No surprise and ridiculous that it needs research - but starting from here it’s very useful research!

Fucking huge surprise! Who would have thunk it!

Actually, though it is a "no-shit" paper, it does indicate that gender critical empirical research has been both funded and published.

Which is certainly progress from the previous situation where captured journals refused to publish such work.

It's daft, but it's a good sign.

What has it come to when you need a scientific study to prove the bleeding obvious?
Next up, the defecation habits of bears in tree dominant eco systems, and, the religious preferences of popes?

Post title completely baffled me before clicking the article. I hadn't considered it was about sport, thought it was some Rachel Dolezal type nonsense.

Results There was no evidence that controlling for age, natal-sex differences in running performance are lower among non-binary athletes. Natal-male non-binary athletes outperform natal-female non-binary athletes at a confidence level of p=0.1%.
Conclusions Both natal sex and gender identity may be useful explanatory variables for the performance of athletes in mass-participation races. It is, therefore, valuable to include both variables in data collection.

So gender identity makes no difference to performance, but might explain (non-existent) differences in performance?

In other news, water is wet.

Jesus. I can't believe they have to do this. Men outperform women by the same margin even if they call themselves non binary. No shit Sherlock. Why any credence is given to gender identity theory is beyond me. Just fuck off and stop wasting our time.
