The trans athlete “debate” would have dramatically affected me growing up.

I was 5’2” at 8 years old. 6’0” at 12. Parents complained so often i was the wrong age, i carried a copy of my birth certificate. I would have 100% been the target of the trans-vestigators. I remember a Dad at basketball as a freshman screaming at me because I had a varsity jacket from a fall sport. He rallied the entire audience to scream that I was lying about my age BEFORE the game started. The game couldn’t start until they pulled up my school transcript. I was mortified.
