Keep having this conversation: Them: "Evidence says that trans women have an advantage over cis women in sport. It's science!" Me: "What evidence?" T: "Uh..." *searches frantically for evidence* ... T: "We don't need evidence it's obvious"
I never said that. I said there's no evidence for an unfair competitive advantage in sport (or any advantage for that matter)

As you know there's never going to be an RCT so evidence will be complex & maybe indirect. The Harper study (a not great case control study) showed no stat. sig. drop in performance for trans women but used by IOC to support trans women compete with cis women for example.

You could potentially design an RCT but it would be incredibly complex (waitlist control perhaps). If we're talking about the recent (2016?) study then it did show a drop in performance but since the sample size was 4 it wasn't possible to make any statements statistically
