I saw that tweet and I thought that was mighty stupid.Patrick Lenton, a Bluecheck journalist who barely gets any recognition on his main tweets, got a viral tweet on troons in women's sports.

Well, here's a Troon ready to show us HRT completely undoes male puberty.

I'd LOVE to read how his male cells changed thanks to HRT. Every day there are more and more ridiculous claims from troons, from them getting "female" breasts and hips to getting actual female genetics.
Let's see this new woman who got a new puberty, shall we?

Such a woman. You're just like us. You got XX chromosomes now.
The fact these people never get pushback for their ridiculous claims are telling. They really do believe the ONLY thing that makes one male or female are hormones.
The motivation behind the transition doesn't matter. it doesn't matter if they transition because they want to be woman, think they already are women or if the possibility of ranking higher in sport I also there somewhere. I really don't think people transition just to get a leg up, appart form specific cases, like men transitioning in jail to get an easy time, or Dylan who is " transitioning" to boost his career. (Or pretending to, I don't see any major change in the way he looks, he is only committing to the theatrics, he still looks just like a skinny guy and can grow his beard back at any moment )
But the reasons why are irrelevant. What matters is: do women have a right to their own category, or not. Do they have the right to compete among themselves without having to compare with males.
