Any chance this anti-trans lobby (the right, lobbies, whatever they are) gets to erase trans people out of public life, whether at high Olympics level or at dumb for-fun high school level, they will take it. They will always try to make it so that the would-be suffering of a non existent cis woman who got beaten by a trans woman is so so much more important than the clear discrimination that trans women (and trans men, and unconventional cis women) deal with these rulings.

If it were happening at an unprecedented level, I would totally understand the attention and such, but this is just painful to see.

The same can be applied to gender affirming care for trans youth, bathrooms, etc. It is always about the "may be hurt woman" than the actively being hurt real trans people.

Gosh I hate feeling like a second class citizen.

And apparently trans women do not want that same chance at winning lol.

I find it appalling that only cis women get to have that chance, while literally banning trans women (and some unconventional cis women too) because of the way they were born and brought up.

Like that is the definition of discrimination one way or another.

You should give VRChat a try, the predecessor and more successful version of Horizon Worlds. Everything you described can arguably be done in VRChat WHILE not destroying the social aspect of it! It's really neato and VR is not even required, much less mandatory (but highly encouraged).

Yeah, for the first few months...

But I bet within less than a year you'd be doing art and coding projects, volunteer to a charity (because you are getting paid regardless!) or going back to school/self teaching yourself stuff.

The closest comparison I can give to this feeling is how teenagers manage to make awesome projects because they have the time and motivation to work on stuff, without worrying with the financial aspect of their lives.
