    You sound like a bog standard social conservative.

    Please name the trans women athletes who have won Olympic medals during the many years they’ve been allowed to compete. They have a clear advantage, right, so it should be easy to find.

    I’ll wait.

      Sports decide themselves, of which world rowing and boxing have blanket bans. Athletics, cycling, swimming, rugby and cricket are bans if the transition was after puberty. Triathlon, tennis and archery requires testosterone testing. And all other sporting bodies are on a case by case basis.

      That’s why we don’t see them because the Olympics themselves have said:

      high-level organised sporting competitions - relies on a level playing field, where no athlete has an unfair and disproportionate advantage over the rest.

      I’m tired of replying to everyone, please put more effort into your argument

        Please stop gobbling right wing propaganda and make a sensible argument yourself, and then we can have a discussion. “centrist”.

        You won’t though. So don’t waste people’s time.
