the fairness argument is a bullshit excuse for bigotry and it always has been. it has been debunked in scientific studies, and trans women don't even do that well. it's not like we're actually dominating any women's sports. these facts have done nothing to convince transphobes they are wrong because they have only ever argued in bad faith. their position is bigotry and hate, so no argument based in logic will ever convince them.
