There are things that are coming. We don’t see them but they can be seen coming: the future of bitcoin, Xi Jinping’s China or the host that the scooter is going to take. What he did not imagine is that this would happen in Torrelodones, a chastity refuge for Spanish sports.

An aspiring local police officer presented a notarial deed constituting himself a woman on the day of the physical test for access to the body (men lift a five-kilo medicine ball and women three). The request caused perplexity – trembling, I imagine – among the examiners, gripped by responsibility and unable to articulate her thoughts:

-Send eggs!

Far from sending him to fry asparagus, they chose to open two files on him and make him lift the two balls, lest someone denounce them for transphobia. Luckily, the notarial deed was not accompanied by the mandatory endorsement of the Civil Registry and our smartass will either enter as a male police officer or have to leave with his tail between his legs, unless, of course, he declares himself a woman, if only because in the locker room The feminine ones do not invade the space, they do not spill things and they do not shout (especially those of the paddle tennis, Attila’s Huns from the men’s changing rooms).

The Torrelodones police candidate honors with his request the tradition of the rogue, who used to be beaten up and now spread the red carpet, thanks to the trans law that would have been so popular in the days of compulsory military service.

Torrelodones has a casino with a doorman and a glorious name. Between the cold and the absence of nightclubs, all the greats of the golden age of Spanish boxing were concentrated –or were concentrated– in Torrelodones, synonymous with chastity, physical exercise and a healthy life. There they prepared for the big fights and reflected, such that the great José Legrá, a good and devoted man, as proof of this great phrase, dedicated to an opponent (Howard Winstone) one day in the ring with a title at stake.

–If God helps me, I’ll kill him!

There are things that can be seen coming and one is the avalanche of deliberations that the trans law will provoke in sports, including Torrelodones.
