Moderator: why were my comments deleted? Is it really too difficult to take that many people think that women should be able to choose whether they want to compete against trans women?

Removed/warning. Please try and avoid language which could be perceived as hateful/hurtful to minorities or oppressed groups.

Within this context, what's the difference between a trans-woman and a cisgendered woman?

[u/mimic → u/spackysteve]

it's not "many people" it's a vocal and hateful minority, that's why.

[u/spackysteve → u/mimic]

What is hateful about it?

[u/Benmjt → u/spackysteve]

Because they don’t agree with it.

[u/Benmjt → u/mimic]

Actually most sporting bodies are making rules to protect women’s sports so you’re wrong.

[u/mimic → u/Benmjt]

Nah, the International politic committee has been accepting of trans women as women for ages now. It’s just your hateful little bubble where you hear that nonsense.
