It doesn't matter what condition you have or what your body has. 1 leg or 1 arm or if you are able bodied. You can compete. It is basically like the sailing equivalent to roller derby. 141

Bedwellj101 @alyx.whatthetrans.com · 03/10/2026There is no gender split in the rules. Everyone competes together. The only thing that transness ever comes in. Is how you are recorded in the result. But even that is negligent. 130

Bedwellj101 @alyx.whatthetrans.com · 27/09/2026We were going through our library of protest photos, but a curious thing we noticed was that there were a lack of protest signs talking about gender euphoria. Bit of a suprise that we didn't see it at all. We got tons about trans joy, other references to stuff. But not anything on gender euphoria. 010
Bedwellj101 @alyx.whatthetrans.com · 26/09/2026Some great work by Flint! He put a lot of hard work into this. And the team has been doing a fantastic job of keeping WTT producing these episodes whilst I've been on my break. 020

Reposted by Bedwellj101Ian Boudreau @ianboudreau.com · 10/09/2026People get confused about the trans sports thing because at a glance it seems like a small issue that impacts a very small number of people and thus makes sense as a "reasonable" concession. But it isn't, because conceding that is accepting that a kid's trans identity is on some level fraudulent 422806746

Bedwellj101 @alyx.whatthetrans.com · 04/09/2026I'm usually quite chill about protest signs. For example wishing ill on public officials and other content. When I get photos of it. It's at least good content really showing the frustration of the community. Ai, I just hate it. It just looks shit. 030
Bedwellj101 @alyx.whatthetrans.com · 04/09/2026It's always frustrating when we are sorting through the protest photo archive we have and we see protest signs with GenAI art or text on it... Please just stop using it. We've already had to remove some signs from our photo archive and put them in a non public one. 161
