A couple weeks ago, some straight white dude dropped me this link as his "scientific" reference to justify his presumption that #trans women hold intrinsic advantages over cis women in sport. At that time, I just skimmed it cuz I was in an awful pain flare
Now that I've read it closely and watched the embedded videos, I find it pretty laughable. The article is mostly about the personal statement by some MMA fighter -- who obviously held a grudge over #FallonFox cuz she was defeated -- and some other woman calling Fallon a "man".
As for the embedded videos, they're even worse. One is a propaganda by #PragerU -- a conservatism outlet on YouTube -- which intentionally ignores the facts that all trans women athletes are on HRT for life and that committees have very strict standards about who can be admitted.
Honestly, I think only nerds insecure about their own masculinity would obsess over this issue. They are eager to "put us in our place" with their superior -- not! -- knowledge about biological science, thereby denying the legitimacy of our womanhood.
I've been trying hard to be diplomatic with these pricks -- who apparently are unaware of their selective reading and confirmation bias while fancying themselves to be "rational" and "objective". But I guess I was being naïve. I refuse to waste my precious time on them anymore.
