Also worth noting that anyone who thinks Algeria would send a trans woman to the Olympics is pretty ignorant.
Yes, we were expecting a clue that transphobe halfwits are ignorant. Can they even define what trans is? I don't think so.
I know it involves a test of testosterone levels. I don't know the limits of those tests, how much testosterone means a person isn't a woman anymore.
And as I read some where here, if testosterone levels is unfair advantage why aren't there limits in the men's league too? It is so just they police women bodies (cis and trans alike). Here is the original comment but I did not record the username, so sadly I can't credit them
