The fact there's a "womans" and "mens" league is kind of fucked in of itself.
I've done some heavy rapier in the #SCA #societyforcreativeanachronism . You're a fencer or you're not. (As for me, I'm more a #musician and a #dancer .)
When you practice, it's anybody who fences, using appropriate safety gear. When you enter competitions, it's anybody who entered the competition, using the appropriate safety gear.
We don't care about original or chosen gender. Its all about fighting prowess.
I'm questioning why "USA Fencing" even is splitting alongside some bullshit gender lines. Get rid of that arbitrary split. Put'em all together. It's worked for the SCA for, (checks watch) 40 years.
