I don't want to get bogged down too much like I always seem to in an argument of semantics.
Fox hasn't won every now and then.
She's won the majority of times.
Male to female trans people in generalI have no clue about in terms of statistics.
Where I think there is an advantage is an advantage within that individuals own capabilities.
I think if an individual has been born a natural female they'll have less capability in certain areas of certain sports in terms of hand size and height in relation to a transsexual who has spent most of their life as a man.
That doesn't mean they'll have a definite advantage vs all natural born women, even if there is an advantage it doesn't mean they'll win everything.
All it means is that if they were born a women they'd likely be shorter with smaller hands and that could be an advantage in some sports.
Yes I do acknowledge that women are sometimes taller than men and have bigger hands and there are just some women that have more testosterone than other women, but that's something I've already discussed.
Also I'm not saying I definitely know these advantages I mentioned are all the advantages there are, I still wouldn't tell the female fighters who fought fox who said she had extra strength or an advantage that they're definitely wrong

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
