My guess is it plays a large enough role. Michael Phelps had physiological advantages…. How do you measure all physiological differences? I don’t have an answer. It’s not a big enough problem for me to care. I find it odd that some people are more concerned with this nonsense than people dying from COVID. What do you find more important?tech37 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2023 3:50 pmDoes testosterone play that large a role? If a trans went through puberty as a male, seems as though there are other physiological advantages already in place that have nothing to do with testosterone levels, post transition. Doubt the ncaa knows.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2023 3:14 pmNot sure many people pick a “sex dejour”…..not enough to be of concern. I never see this stuff…. Not sure many people here have said a guy playing lacrosse for instance should be able to move to the women’s team the next year and just play. Though I did see a guy playing field hockey. Not sure if it were varsity or club.DMac wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2023 3:11 pmGeezuz H, TLD, you want to do nothing but give me hard time about this and I know we are in agreement on darn near all of this stuff.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Tue Oct 10, 2023 1:23 pm
DMac, who has competed collegiately without taking at least a year off to transition? I would argue one year isn’t enough, personally.
Who said you are a trans hater? I haven’t. Why post these stories if you don’t have medical insight and it’s complicated since you have an open mind on the topic?
I would argue that one year isn't enough too but of course I'm not a medical expert so I would have to know more about the entire process. So you and I agree there has to be a cut off point which is what I've said all along.
Why post anything on any threads when your not an expert and hold a PhD on the subject. I've you before they pop up on feed and I've posted some of them on here.
Who said I'm a trans hater? There are mighty strong connotations if you say anything other than it should be wide, what's your sex dejour for today's competition.
MDlax, okay, maybe "right" isn't the best word so you put in the right one for me (but you understood exactly what I meant).
What man has moved to play a collegiate sport against women without transitioning and taking a year off? Legitimate question. I may have missed it so I am asking you. You brought it up.

We can’t reduce deaths but we can stop these transgenders?
