(4,766 posts)41. The NCAA already has rules for transgender females.
If I Recall Correctly, transfems are fine as long as their T levels are the same as cisfems.
Seems about as fair as it can be to me.
Also, that any state, say TN, with a more restrictive law would probably be banned from NCAA competition - and if there's one thing racist redneck shitsticks hate more than "boys playing girls sports", it's being kicked out of the SEC. The Vols not being a league team is literally unthinkable to them.
