Just create transgender leagues and be done with it.

NCTAA
NFTL
MLTB
NHTL
NBTA

What pisses me off is that while I acknowledge trangender/gender fluid is real is that they think they have a RIGHT to destroy the dreams and confidence of women.

You are what you are, but FOff with your we have a RIGHT to knowingly hurt people.

A$$holes.

Transgender is a mental illness delusion that should be treated and not be encouraged and indulged.
