'The Quebec Boxing Federation was reportedly aware of Walmsley’s biological sex, but justified the fight by stating they had chosen an appropriate referee for the match. Ultimately, Bissonnette says her decision to withdraw came down to safety.'

'Following Bissonnette’s withdrawal, Walmsley issued a statement to the press accusing her of “outing” him and warning that similar actions would have a negative impact on female athletes.'

i think you’ll find that the meaning of the concept if ‘transphobia’ is extremely debatable.

Everything is transphobic

She doesn’t “say”, she is a woman. Maybe not a born-woman, but still is.

How do you know?

Btw there’s no conclusive evidence for everything you say here. Everything is unsubstantiated and exclusively based on hatred. Here

No. Denying someone’s identity is clear. When someone identifies as she and you call her “he” is transphobia. Can’t be clearer.

Currently, there is no direct or consistent research suggesting transgender female individuals (or male individuals) have an athletic advantage at any stage of their transition

Well, females who take testosterone have an advantage over females who don't. And males, whatever their gender, have a really solidly established advantage over females.

The rest is just words. I don't think you can argue that someone's self-image and/or self-description changes their physical ability.

How do you know that you you’re a human? How do you know this world is real?

Policing women's speech is Orwellian. He's a man, we'll call him "he" if we want to. It doesn't come from a position of hate or fear, it comes from a position of truth.

Yeah sure, write a paper and prove them wrong. And of course publish it. There you go.

Paola, I'm honestly getting to the point of thinking 'Fuck it' when anyone tries to argue that male = female and anything else is transphobic.

Define trans given that most TW don’t have surgery or take hormones?

Policing women's speech is Orwellian

Yes

Nothing Orwellian here babes, it’s fundamental human rights.

Oh lord. If I'm a cat, or the world is cheese, does that make male = female?

Do your research properly. Not here to educate you.

No. Women can recognise biological reality

Lol right. Just by default. Forget science and the real world, it just comes down to “individual’s truth”. I thought we were done with this philosophy centuries ago 😂

I don’t think that you know how research works. I also think (know) that your assumption that your audience haven’t published papers may be build on sand.

But thanks for stopping by to lecture us all and make yourself feel smug and superior.

Look, Paola, presumably you think woman or man is something involving inner perception. Good for you, if you can manage to hold that as a consistent belief and definition. But the definition based on body and reproductive set-up is a much clearer and more consistent one, and is what affects sporting ability.

Are you trying to argue against yourself but forgot to name change?

Just so you know, our right to believe in biological sex as reality is enshrined in UK equalities law.

So stop with this silliness about fundamental human rights.

What - the human right for a male to belt the living daylights out of a woman by saying the magic words?

Why do you want men to have the right to punch women @Paola11 ?
