If questioned, say it’s complicated and you haven’t figured it out yet.

The captains or vice-captains of eight inter-county teams playing in the Ladies Gaelic Football Association (LGFA) league finals have been advised by the association’s media team to avoid expressing opinions on its new transgender policy.

The LGFA will host a round of media interviews on Tuesday with the players ahead of the four finals. The Sunday Independent has obtained a copy of an LGFA briefing issued to the players that contains suggested responses to questions on controversial topics journalists might ask.

A question about the LGFA’s new transgender policy, which was introduced in February, is listed at the top of the likely topics to be raised.

And what is the new policy? Silly question. The usual “Let the gentleman play and shut up about it, ladies.”

The LGFA has refused to give any details of what consultation or medical advice it relied on before introducing the policy, which has been criticised by some players and referees as “dangerous” for allowing transgender women to play once they meet criteria set down by a new transgender applications committee.

How can it possibly be dangerous to let men play on women’s teams??! It’s not as if men are bigger and stronger and faster so how can they possibly be a risk to women??????

After the LGFA’s new transgender policy was published a few weeks ago, Kildare goalkeeper Mary Hulgraine tweeted: “Really? I’m all for equality and inclusion. But in a high intensity sport where there 100pc is physical contact… this is just dangerous. Genetically this is wrong. It goes against why female sports was created in the first place.”

But female sports was created by a lot of backward unenlightened bigoted bad people who didn’t understand about trans women.
