What the evidence says about trans women athletes performance?

Trans women perform worse than c1s women athletes in lung function, efficiency of breathing, & fitness (Braga et al., Saitong et al., & Alvares et al.) when normalised to body size.

Also begging people to get better at recognizing when someone's Super Queer (tm) identity is just yet another manifestation of someone trying to identify as "Not Like Other Girls (tm)".

The eagerness to call us "biological males" was pretty alarming!

Ignoring the fact that "biological sex" is a loaded, political term pushed by Gender-Conservatives to treat trans people as unnatural---my biology has fucking changed! That's kind of the point!
Like, at first glance, I thought a fucking TERF had written it. It took me a little bit to realise this was a cis "ally" "defending us"

Stop this and actually fucking LISTEN to trans people and look up the science and stop doing this. It hurts us and we don't appreciate it

It's hard to determine whether the blame lies more with trans advocacy abandoning any and all radicalism while trying to find a palatable message for a cissexist society married to sex-essentialism, or with cis people's inherent discomfort with sex being mutable.

All I know is this fucking sucks.
