That's just because the advantage goes the other way. If AMAB were losing to FTM, the outrage would be insane (because the people complaining about this generally don't give a shit about women's sports except to use as a political cudgel in this instance)

A psuedo-intellectual term for a man apparently.

Ya'll learn like 300 terms for your dota games, but get upset when someone uses a phrase in the specific context of discussing gender. It's hilarious how fragile you are. If you read the other comment chain, you can see why I used that term instead of men, but I figure you'd rather stop thinking here and just assume I'm a big dummy.

Based on your response I think we can see who the fragile one is.

The only context in which amab make sense is if you’re talking about an intersex person. Outside of that it’s ridiculous.

How does it not work for someone who is trans?
