Males competing against females in sports is wrong. Dead wrong. However in this case I do not agree with the ladies decision to withdraw. This was not a sport this was a game. A pool game. The trannies biological advantages where irrelevant to the game.

In general, men do have an advantage in pool for some of the following reasons, some of which are societal and not intrinsic:
Men generally have more experiences through their childhood (sports, physical play, building and taking things apart, video games, etc.) that help improve eye-hand coordination and spatial skills.
Men generally have more strength and faster-twitch muscles that make it easier to execute many shots (especially power shots) with more accuracy, control, and consistency.
Men potentially have evolutionary benefits from historically being hunters (which required good spatial perception, planning, singular focus, stoicism, fearlessness, etc.).
A woman with a large chest can be limited in stance possibilities (just like a man with a large belly or lack of flexibility).
Men are generally taller, which can offer advantages with perspective and reach, but many (if not most) top pros are short.
Men are generally more competitive and self-confident, and they hate losing.

Yeah, but it doesn't change the fact that they have a men's division and a women's division and this dude thinks he can just play dress up and dodge the rules. I don't blame her.

Fuck the trannies!
Wait.
What?
OK not literally.
But…well… you know.
Anything that goes against them in anything, even if it is not a physical advantage such as chess, is always good in our book.
Can we please get rid of these mental case freaks by putting them on a one way trip to the sun?
Please?
It will be merciful and painless.

Nobody is stopping anyone from playing, that's a strawman argument. You can play, just have to play in your league.

I guess, aside from them being franchised with tax funded stadiums, why we cling to cultural reverence for sports-celebrity seems odd to me. Just play in the park with your friends, watching other people play is boring.
Leagues have not always existed, the gender division is arbitrary, anyway… If the structure of those leagues evolves over time to allow trans athletes or whoever, I just see that as a cultural institution evolving along with the broader culture. The idea that its a big issue is all in one's head - it's just people playing a ****ing game
I should note I'm not offering an assessment or feasible real world solution for this. Just expressing my "meh" because idk life is weird, isn't it, my sweet Yermetta? I won't be offended if you disregard my input here; I don't care about sports, my opinion on things related is pretty worthless -

That's fine, I don't care about sports either, you can have your opinion. Some do care about sports and many of us are not willing to participate in this warped view of reality where women can have dicks.

Google exists to prevent people from asking questions s that make them look stupid.
Then again it is you so you are right, that ship sailed a long time ago. It means coward.
