NPR tried to claim that men who compete in women’s sports don’t have a physical advantage.
No, really.
We made the same face. Their garbage take was in response to the international governing body for track and field banning trans-women from elite women’s competitions which really does make sense considering how many men who think they are women keep destroying actual women in women’s sports.
They actually said, ‘despite limited scientific research involving elite trans athletes.’
The international governing body for track and field will ban trans women athletes from elite women’s competitions, citing a priority for fairness over inclusion, despite limited scientific research involving elite trans athletes. https://t.co/CcYOVuDVlR

Hey, we’re not scientists but we know a 6’3″ man in lipstick is stronger and faster than almost any woman. That’s not sexist, that’s not transphobic, that’s reality. Men as a rule are just bigger and faster.
Seems NPR decided to correct its silly claim:
Correction: An earlier tweet incorrectly stated there is limited scientific evidence of physical advantage. Existing research shows that higher levels of testosterone do impact athletic performance. But there’s limited research involving elite trans athletes in competition.

But still didn’t quite get there.
What a bunch of maroons.
Why do we have men & women sports? And why can’t women make the men’s team?
Isn’t that evidence enough?
If you think ‘inclusion’ should override merit you’ll need to overhaul ALL sports.
Is that what you were suggesting or do you only think women should have to suffer this?

There is limited research to show that a team of 65-year-old people, in a rainbow of gender IDs and all under 5'4" in height, would be beaten by the FAU Men's Basketball team. Therefore, we cannot say that the 6'8" tall 20-year-olds would have a physical advantage.

Why don’t we just compare the average winning race times for track, swimming, and speedskating? There’s a lot of data from biologically male and female athletes there that draw a very clear picture.

Biological men produce more adrenaline & growth hormones.

When did you stop practicing journalism, @npr?
"Existing research shows that higher levels of testosterone do impact athletic performance." Correct.
"But there’s limited research involving elite trans athletes in competition." Note: transwomen athletes have higher testosterone.— Carol Psych MD (@Carol_Psych) March 27, 2023
You thought you were going to get away with that ridiculousness? But Fox News, right🤪?

Limited evidence? All the biological women records will be broken by dudes and you will still say this.
