For me Ill say it all evens out when a trans man is valuable to a winning program in the NFL, NBA, or MLB.

I don’t get why people have any particular strong feelings about this post, you can easily find research making this point as far back as 2021. It’s the consensus at this point. I just saw people talking about the article and figured I’d post about it.

You can probably find some articles on it. It’s a systematic review of other studies. Transgender woman exhibited “higher lean mass” than cisgender woman, but physical fitness was comparable.
