Transgender women in sport on women's hour 20/03/23

Just heard they're going to discuss it.

And in fact the evidence is there. As Sharron said, 17 studies! Not to mention everything we know about the differences between men's and women's bodies and the fact that no transmen are competing in the male categories so every man competing in the women's category means a woman is excluded. They will NEVER concede that there is enough evidence.

I thought what Seema said near the end about greater understanding of gender and 'what society will accept ' was very telling. They are pushing for an acceptance that women are second class citizens, that a transwoman is a better, more deserving kind of woman than the female kind.

Definitely PP, because there is no coherent argument for including males in the female category apart from social pressure.

Sheema wants science to come second in women's sports, whereas how many millions are spent in sports science trying to prevent doping which mostly affects the men's game?

The double standards are off the charts.

Also Sheema doesn't talk at all about the winning at all costs mentality of some athletes. Sharron knows about this. This is why male and female trans athletes want the female category. They can qualify and make wins. here
