Dutch darts players quit national women's team over transgender teammate
ABC(Australia) ^ | 3/25/24 | Lara Smit

Posted on 03/25/2024 7:07:58 PM PDT by DallasBiff

Darts players Anca Zijlstra and Aileen de Graaf have announced their departure from the Dutch women's darts team because they refuse to team up with trans woman Noa-Lynn van Leuven.

Zijlstra announced she was quitting the team in a post on Facebook.

"The moment you're embarrassed to be a part of the Dutch Team, because a biological man is playing in the women's team, it's time to go," she wrote.

"I have tried to accept this, but I can not condone or justify this."

"I think that with sports there has to be an equal and level playing field which is to be used and accepted in good faith. After all, we have worked so hard to be relevant and competitive in this sport."

I met a photographer on a hike yesterday. We were both working on getting a great shot of a magnificent waterfall. We talked some about our cameras, lenses, and technique. Nice person, but I had trouble determining if it was a man or a woman (voice, hair, body structure) and finally decided woman. Later I was talking to my wife and said “her” and my wife said “I thought that was a man!”

So not just Dutch women. Of course, being bundled up for a cold, windy day didn’t help any.

“If every woman in all the women’s sports did the same, this insanity would end in a microsecond.”

AMEN

Still don't why the guy went tranny [...]

Because he find it sexually titillating and/or he is mentally ill.

Item: We don't need to know why.

I’m wondering which ones the transgender. Those five look horrid.

Female darts players? I'll admit, I wasn't expecting much before I saw the photo.

No sag is the first clue. He’s a bit perky for a middle aged woman.

anything you do that allows drinking beer and smoking cigarettes is a game, not a sport.
