The development comes after a presentation to the International Olympic Committee by its medical chief, which highlighted the potential physical advantages of competing in women’s sport after being born male.

    Or maybe trans women athletes just want to … compete in athletics? If you look at how successful the extremely small number of such athletes are, you will find that they succeed at completely normal rates.

    Someone once pointed out to me “Oh but what about this one?” to which I replied, “Ah, so trans women athletes are only a ‘problem’ when they succeed.”

    tl;dr: Go fuck yourself.

      Any data you can throw at me before hurling insults? I find it hard to believe that their performance is on par with their female peers, specially in contact sports.

          Is it unreasonable to ask for your research, when mine contradicts yours? Specially with the confidence you stated your facts.

            Apparently, since you never did. Do I just need to use small words for you, so you can understand what’s being discussed?
