But we're trying to address a specific problem. How can you let someone with a clear advantage compete equitably with someone who does not have that advantage. And that is what we are discussing; can trans women compete with cis women in a fair and equitable manner? The only way to let them compete equitably is to either give one an advantage or give one a disadvantage. Having trans women reduce testosterone for example is giving trans women a disadvantage. If you want a fair competition between mismatched opponents you can add a handicap. I can golf with Tiger Woods because of our relative handicaps. If a jockey is too small, they make the horse carry extra weights. Bowling uses handicaps, as do many sailing competitions. If we can find a way to make things equitable, then the competition will be fair. That doesn't mean we have to do it, but it does mean we can do it.

These are all assumptions/obstacles you created in your head with no facts to support. Quite simply, you are expressing personal anxieties and projecting them onto female athletes.

I'm not a politician looking for allies. How you play it is up to you. I'm on nobody's team. As you know, start talking feminism, I will appear to a do a 180, where I am more in concordance with him and MigL, and will be just same with you on that subject in opposition. For me, what's important is that I am internally consistent with my own thoughts and are steered towards nature. If peoples thoughts align with mine, great, but nature is the boss when the evidence says so.. He's a thoughtful person... and we all like arguing.

That was given in evidence to a house committee recently, by women who trained alongside him. The swimmer was Lia Thomas, who is 6ft 4". I would have linked the report but I can't find it. I think the evidence was given in the last week. This is about the same topic, but it's not the original that I read. : Lia Thomas exposed 'male genitalia' in women's locker room after meet, Riley Gaines says: Dropped 'his pants' | Fox News No work needed. Men compete with men. Women with women. That's equitable.

Tall and skinny people or so-called “lanky” people aren’t always physically strong but might be informative in how they still have an extreme mindset throughout their lifespan. As such obesity might occasionally be a result of competition between smaller and taller people where small people could match the tall and muscular people in terms of diet. Yet “lanky” people are a disproof that a high diet would lead to a more extreme mindset. So even if the super tall bodybuilders and basketball players all starved their diets they’d still be way more devout in their existence than overweight, smaller people. In other words taller people won’t shorten in stature if they become food deprived.
