I MEAN COME THE FUCK ON.
It's Just Jenn 🏳️⚧️@JenWojcik I can only assume the implication is that men are smarter than women, which is BS, but also we're not men. 🤷♀️
Gosunkugi@Tweetfiction @JenWojcik They have two categories, an open one for both genders, and a women only, so I think it's more to do with the women's tournament being a "protected space", which is a complete load of bull, and implies that the organisers don't care about trans women enough to even consider them women. To be honest I can see this being overturned by ruling bodies pretty quickly.
