The development comes after a presentation to the International Olympic Committee by its medical chief, which highlighted the potential physical advantages of competing in women’s sport after being born male.

    My logic? People are acting like men’s divisions are the open divisions when it’s very much closed to anyone not wanting to endure constant harassment. I don’t think adding facts to the discussion implies any logic aside from the logic in valuing the truth.

      Ok, so I misunderstood and you actually agree we should have an open (mixed gender) division? Jusrlt adding we also need to work on preventing harassment and discrimination?

      Otherwise, you are adding the logic stating that because harassment exists, we can’t have mixed gender tournaments. Which implies we also need separate transgender tournaments, since they are also at risk for harassment in the existing ones.
