This is absolutely, utterly, howling-at-the-moon, bibbling-lips, Napoleon-hat wearing deranged: https://www.thepinknews.com/2023/08/16/chess-regulator-fide-trans-women/
The international chess organisation has banned trans women and is going to take titles away from trans men if they won them before transition. CHESS. The board game.
Genuinely there is no response to this other than to just hold a cushion to my face and scream and scream and scream. HOW DID IT GET TO THIS???
A chess regulator has announced it will ban trans women from female competitions for at least two years pending approval from officials.
Many of us will spend most of our lives responding to the words/behaviors of others
Advice: make sure that you surround yourself with folx who say/do things that are helpful and heal rather than harm
