Trans girls in sport are not the sinister characters some people make them out to be.

And as you can see - her friends are very happy for her to join in:

Also, before someone brings up bone density, do remember that trans girls generally have lower bone density than cis males.

Honestly im quite tired from reporting this thread, you should really make the effort to report posts yourself shizuku

What’s bone density got to do with it?

Especially when it’s hypothesised to be related to transwomen simply having a less active lifestyle.

GreyhoundG1rl · 17/04/2021 21:03

No, op. Your bizarre, deliberate misunderstanding of science is silly.

Yep

Transwomen I wouldn’t have a clue to be honest

Trans girls on the other hand....

For any lurkers who are interested, teenage boys can easily smash women's world records - boysvswomen.com/#/

Campervan69 · 17/04/2021 21:05

Its like watching a car crash. We all know the truth and these kids are being lied to by adults they trust. All of them. Shocking.

Helleofabore · 17/04/2021 21:06

Great propaganda video.

Shall we discuss whether or not Rebecca has had puberty blockers or not?

Shall we start posting the science, including the study from Harper et al, that proves the science that male puberty when not blocked provides significant advantages that testosterone reduction does not diminish?

What is your point here? Because there is a huge difference between a male with puberty blocked early enough so there is less benefits and males who did not have their puberty blocked. I think you are fully aware of this by now.

And this video has no relevance at all to the current thread of a teenage mixed sex rugby game resulting in an injury either. Of course, you know that as well.

WhatWouldPhyllisCraneDo · 17/04/2021 21:10

But no one is trying to stop trans kids from playing sports Confused

Helleofabore · 17/04/2021 21:12

Of course, you also know the facts that many of the states have restrictions for the participation of transgirls in sport.

And of course, there is the court cases where the mediocre athletes when competing against their birth sex, who had experienced male puberty and had not even reduced testosterone at the time of their races won their races against girls. The science certainly is clear that of course those transgirls had an advantage.

Quite different from the scenario you are presenting with this video of course.

Hilarious how any negative story about trans kids stays on the feminism board, and positive story about trans kids gets moved here to LGBT children.

I think that website cannot be posted often enough on this thread.

boysvswomen.com/#/

And of course it is relevant. There are teenaged males who have gone through full or partial male puberty with all the benefits who have socially transitioned and are now competing against females and winning.

Not quite the scenarios you want to bring attention to surely.
