Your thinly veiled bigotry is still just bigotry, despite hiding it behind a strawman

I'm not into any sports at all, of any kind. I dont think I could even name 10 athletes in total - either male or female.

I'm also pretty sure that wouldn't be a blocker on me having a meaningful discussion about trans inclusivity in sports

Well yeah, you don’t care about either side of the issue, you just care about inclusivity. The meme is making a point that most people that make these comments aren’t caring because they actually care about both sports (which would be the opposite of your situation), but because they are just bigots.

Solid point, applies to abortion too. I don’t know anything about the process and I’ll frequently see a reason for abortion and think “that’s another good reason”, and that’s why I believe in pro choice, things aren’t simple and banning abortion doesn’t help anyone.
