Some things seem obvious. You’d think it would be unnecessary to question whether athletic men are stronger and faster than athletic women. But with the gender-confused crowd making a fuss, people felt it necessary to see how fair it was for confused men to play on female teams.
“The Sports Councils’ Equality Group found that there are “retained” differences in an average woman’s strength, stamina, and physique, compared with the average transgender woman “with or without testosterone suppression.”
“As a result of what the review found, the Guidance concludes that the inclusion of transgender people into
female sport cannot be balanced regarding transgender inclusion, fairness, and safety in gender-affected sport
where there is meaningful competition. This is due to retained differences in strength, stamina, and physique
between the average woman compared with the average transgender woman or non-binary person assigned
male at birth, with or without testosterone suppression.”
“Based upon current evidence, testosterone suppression is unlikely to guarantee fairness between
transgender women and natal females in gender-affected sports:
a) Transgender women are on average likely to retain physical advantage in terms of physique, stamina,
and strength. Such physical differences will also impact safety parameters in sports which are combat,
collision, or contact in nature.
b) Recent international policy on testosterone limits are set at a level below 5nmol/L in sports which choose
to provide entry into female sports for transgender women. This is more appropriate than the 10nmol/L
which is stipulated by the International Olympic Committee and which remains within the normal range
for males. The current preliminary 12-month period is unlikely to result in the achievable minimization of
physical capacity”
The review went on to say that the only way it would be fair is if the sport does not depend on the physique of the athlete, but instead just skill. So like chess, darts, or archery. But anything athletic like track, there would be an unfair advantage. This seems to be common sense. But I guess Libs would need a full-on study in order to accept the norm.
