ED already decided to not allow transgenders, although they seemed to have backtracked on that because of WDF rules. But the WDF decided last year that males will be banned at the ladies tournaments, but they needed to see how they would implement the rule change. I think they will be discussing it again this year at the World cup. WDF is located in the US, so perhaps they fear lawsuits. I believe Donalds rule that there are just men and women has be declined by as judge. Should just change the location to England and they are fine. Its not like they have a big headquarters: https://maps.app.goo.gl/M6ZUNgNxmDx7udyN6
This is WDF HQ? Fuck me it's just a normal house. Where are the signs, logos? Is there even a proper reception or front desk for people wishing to make an enquiry? How many people work there? There should at least be a dartboard up front or something.

Exactly, this is the time, as PDC can refer to the law 'change'. Those high in the ranking wouldnt do it, but there are enough players below them to make a statement. Cant expect change if you simply accept the current situation.
The pdc couldn't contest a lawsuit as the new edict from the courts is crystal clear.
Female spaces are for adult biological females, not men who think they are.
