    Well if you don’t do the segregation you will find that in some sports almost no afab people will ever reach the top.

    Some sports are of course worse than others in this regard.

    And even if there is no physical barrier, historically male dominated sports struggle to find female athletes/players. See for example chess.

    How would you solve this?

      It’s not something that needs to be solved. It’s sports. Tax sports income at 90% above 1M a year and watch it stabilise.

          Less concern about winning, more concern about being inclusive and having fun? Sign me up for that shit.

              So go do that then. Complaining about the quality of your opponent is not good sportsmanship. Just try your best and see who wins.

                Where do I complain “the quality” of my opponent? I am trying to understand their viewpoint with regard to non-segregated sports.

                I’ve spoken to some athletes about this before – women and men – and I found the opinion that sports should be gender-segregated and that the decision of where trans-athletes should be able to participate in should depend on the specific sport in question.

                In my mind good sportsmanship includes fairness and I want to figure out what is “fair” in this situation. Many reasonable people disagree in that regard I think.
