not previously welcome in that industry

There was no formal ban or anything on trans referees and the first female ref was in 1997. I dont think there was anything stopping trans individuals from becoming referees. There is no gender limit or anything.

This just seems like a needless celebration of identity politics. I dont care what the gender of my ref is. Or the race. Or the religions. Just that they get the calls right.
