I don't care that much about it. Ive known a fair few trannies over the years, though oddly more in melbourne and brasil than in my years in london. maybe different scenes?
I'm happy to call them women and use female pronouns as it seems polite and is no skin off my nose, but it's with the understanding that the label is kind of a shared fantasy. they are what they are, as we all are, and I take them on their merits. It doesn't make them better or worse. But sport is different, and I reckon it shouldn't need to change itself and deny women a shot at gold in order to extend that fantasy just because they would like to join in as women. It's like the door-hating pistorius, people tolerated him bouncing around on pogo legs as long as he didn't win gold. if this kiwi trannie wins, it'll be the first and last I reckon
