Sport achieves inclusion via categories: sex, age, ability/disability. Or young able bodied males would win everything. It is simply unfair for a 16-year old male to run in a female category. Guess what, 16-year-old females have rights hope & dreams too.

What dangerous nonsense. Stop encouraging suicide ideation.
Puberty blockers ARE extreme harm to children with gender confusion. PB's stop the healthy development & puberty of children & set them on a path to cross sex hormones, sterility & loss of sexual function.

Sociologist who surveyed effect of 2024 UK ban says denial of gender-affirming care has left trans and non-binary children in ‘abject misery and severe distress’
