I’ve come to realise that Americans don’t like sports per say. They like the spectacle. It explains why they prefer American football to football. Four hours of show to one hour of actual sports.

It also explains their attitude to expansion teams. From a European perspective, getting a fanbase to “love” your team within a year of creation is wild. Most newly created teams in football are detested and get labeled as being “purchased” rather than having fans, even if they win. A fandom is something you get from growing up with a team, and you never, ever change the team.

In your example, there would be evidence that they lied on a form. Obviously anyone can put whatever they want on a form.

Wouldn’t really prove anything, but if they lied there would be evidence? Are you stupid?

Don’t you think they know if they do or don’t?

I’m not qualified to answer that. I assume a doctor might be able to answer.

But not having a dick is a start.

That’s definitely one way of making sure that a woman will never win again in athletics.

They did do that in golf, of course with handicaps like a shorter tee off for women, so not a fair competition.

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.

Nobody is forcing anyone. But saying they can’t play badminton because they are trans is false.

Truth sucks.

Sure they can. But with the boys.
