🧵A story in two parts:
1. Man is allowed to join a women's volleyball team, the Jaguars, for a tournament in Mexico.
2. The Jaguars are crowned champions of the tournament.
I never would have seen that coming, especially considering the fact that this was an open tournament where this grown man ended up playing teams of young teen girls.
Mexico seems to be on the trans train as of late.
Along with the news on "Angie" Lara Gamboa, another group of 12 men who play women's volleyball recently sued the Mexican Volleyball Federation for "discrimination" (it appears one of the men was removed from a women's game) and won their case earlier this year.
Among them are two brothers, "Nancy" and "Jessica" Hernandez, both men pretending to be "sisters," who have played (and won) national masters tournaments.
"Jessica" says that he began "self-medicating" with hormones as a teen and began getting plastic surgery at 18.
I don't speak Spanish, so could anyone translate the gist of what these guys are saying here?
