If you're coaching a girls' team and you advocate that boys who say they are girls should be allowed to play on the team too, then that should be grounds for dismissal from the coaching role, as you'd be disadvantaging the girls on the team that you're supposed to be supporting.

This would be an entirely warranted "punishment for opinions" because of your failure to adequately safeguard young female athletes.

Appreciate the demonstration of why Chatham House Rule can protect opinions on the left side of the spectrum. Just to be clear, this is a real live example of someone saying that an individual should be punished for their opinions, separate from their actions.

It's more a demonstration of how this rule can be used to protect views on the misogynistic side of the spectrum and quietly undermine women and girls. Perhaps, it's how much of this lobbying for male privilege was actually done.
