Bro who cares that much. Obviously trans women shouldn’t compete, and they decided on LA years ago

Trump did not ban any trans athletes. The decision was made by the Olympic council (or whatever their official name is)

Recent data suggests trans women have similar or lower athletic performance than cis women. The idea that they have higher peformance is a myth.

The policy that should be in place is “at least a year on HRT” if you want to make a fairness argument.

Could you provide a source to that? I tried looking but I couldn’t find any data substantiating that claim. I found the following two papers that support the contrary: https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s40279-020-01389-3#change-history https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9331831/
