I don't see any thread about this. I do think she has opened herself up to criticism with her arguments; hopefully she too will do some more research! But it's all good.

Perhaps as a former Gymnast Gaby Logan could now speak out about British Gymnastics appalling guidelines?

I have a minor worry that we will be given sport as a "concession" and our side of the bargain (that will be enforced not agreed) will be all the other stuff is opened up to men (as it is at the moment, although I believe the prisons are having a think about locking up rapists with working penises with the women - very big of them).

I understand that but my thoughts are that if the differences are proven, as they will be, (though why we should have to prove the bleeding obvious is as infuriating as hell) and accepted within sport then that will blow the rest of the agenda/argument out of the water which is why TRAs such as RMK are getting so desperate. The whole premise of TRAs is that biology is irrelevant once we return to sanity it will be applicable to all areas, it can't be denied.

Thank you Gaby

I'm hopeful that Reddogs is right too. The issue has been that any questions/discussion which points to the differences between women and trans women has been viewed as transphobic and therefore verboten. This will be a public conversation which highlights the differences. That's important.
