[@LisaBeta-42]

To be "fair and inclusive" scraps all the gains, women had fought for, for more than a century - instead of more chances for all, there are less gains for more competitors! In the filming industy they were giving awards to actors and actresses - now there is only ONE actors cathegory left, including the undicided or changed artists. Instead ot 2 groups fighting for 2 different prizes, there are now 3 groups competing for a single trophy: and virtue signaling will see to it, that this single prize gets to the newest group for the next 3 to 5 years, because they have gained the least of prizes so far...

I think that men must not be allowed to forget what women go through in order to have babies; years and years of monthly discomfort and pain followed but menopause which is really tough. Stupidly, I was wondering how men could have an advantage in darts and this very impressive lady points out what should have been obvious to me - I don't experience it but I have been a witness to these things for decades. I feel a little ashamed but also angry because this really is a case of women being made second class. It's wrong.

[@littleboots9800]

They have better spatial awareness than women too. Though tbh the fact that a transwoman can compete in both men's or womens categories whilst real women can only compete in one is enough for it not to be fair. Even if men had zero advantages the fact sexed categories exist should be enough to keep the sexes seperate. Otherwise what's the point in the categories?

​@@littleboots9800transgenders can't "compete in both"... The reason Noa-Lynn has also competed with males is because not all tournaments are male (or female) only...
