Columnist: I'm standing up for what I believe in! Protecting women's sport! And I'll keep standing up for it, no matter how much those snowflakes try to silence me and my right to free speech!
Citizen: That's fantastic! You know, female athletes have to put up with so much vicious misogyny and abuse, especially on social media. Some men really can be snowflakes when it comes to women's sport.
Columnist: No! I'm raising the big issue in women's sport, and I'm being /attacked/ for it!
Citizen: Really?! People are attacking you for saying female athletes deserve equal pay for equal work?
Columnist: Not that one! I'm talking about something far more serious, affecting the health and wellbeing of female athletes. And even the very integrity of women's sport itself!
Citizen: Do you mean how sports science focuses almost exclusively on male athletes, leading to women suffering anterior cruciate ligament injuries at six times the rate of men (citation: https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/26/magazine/acl-tear-women-girl-sports.html )?
Citizen: Or do you mean how elite women's sport is routinely relegated to worse venues and TV coverage, with less sponsorship and promotion?
Columnist: No! I'm talking about protecting women's sport from the scourge of men transitioning for the sole purpose of winning at women's sport!
Citizen: Why would a professional male athlete who's not trans want to go through all the challenges and discrimination of transitioning for less pay, less TV coverage, fewer sponsorships, smaller crowds, less promotion, higher injury risk, worse venue, online abuse, and rampant misogyny, just to win at women's sport?
Columnist: Because *winning*!
Citizen: Can you give an example of where this has actually happened?
Columnist: ...
Citizen: And what do you propose to do about it?
Columnist: Totally dismantle democracy, install a totalitarian dictatorship, arrest or kill anyone who disagrees with said despot, and deport ethnic minorities en masse. Also we'll use it to justify rolling back all healthcare and civil rights to trans people, establishing that human rights exist at the arbitrary will of our overload, which the despot will use arbitrarily against all women and any other individuals or groups he disagrees with.
Citizen: That seems a bit... extreme.
Columnist: It's all to protect women's sport.
Citizen: And what will you do about the other issues I raised?
Columnist: Well, if any of them, such as research into sports medicine for women or facilities for women's sport, require public funding, then we'll cut the funding and give the money back to rich supporters of our despot as a tax cut.
Citizen: I see. Say, just out of curiosity, who do you think will win the grand final in the AFLW this year?
Columnist: I honestly don't care. I'm not into women's sport, sorry.

#AFLW made such a big thing of #Auslan #interpreters at the finals - but I haven't seen anything interpreted on TV tonight for the #AFLGF. Given the experience in-ground a few weeks ago, I imagine it's not perfect for people there (if it's there at all).
-
The #AFLW #AFLWFinals are about to punish two teams by playing in 34+ degree weather, and one of the teams will have to back it up at the next #Final (prelim) next weekend. At a suburban ground with limited shade and shelter for spectators too
And, of course, no pre-show on TV, because it's important the women aren't treated equally, or they might start to expect a full home-and-away season or something.

Amazing to have #Auslan interpreter at #AFLW finals. Poor in ground experience to have them not on the screen each time there is speech... #NorthMelbourne #Adelaide

What an excellent game - such a great competition between these two. Shame it was all the way out in Casey Fields, so limited attendance (for me, I didn't go due to awful PT links). #AFLW #AdelaideCrows #MelbourneDemons #WeFlyAsOne #AFL

Excited to be able to go to #AFLW tonight, but only because I've knocked off work early. Starting a game at 5pm on a weekday is a terrible decision (also applies for #ALeagues #ALeagueWomen)
