With these new rules, FIDE has managed to

  1. Imply the mental inferiority of women
  2. Validate the existence of transgender men
  3. Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
  4. Call transgender women men

Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! ๐Ÿ‘ Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.

"Discussion" about this is just transphobic concern trolling, so it's not necessary.

Your closed mindedness--besides being off-putting and ignorant-- makes more enemies than friends. You'll never get what you want in real life by pouting. You might want to consider actually fighting for your cause instead of just declaring it because you're too lazy to think critically anymore.
