With the picture on the left I’ll hear things like “trans women are so beautiful,” “you have every right to be who you are,” “you were definitely meant to be a woman,” and “you are a woman now, why even say you are transgender.” The picture on the right is a different story. Y’all will say things like “not fair, born a man and still a man,” “I’m all for you being yourself but you shouldn’t be competing against women,” “why don’t you start a league for transgenders,” and “just stick to wearing lingerie and leave the sports to the real women.” Those are all actual replies I’ve received. Whats even more insane is most men who want to comment and speak up about trans women in sports don’t even watch or follow women’s sports! People just want to interject their opinion and bias into things they think need their opinion. Rather than trying to isolate and exclude trans individuals from society, focus on your life. Would you want to be excluded or deemed unworthy because of who you are? Stop judging people based on their race, gender, sexuality, gender identity, religion, nationality, etc…live and let live already, damn! ———————————————————
I’ve said this over and over…the fears and stigmas around trans athletes are false! The Olympics have had a policy in place since 2004 allowing trans athletes to compete, name a single trans Olympian…I’ll wait….
———————————————————
The few trans athletes who have had success, have done so because of the hard work and training they put into their sport, period! If it was an unfair, biological advantage, all the other trans athletes who compete would be winning as well. ———————————————————
My existence should not be on the DL, for you to fetishize, or limited to “trans only” leagues, groups, or events. Stop trying to “other” me. I’m here, I’m going to pursue my dreams, and live my life…that is not going to change based on your unsolicited opinions!

Let them judge you. Let them misunderstand you. Let them gossip about you. Their opinions aren’t your problems. You stay kind, committed to love, and free in your authenticity. No matter what they do or say, don’t you doubt your worth or the beauty of your truth. Just keep shining like you always do. ~Scott Stabile~

I’ve learned that everyone will have an opinion, even if what they want to talk about has no impact on their life in any way. Y’all can throw as much hate and shade against me and my dreams as you want but know this…I don’t care! My goals and dreams are bigger than me and far bigger than you. Trans people exist and that existence is not up for debate or discussion. We deserve the right to live freely, pursue our dreams, and achieve everything we set our hearts and minds to…including the game of basketball!!
————————————————
Can you imagine a world where everyone focused on being kind, committed to love, and were free in their authenticity…One day

Y’all aren’t going to beat me down. I’m over here…happy, healthy(ish), and determined to live my dreams. I’ll educate where I can and work hard at being polite when I do so but just know I’m not going anywhere and neither are the rest of us. Trans people have always existed and will continue to do so. We BELONG in society and deserve equality!

@sydmaxfit “Been really obsessed with stepping out of my comfort zone lately.

The work never ends right? I may feel at home in my body but old habits can sometimes be hard to shake.

I think pre-transitioning, most of my confidence was a facade. It was there to distract me from how I really felt…lost.

I was always the life of the party. Loud & silly & just without a care in the world. And to some degree, that’s still me!

But as I’ve come to really find myself, I’ve realized that being confident isn’t as easy as it used to be. It takes work!

Not because I don’t love myself as much…rather, quite the opposite.

It’s simply because I no longer feel the need to detach. Everything is much more real now.

I’m finding TRUE confidence in myself & any kind of deep growth like that is gonna require some discomfort. But I’m here for it!!!

So, in honor of being confident, here are some pics in my new @rodeohs underwear. Super stoked about this partnership & can’t wait to try on more for you guys. Seriously some of the softest boxers I’ve ever worn!!! Go check them out!” ⭐️
