<![CDATA[So, my uni women's rowing club decided to restrict membership to cis women only.]]>So, my uni women's rowing club decided to restrict membership to cis women only. In response, a new "open" division was created that anyone can compete in.

Lots of women left to join the open division instead, and now the women's club are complaining about losing their best rowers.

Be transphobic, lose support.

That's the conses of your quences, folks.

I was a classicist in a previous life, now I just do Greek & Latin for fun. Always happy to make an attempt at translating stuff into either.

Yup. Sports like tennis and shooting that intentionally have different formats for different genders (e.g. 3 games per set vs 5) so you can't compare athletes, should be shamed out of it. And an "open" class is imvho often a good way forward from status quo.

But also the phrase "conses of your quences" is gonna stick with me, thank you for that.

I wish the new rowing club much success and joy!

nugati/iocati sunt, poenas dederunt/luerunt

women would generally prefer to compete against everyone, and finish in the middle of the pack (or even lower)

than be at the "top" of women-only divisions

ALL athletes like to push themselves against the best competition, and care more about how other athletes see them than some result in the newspaper

Apparently this is also happening on a national level with US women's rugby, so it's part of a broader trend that is awesome to see.

The terves really can't understand that most people don't consider trans women the enemy, and they're going to pick their friends over the bigots.
