But Divinity, CL is very experienced in sports and has analyzed a whole lot more about this subject than any member of the IOC gang. We can't even address her anecdotes and personal feelings even with the good logical arguments that we have put forward. She's that good.

You don't really see all the trans women failing because it doesn't sell. Fear sells - the target audience is obvious as well but whatever. It's like you watch a people are awesome video and think oh it's so easy but it is in fact not easy at all because you missed out on the thousands and thousands of times people fail to do something and probably die as well. The mind sees what it wants to see.
Yep, confirmation bias. The human psychology ... how interesting it is ...

No. In this scenario Duran is not lowering "her" testosterone levels. "She's" decided to wait until after "her" Boxing career is over. Roberto, ( now Roberta ), Duran just simply identifies as a woman and is challenging Ronda Rousey for her title. Would that be a fair competition, to pit a much stronger "Roberta" Duran, who held five different championship titles as a man in five different weight classes, against a far outclassed Ronda Rousey? You're saying it makes a difference? Why? "She" was born male but identifies as a female. Wouldn't it be bigoted to keep "Roberta" from competing against other female fighters?
