You, a trans fan of women's soccer, wake up to another one of God's glorious days on this green earth

You turn on your computer.

"Transes are taking away from my ability to be in the NWSL as a bottom-tier player"

"We, the league, don't even have a trans policy. Don't blame us. We had one that was ok back in 2021 but we got rid of it the next year under pressure lol"

"Trannies in soccer? What photo should we lead with? A black woman? Yeah let's go with that"

"No, I'm not being transphobic. I'm not saying he's trans. I'm saying he's male, like Imane Khelif"

You go to report this shit to the mods, but are confused by the available options. You look at the rules, but they are silent on transphobia.

You pop open that bottle of Polish liqueur you've been saving. You're not at a stadium watching a game, but what the hell, time to get drunk.

You take a moment to marvel at yet another day of heated rhetoric about trans women in a situation that includes no actual trans women, right before the liqueur kicks in and you fall asleep half naked splayed across your bed.
