Trans woman, 42, who joined University of Nottingham hockey team

r/

People have been mocking Rachel for her looks. Rachel is a very courageous and intelligent woman willing to take a stand against Trum like misogyny and transphobia. This makes her beautiful in my book. This brave lady just wants to play village hockey with her mates. Let her play I say and protect women’s grass root sport from bigoted baseless hate.

I don’t know how to do the archive link. Sorry.

    Trans woman here. I love sports. Haven’t played them in over a decade though.

    I don’t want to upset someone, even though I feel like sports are meant to be for fun and not just competitive.

    She “doesn’t feel safe” playing on the mens teams, why not?
