  • I think you’re trying to lead into some existential “what even is gendered sex” like its not obvious.

    If you’re born with women parts you can be om womens team, or mens team for all i care.

    If you’re born with mens parts, you may not compete against those that were born with womens parts.

    Anything beyond that would need a doctors expertise.












  • Those rules are already in place, professional sports require trans athletes to receive treatment in a controlled environment to make sure it’s all fair.

    Wrong, most sports don’t. Most countries don’t. Most countries doesn’t acknowledge that being trans is even a real condition.

    I saw a documentary of the olympic “spot checks” for potential men competing with women. It’s a shit show. They knocked on the doors at the hotels and asked them to show what’s between their legs. I guess it’s something, but kind of “ad hoc” and likely more undignified than it needs to be.



  • Trans girls are not stronger than other girls. Any increased muscle mass vanishes with hormone therapy as the testosterone supporting it goes away.

    Yeah, but then you’d need rules for checking that too.

    And of those three ONLY the first can be of any value

    Yes, and one is enough for making competitions unfair.

    No? They can play with the boys. Changing rooms can be arranged. Why is it important for a trans-girl who went through male puberty to play with girls that are smaller and physically weaker?

    I should probably clarify that i mean compete in competitions, dont care in the slightest who or how they want to practice. That’s just fair.
