  • The statistic I’ve read is that the top 90% of men are stronger than the bottom 90% of women. The inverse of that is that only the bottom 10% of men are weaker than the top 10% of women.

    Obviously this is a matter of strength only, and isn’t a direct measure of skills, but in most sports does have an impact on skill. I feel like martial arts is a sport where strength is such a significant factor that weight classes are so strictly measured in such small increments.

    Beyond that, I can’t speak in regards to what effect being cis/trans, or other hormonal situations, have on competition.


  • Or fucking Wrestling! How many pro-Wrestlers were zooted to the gills on pharmaceuticals?

    Pro wrestling isn’t a real competition, it’s scripted, and winners are either pre-determined, or “chosen by the audience.”

    But now, we’re supposed to pretend estrogen is a performance enhancing drug?

    No, they’re pretending that being AMAB means that puberty blockers and testosterone suppression don’t matter. They’re saying that trans women are men.
