Trans Law and Sport
Don't try to fool us. Those who use sport as the main argument to oppose Trans law are projecting their fear by trying to confuse it. Moreover, I would say that they do not know the athletes, that they do not put themselves in the place of trans people, that they do not understand their needs, or that they do not want to understand them, and that, under the excuse of sport, they show the most violent resistance to the freedom to define their own gender identity. The different concerns and visions that this law has shown among feminists do not in any way mean that a man defines himself as a woman in order to have an advantage over women to deceive in sport. Maybe someone can believe that a cis man who has socialized in this androcentric system has been socialized from the identity characteristics that define his masculinity
"Can anyone believe that a cis man, who has been socialized in this androcentric system, moves away from the identity characteristics that define his masculinity to perform a sporting intrigue?"
What's going away to make a sports trap? A man who disparages women's sport and attributes it a lower social status? Well, no. The feminists working in the field of sport are concerned, among other things, with the rigidity of sport, with the unfair tools that this structure has to systematically discriminate against non-normative bodies. The problems posed by the classification of sexual binarism have long been on the table in the International Olympic Committee and, in particular, the maximum number of nanomoles per litre of blood required of women – it is no longer politically correct to make medical examinations of women, and the patriarchy always finds grounds for making them emerge. Testosterone, ditxoso hormone. Since equality is one of the fundamental values of the sport, in a broad sense, it cannot be understood that a system performs a reductionist classification that excludes individuals by their bodily characteristics. And this will be one of the great challenges you will have in the coming years. So what's the problem? Hegemonic masculinity, resistance and fear. Fear, loss of privilege and loss of prominence in the process of democratization that provokes real pluralism in society (sasi). Therefore, let us not be deceived because we are not talking about the law, but about the resistance of a system of deeply rooted patriarchal values.
