Trans Mythbusting
Claim: “Trans women have an inherent advantage in sports.”
Fact: Research shows feminising HRT does not give inherent advantage—some studies suggest the opposite. #TransRights #TransAthletes #SportsEquality #Mythbusting #transawarenessweek

#TransAthletes who have the right to participate in sports have my support… They should have their own changing spot AWAY from sharing with the mainstream genders…💜

What I find really sad and sickening is how #feminism is used to TWIST things thus justify their prejudice on those vulnerable… 😡⭕️
