At the beginning I want to underline one thing. This topic isn't suppose to be offensive, rude, racist, homophobic or whatever you want. I just feel awful disgust after last Iron Lady Cup which I observed. Now, to the meritum.

As everyone knows, Scarlett is a man, who feels like a woman, and I'm 100% ok with that. Sometimes life is like that, you was born a female in male body. BUT there is one problem in my opinion. Why she is allowed to play girls tournaments? Now, why I am asking this question? Its simple. A man who wants to be woman, takes even hormone treatment ISNT ALLOWED to participate for example olympics for women. From obvious reasons. Man has better physical conditions than women and its just simply unfair for the rest. IMO same is in Starcraft. There are many girls who can compete with man on high level (female bonjwa Aphrodite, Maddie, CadenZa, Eve, Sakura, Flo) BUT this girls will probably never be as good as male progamers.

Conclusion: I just find it very unfair to allow a male player to play in ladies tournamets and wins them. I hope you understand my point of view and I won't be hatred by anybody, because as I mentioned before, Im totally ok with Scarlett, I respect her, wish her best, accepts her decisions and I'm not trying to be offensive.

Please think about it... Love and hugs

Starcraft 2 is a game where girls do not have any specific advantage in terms of physicality.

In my opinion girls tournaments are more for getting girls into the game than showing off female talent. Its more a mental thing why there is not as many female progamers. So in my opinion it dosent really matter.

I think the point is that Scarlett has the mind of a woman, and sc is all about the mind, not the body.

Well, I think you didn't get the main problem. What if somebody will want to cheat organizer next time and will try to fake such thing? Free cash if he is a better player...? Please, don't kill me for this thread -_-

1. The organizers of the tournament INVITED HER.

2. men and women are separated in the olympics because physically the men are much more dominant. In starcraft 2 men are more dominant because there must be a 90-1 ratio of males to females, not because physically we are any better at the game.

I always thought it was funny when someone said something that was pretty clearly going to be offensive to a large group of people and then said "i'm not trying to be offensive" at the end of it, like it somehow makes it okay.

are you aware of any such thing? because that certainly didnt happen here.

edit: also, this tournament was for like $200 and a mouse. not like its even that large of a tournament that people would be willing to destroy their reputation to enter.

Scarlett IS a female, born in a male body, but her brain is female.
Your brain is what you are. Your body is just a bag of meat to support the brain with oxygen, input via senses, and limbs to move the brain around.
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
