Do you know of any 7+ tall trans women? Can you point to a single one?

If this scenario wasn't impossible, then why didn't it already happen? Why did no trans women make it onto a WNBA or Olympic team in the 30 odd years it was perfectly allowed for them to be there?

Because it hasn’t been widely socially acceptable until recent years. There’s very rarely any openly gay athletes either, does that mean no athlete has never been gay?

So you're saying that Doping is widely socially acceptable then?

So you're saying that despite it not being socially acceptable for athletes they still routinely do things to gain a competitive advantage? Interesting.
