I don’t like shutting down conversations, and this one hasn’t gotten that heated yet, but I’m going to ask you guys to please take this discussion to DMs (or, even better actually, MU’s discord has a #debate channel which is pretty sick - and they actually ‘moderate’ debates there) because cookie thread isn’t the place for this and and I can’t be around constantly to make sure this stays respectful lol

i am not suggesting that my idea is a perfect system. but sports is nothing but giving people advantages. we’re simply fine with this one becasue it reinforces patriarchy

I see no risk of it running into non-respectful territory but aight
yeah you’re right sorry

just fwiw there’s contradicting studies on this, and i’m specifically saying this through the lens of trans women competing in sports. we don’t have a lot of strong evidence to suggest that anything makes a truly significant difference other than muscle mass, and, at least as far as trans women are concerned, their muscle mass normalizes after a couple years. and there’s only a handful of sports where muscle mass is such a dominating factor that women can’t compete in it. odds are that there are women who could compete at a high level in any sport even if there would be vanishingly small numbers of them.
