@nolli15 Are trans men still ok to play in the men's game?After all, a spot of testosterone apparently makes them 100% equal to born male players,in no way at all could they be hurt playing/training with men. Be interesting to see any insurance claim from a trans man if injured.
@JonFox93@TheLondonSmoke@davidflatman@nolli15@Scienceofsport@FondOfBeetles Out of interest - what % of trans women have had any level of surgery? What % are only on tablets to reduce testosterone or boost estrogen? What % are actually on zero modification whatsoever other than self decoration? Is this the sort of study you endorse? Heavy burden, no?
@cheekycol@WomensRugbyShow @womensrugbyclub Β£10 is a bargain for a premiership match - if we had true equal opportunities then shouldn't this be more like the Β£40 a men's premiership match would cost.....oh....wait....we don't like that sort of equality.....
#Premier15 - how does a 35 minute half make people less likely to contract Covid19? Genuinely curious - the rest of the law changes will be interesting to see what effect they have, but the shortening of game time, what is the science on that? Anyone know?
@ScrumQueens@sportinghistory@LydzFursey Now right there in that picture is a true legend, someone that shaped our game with her drive and vision. Salute Carol Isherwood!
@Tobermoree@EnglandRugby@leanneriley189@jessbreach We'll have to agree to disagree. Two players physically touched her, two were maybe near enough to affect a tackle, but it's hard to organise and know who will pick the runner up in that position. I'm sure losing a world cup final has given each player ample time to deliberate.
@Tobermoree@EnglandRugby@leanneriley189@jessbreach So its easy to mount a scrambled defense in your own 22, with your pack caught in front of the defensive line, on a player that fast, with those feet,7 minutes to the end of the game with everyone knackered? Canada aren't short of technique or guts-it was a great move execution.
@FlorenceW94 @gaytimesmag Good point. Would it be fair to say it is easier to be 'out' as a female rather than a male? Maybe that is the significance of the headline, for once it's easier for females (I say easier with the very thinest of thin veneers) to be overtly gay/bi?
@chrisjohnston11@x_simonebrooke@FlorenceW94 @gaytimesmag So players that are paid professionals shouldn't describe themselves thus, because not all female players are paid professionals? What should they call themselves, paid amateurs?
@PFTroy@fairplaywomen Is that a question to me,as you are preaching to the Choir :) I think its worth remembering that the most hysterical 'activists' are denying those of a quieter disposition their rights and needs,for every person with a 'woman dick' excitedly on stand by, there are those in need
@PFTroy@fairplaywomen There is a middle ground,which I appreciate isn't popular, which is Trans women's and trans men's teams.Numbers of women's players in the late 80's and 90's were tiny,that didn't stop us.We don't have to draw pistols at down,we do need to have an actual debate.
Most people agree women's sport is for females. The trouble is people don't dare say it out loud so the rule makers don't know. Speak up now!

@katoi Yes-these are the backseat drivers of the entire world,have achieved nothing,risked nothing,been hurt by none of life's true 'smash you to bits' moments, yet are equipped to pass comment and criticism on a world they merely consume, like the ungraceful little emperors they are.
