  • Such results may not be very useful for most people, but that's dope in an accidentally artistic way.

  • Most of the trans community agrees with this assessment.

    No they don't...

    I tried googling for some statistics regarding trans people's opinions on this matter and I didn't find anything, is there a poll either of you has seen that indicates this or is this the general consensus among trans people you know?

  • Because he's a billionaire he gets away with doing things that would destroy a normal person over and over again, I don't like the tiered consequences that our society exhibits.

  • Because athletic associations decided long ago to segregate athletics by sex to account for this average difference, even though some women are taller and stronger than men.

  • While outliers exist, this has to do with averages. On average men are taller than women, and this difference usually manifests between the ages of 12-15. This confers an advantage. However, for trans athletes who transition before puberty it's far less cut and dry and there's a good case to be made for inclusion.

  • My understanding is that's true for muscle mass. However, if they transition after puberty like Lia Thomas did, height and wingspan will remain; both of which confer huge advantages in swimming. Apparently that's a major reason why Michael Phelps did so well, his arm span is ridiculous.

  • I'm sick of the concept it represents.
