"Nice snatch."

Y'beat me to it. I was going to quote "first in the snatch lift."

The funny thing about all of this is that it's going to make women's athletics all about ex-men, who can't compete with the regular men. And as a consequence, there will be no place for elite women athletes.

The obvious solution... compete with your chromosome class.. is unlikely to be followed. Instead, we'll likely have a third gender class forced upon us, first in amateur sports (high school and college), with demands for more later.

Are you ready for the TNBA (Trans-)?

Recent “study” from a New Zealand University concludes:
“International Olympic Committee guidelines from 2015 permit transwomen to compete against cis-women if their testosterone is held below 10 nmol/L. However, this is much higher than that of cis-women. So should transwomen be allowed to compete in women’s events? The University of Otago researchers believe that they should, but that ‘the existing male/female categories in sport should be abandoned in favour of a more nuanced approach satisfying both inclusion and fairness. The best solution is to dump the male/female binary in sport, replacing it with an algorithm which takes into account gender identity, socioeconomic status and physiology.”
