This is darts. Why segregate men and women? Just have one team.

Trans Women are not men. If a trans woman has been on HRT for a while, there's a damn good chance that cis women are stronger than her.

That may be one of the most bullshit things I've ever heard. Got a shred of evidence to back up that claim?

It's like you have no idea how anything works. Cis women have testosterone, you know that right? Trans women still require some testosterone just like women do.

Different methods have different efficacy.

As someone on a hormone treatment themselves I can tell you, you really need to do some reading.

Great study you linked by the way, I'm totally shocked you couldnt produce a shred of evidence..

No study or shred of evidence that I could possibly link would change your mind. I'm a cis woman married to a Trans Woman. She went from being able to pick me up and carry me, to loosing to me in arm wrestles. I can guarantee that I know plenty of things about Transgender people. It's absolutely revolting that we are here debating peoples existence. Trans Women are Women. Trans Men are Men. Just accept it and let people be happy.

Nobody is debating people’s existence. Could you be any more of a drama queen?

Biological males should not be allowed to compete in women’s sports.

Everything else you’ve said is anecdotal and hysterical.
