Interesting article in the Guardian today about proposals and consultation with Rugby playing countries relating to trans players playing rugby. Be interesting to see if they can navigate this without breaking Equality laws.

Trans in sport (specifically MtF) is a minefield but effects a virtually insignificant number of people while inevitably enabling multiple transphobic views to be voiced

Yep. I follow a particular wrestling company that has a transgender wrestler, Nyla Rose, on their roster. The comments about her on social media are vile.
