I know trans athletes excelling at their chosen sports is exceptionally rare, but is there already one website that has all the historical and updated statistics that so far show there’s no significant statistical trans advantage(transvantage!) that we can see from trans athletes going back decades?
so every time someone says “sure but if you used to be a boy, then the muscle fibers-”
and you can just be like “go to this site”.
“here are the numbers”.
when I looked up the numbers last year, I had to pop around to many different sites and read different articles, but I imagine somewhere someone must have already pulled all this together.
Can you please provide the link to the website?
That’s what I’m looking for.
when I looked before there was just a whole bunch of different websites and I had to find one athlete at a time or one statistic at a time, but there must be some website that has centralized those numbers somewhere.
I was hoping someone here would know.
maybe there isn’t one yet.

Trans women do not have sporting advantage over cis women, so segregating them from cis women is appealing to bigots and people ignorant of the data at the cost of one of the most vulnerable communities in society.
It is unacceptable.
Gender segregated sports are not the answer long term. Women’s teams are already treated like second class citizens even in sports where there is little biological advantage between the bimodal sex expressions of male and female.
The best solution I have seen is treating sports like weight classes in boxing, based on whatever advantage criteria there is for that sport. This may still act as a gender segregator in practice, but it allows anyone to compete at the level they are able without questioning their gender identity or sex characteristics.

Oh, I’m not really interested in arguing the minutia of implementation here, just presenting an alternative approach. You can find out more in this video from Mia Mulder if you’d like!
