All of this I’ve covered in this thread except the last point.
I don’t have any problem with women competing openly and without scrutiny in men’s athletics competition because I can’t think of any sport where it would confer an advantage. If there were one, I would be against it in that sport. Though safety would still need to be a consideration in any contact sport.
Also worth mentioning, I am not against the idea of getting away from the idea of having sports separated by sex completely, and somehow tiering them by ability. But I think that would be exceedingly difficult to do in a way where it was safe and fair for everyone, especially when it comes to boxing and martial arts. But for other non contact sports, I don’t see any reason to have a division by sex at all, just have tiers from best to worst.
Which other threads? I’m supposed to find everything you wrote in conversations with other people in the hopes that I can find out why you think an 11-year-old Olympian shouldn’t have their gender tested but an 18-year-old Olympian should?
Also, how do you define a gender-based advantage in a sport? Can you define it?
Also covered under the threads spawning from this parent thread. I’m starting to feel trolled here, so please just read the comments under this parent thread, I’ve answered all your points already.
I’m trolling because you expect me to find all of your other conversations in a thread with over 150 posts to find out whether or not you actually answered my questions and I find that unreasonable? Really?
They are literally all in branches of this thread. I’m not going to keep answering the same questions over and over (many of which I already answered for you specifically).
The youngest Olympian this year was 12. The youngest Olympian ever was 11.
Why? Why would any woman want to not only prove their biological sex, but allow that private medical information to be public?
How about letting women compete openly and without scrutiny in any men’s athletics competition? Shouldn’t men be tested too?
