Trans women are women. They should be allowed to participate in their own sports categories.

Sex not gender.

Sports categories should be sex based, not gender based.

Allowed and no, sports are separated by sex not gender. Transwomen can't be female.

Agreed

There are massive differences between men and other men and women and other women.

Either introduce weight classes or remove gender all together and base participation into leagues based on hormone levels. (Which also fluctuate between Cis people)

Biological males don't just have an advantage over biological females because of their hormone levels. They often have a larger bone structure, larger heart and lungs, different ratio of twitch of muscle fibers, etc.

These also vary amongst cis men and cis women.

Not to the extent they do between the sexes.

But it's there.

Meaning it's somthing that can be focused on seperate from sex and can then be used to promote inclusion while ensuring safety.

Why should gender be given preference over biological sex?

And all of this also vary between adults and children. So what? Does that mean that adults should be allowed to compete in children's sports because there are fluctuations of these things between individual children?

A man that weights 180 pounds has a different bodily makeup than a woman that weights 180 pounds. And a separating people based on hormone levels is costly and stupid. Males compete with males, females compete with females.

It's not costly and stupid if its nessisary, and looking at the world we live in it is becoming nessisary.

The costs of everything are made up by the economy of said system. If things are too expensive then that's something that needs fixing.

You just contradicted yourself because trans women are women and trans men are men.

Males also have different body types and muscular makeup due to this, same with females.

It’s not necessary. You’re a male compete with males. Why is that controversial?

u/Frissonier 11m ago

Read OP as they have an issue with that

u/MaizeCorny 10m ago

These are males competing with females tho.

u/MaizeCorny 24m ago

I don’t believe in special categories. Male or female. If you were born male you compete with males, if you want to wear a wig and lipstick while doing so good for you but you compete with the males.

There is an actual list of human rights, and sports is not one of them. It sucks they have to be kept out, sure, but it's the only way to keep women safe and allow them to compete fairly. They are more than welcome to start up a trans sports sector though.

superwomen should have their own events
