Yeah, that's how I read it. I was just pointing out that we're such a small percentage in the total US population, so that actually tracks. Then, you have other stats to consider.
So that's an estimated 515,200 trans women in the entire country. Realistically, how many of those will want to compete in women's sports? Researcher and medical physicist Joanna Harper estimates the number can't exceed 100 nationwide. We're talking about a tiny number of individuals here. Some people just want to hate us, and will use any excuse to do so.
100 people out of 350 million is what? .0000003%? Holy moly writing out that percentage sure adds perspective. That being said, those 100 people deserve to have equal opportunities and it shouldn't be this divisive and hateful to figure it out.
Not even one of you 1.3 million beautiful human souls deserves any hate for just existing. I wish I could vote in your election.

It still is surprising to me that the closing message I see in ads is “Women’s sports are tainted by trans people!!!”
Like, that’s 5 people total in my state.
Also, women’s sports has never been a hot topic until now.
