feed (I joined a couple of days ago) from a guy, Jon Pike, who highlighted the fact that Outsports had published the details of 309 women who had spoken out about transwomen competing in women's sports. I believe this is called doxxing?
The women athletes were only signing a letter to the NCAA voicing their concerns about transgender athletes in women's sports.

The person who made this information public, was a 49 year old transwoman Dawn Ennis, former ABC journalist.

This is what happens when women speak out.

Usually when you hear about doxxing in relation to trans issues, its women having their names and details published, and its often for speaking about wanting to keep our existing rights.
They have to be spelled out in law because women had to fight to be included in most activities, including sports. Women have only be able to compete in some Olympic sports for a few decades.

This example really isn't any different; both the GRA and The Equality Act state that sports are an exemption and can be single sex. The idea that mixed sex sports will be fair or safe for women is ludicrous.
If that were the case they would already be mixed sex.
