“Get a stretcher! Get a medic!”
Words heard at the first NHL All-Trans Draft Tournament after a male player casually bumps into a female player. The contact doesn’t look serious on video. But the size diff between players is so great that the female suffers a concussion. 🧵

Later the victim posts “I was playing the puck, and I took a very odd fall into the boards.” There is no mention of the male player who slammed her into the boards. Women often blame ourselves and provide cover for men when they hurt us.

Women are physiologically more vulnerable to such injuries due to having “significantly less isometric strength (49%), neck girth (30%), and head mass (43%), resulting in lower levels of head-neck segment stiffness (29%).”

The obvious answer is biological women need to get bigger and stronger.

Could be vaccine injured...they probably have a couple dozen shots combined between them both.

Meh, played full contact hockey with girls when I was young, I got laid out when a girl destroyer me as I came around the net with my head down.
This was a bump, no intent

When you were young? I guess that is sufficient evidence this is a good idea.

It comes out of the box and falls down on it's face...
Pretty much the entire trans movement personified.

No. Men and women don't belong on the ice together in a contact sport like hockey. No amount of skill can overcome the physiological differences between men and women.
