“…you’re sort of telling on yourself already—is you don’t believe these people are women”
Is it really “telling on yourself” if it’s a statement of what we openly and explicitly believe? I feel like this is common among SJWs: if they have accepted some nonsense for political (rather than rational or scientific) reasons, then everyone must totally agree and would only contradict it from sheer blind bigotry. It couldn’t be further from the truth. I’ve thought long and hard about it and I don’t think trans women are women.
Edit: It’s also very easy for her to say this when she’s of the outgoing generation (as to pro sports I mean) and can safely leave her younger teammates and fellow-players to deal with any influx of trans women. She’ll be able to sit comfortably on the sidelines, woofing it up about how men should be allowed to take spots from younger women players since it won’t directly affect her. I know for now TRAs can make the excuse that there aren’t that many such examples, but what happens if we spend the next 20 years or more happily transing kids/teens and then they grow up? And what about the fact that the numbers of trans-identifying adults are growing by the year? Does she think none of them will end up in women’s soccer? It beggars belief.

Most Leftist beliefs are built upon a handful, or large amount, of foundational beliefs that you must hold for them to work. These foundational beliefs to them are reality itself, so of course everyone must hold them. Those who don't aren't worth even talking to because they are crazy.
Its why its impossible to reason with Leftists. Your opposition to them, in their eyes, is built upon denying reality. And if you aren't crazy, you must be doing it intentionally for evil. Whether its to trick them or simply to cause damage, either way you are a monster they must now destroy.
She’s “assuming the sale”, which is standard practice for leftists. They treat all of their insane premises as 100% given. This puts their opponents on the back foot in most cases. It’s important to hold their feet to the fire and nail down those first order principles before engaging in debate or compromise.
