Comment on A real question about trans athletes and records
FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 1 day agoafter enough time at typical female hormone levels muscle mass generally decrease to be inline with cis women.
Muscle mass != strength though. Also someone that is physically larger isn’t going to have their muscle mass shrink to that of someone that is a foot shorter.
but conceivably there are sports where transmen might be at an advantage, where a typically lighter smaller frame may be a win.
The complete abscense of trans men in male sports competitions says this isn’t a thing.

Weight and height classes exist
The near absence of trans people in sport, tends to indicate this really isn’t much a of a thing to begin with
hyperbole much?
FreedomAdvocate@lemmy.net.au 1 day ago
Not in every sport. Are there weight and height classes in track and field? Football? Soccer?
It’s becoming more and more prevalent, don’t pretend like it isn’t. If it isn’t stopped there will be no women in the womens divisions of sports, only trans women.

IIRC this is the study that counted medals multiple times
But I’m glad you have your culture wars to fill in your day

You act like you’re not participating in this “culture war” as much as I supposedly am lol.
You said it’s barely affecting anyone. I posted evidence that it affects hundreds/thousands of people. You dismiss it based on you thinking you remember something lol
