[quote=Anonymous]NP. It really annoys me how people are conflating a person's right to publicly transition and be accepted that way with their right to compete in sports. Even after transitioning, there are still biological differences between men and women. You wouldn't try to hide the fact that you transitioned from a medical doctor, for example, because it might actually be relevant to your diagnosis or treatment options - you're really the sex you started with, biologically. Sports are a biological thing. The fastest and strongest woman in the world will NEVER be as fast or strong as the fastest and strongest man. It's biological.

Honestly, I don't think male athletes should even be able to transition. I don't think they should pass the psych tests. Well, certainly not at the moment when they have huge incentive to transition by knowing that they'd win when maybe they wouldn't otherwise stand a chance. Men should not be able to compete against women in women's sports. Period. I've never been an athlete in my life and that's still obvious to me. It's not "anti-trans" to say so. If anything, it's "anti-women" to say otherwise.[/quote]
