Saying that the average male is better than the average female at lots of sports, I'd say the majority of sports, isn't saying they're male and they're better because they're male.

Quote:There's sexual dimorphism between male and female and humans and in humans as it stands right now males have more testosterone on average. The average male is taller, stronger, faster with a different bone structure and less body fat than the average female. That's why the average male is better than the average female at the majority of sports.So, in keeping with the "it's not because they're male" theme...can we posit that two athletes of similar t levels, similar strength, similar speed, similar skeletal structure, and similar body fat would be a good match? Building on that, if it just so happens that transitioning provides the relevant effect..there shouldn't be any specific advantage or reason to exclude them from competition with their cis gendered..well matched, peers?
