No surgery is required. Just lowering testosterone for a year. And McKinnon (who set this argument off) reckons even thats unfair and transwomen should not even have to lower that..because, testosterone does not give an advantage Seriously. McKinnon is ****ing nuts. Watching them explode all over twitter calling near everyone a transphobe is hilarious really. About time the issue was properly dragged into the sunlight though, I do wonder how many male bodied women will be in the next Olympics..'technically' its been allowed since 2004 but surgery was a requirement then..thats been removed recently. Only seems to be a few males taking advantage though, but that will change fairly quickly, esp with the likes of Russia.

--- Personally I'd want the option that offends less people, but at the same time, if we have the Olympics and Paralympics, I find it hard to argue that there shouldn't be trans categories And if there weren't trans categories, trans athletes would still be hounded with questions and people saying "they had an advantage!!", so I don't think there's a side that wins |

No I don't get why they would be offended, its about giving them a level playing field in sport, I don't know why everything has to be a negative, , for ftm transition it would give them the opportunity to participate in physical sport which at the moment they can't actually do, for mtf it would take away the element that any win was unfair, so I don't see the issue at all

With the ridiculous amount of substances banned by the IOC(not all performance enhancing either) i’m very surprised that the use of synthetic oestrogens are allowed tbh.They are still hormones afterall.

Depends what you mean by 'transition'. If 'transition' involves the taking of testosterone, then they should be treat the same as any other female who was taking performance enhancing drugs. If 'transition' means simply changes presentation and changes the stereotypes they follow, then of course, why not?

I agree with the ‘third and fourth category’ personally.
