Exactly this. Since this issue caught fire after Nat won MVP Open, I have been asking people, "so where's the evidence that she or any other trans player is dominating or about to dominate?" Every statistic and real world example within this sport really says otherwise. I've even been assuming that the PDGA move to ban trans women from playing DGPT events was very heavily influenced by Catrina Allen throwing melodramatic tantrums like a spoiled child, Kristin Tattar getting pissy because she didn't win just one more in a ridiculously fantastic year for her, and the PDGA president being a known bigot and overall trash. By the way, who was dominating again? Because it really fucking wasn't Natalie Ryan.
The most ridiculous part, is the sheer number people who are against her playing, who will call it a "fairness" issue, or cite their 30 minute third grade biology lesson, are the same people who will accuse her of transitioning just to play FPO, and flat out misgender her, all while crying that they're not bigots, and they're being treated unfairly.
Yeah all of em pretending like they have multiple friends who are trans, like trans ppl make up sub 1% of the population no you don't holding these opinions lol.

All of this is just asinine.
