Trans player on gay TV show says new soccer rules are 'degrading' - Outsports Lars Fellows plays for an LGBTQ-inclusive football team and was the first trans contestant on the BBC's 'I Kissed a Boy'.

Lars Fellows has always loved football but turned away from the game when he transitioned.

On the FvH Podcast, the #IKissedaBoy star speaks about finding joy again at Village Manchester.

He also criticises the FA’s new rules for trans men: “It’s trying to say we don’t belong.”
