Sports Are Complicated/Colosseum Of Fuckability
Goddamn the whole sports thing.
Folks I mean c’mon —
It depends on the sport first of all
Then it depends on the individual.
These articles be like
“This trans woman won…!”
“This trans woman lost…!!!”
“What will happen to womens sports…?!?”
I dunno maybe just make them
Inclusive and more people will watch….?!?!?
Jesus fucking Christ also I mean
C’mon folks
Stop pretending like
There is zero difference and
There will never be a difference and
All of the reasons to have doubts and concerns
Are simple transphobic cluelessness—
Y’all.
Not a single record
Would be left standing
If Janae Kroc competed.
Bitch is my goddamn hero and
She won’t compete in womens lifting
Out of respect to those athletes.
Do I think it’s fair
That trans people
Seemingly have to choose between
Transitioning
And professional sport?
Nope. Do I think it
Means anything at all
To keep referencing
Single individuals
On different sports
Claiming they are somehow
Representative
Of 50% of whichever sex
They decide to compare to
I just
All sides
Both sides of this argument
Make me dizzy and sick
I don’t believe for a second
That all the articles on earth
Are gonna do a damn thing
To change peoples minds about
Gender and sex in sport
Testosterone— it’s affects and effects
Are the whole debate
That’s what steroids are folks
To say that testosterone doesn’t give you
Any sport advantage
Because of somebody you admire
Winning or losing and
Saying something you agree with—
Sorry not sorry but none of it is
Compelling, none of it is evidence.
At the end of the day
Janae Kroc will always have been taking
Testosterone in higher doses
For longer than me
Even if she never detransition again
For the rest of her huge strong Susan Strong life
As a human in Ooo
I wonder why it is
That articles are the only weapons
We fight with.
Trans people in sports is a
Highly individualized
Complicated issue
And out of respect for women like
Caster Semenya and Serena Williams—
It’s absurd to pretend as if
The previous system wasn’t flawed as fuck too.
At the end of the day
Sports are where
The general public decides
Who is super fuckable
And who is a loser.
I guess, when I put it that way
The source of the debate is much clearer…
