Even the concept of a third party ordering or even requesting doctors to do anything is a challenge to medical ethics, that you’d have these ‘three party’ arrangements to prescribe the means of medical diagnoses and then treatment. Obviously, it’s hard to balance oversight
Basically, I presume you and several other people want all regulations to go and there be no restriction in participation in female category except the stamp of "legal female" which in a large majority of countries may not mean anything.
No, that’s not what I’ve said for years and it’s not what I’m saying now. In fact, I have literally said on numerous occasions that self-identification is not enough.
I’ve written this so often in the last few weeks. I’m sorry for being curt, but four hours of podcasts and 5000 words and about 50 interviews later, I’ll have to take a hard pass on suggesting what I’d have decided and what the interim solution is, again.
I am sorry, I didn't read all that you had written or said in podcasts. I withdraw my query.
No, it’s fine, sorry for getting exasperated! Long day. Long couple weeks! Very briefly, I’d want to work backwards, from the process of implementation: 1. Determine effectiveness & at least attempt to determine risk of recommended medical protocols. At this point, there are none
2. They could do this by looking at studies on trans athletes, DSD clinics, trying to establish risk. Difficult, but not impossible. 3. Revisit the research. I think there are a few things worth doing - longitudinal cohort of women, linking T to performance with multiple measures
The biggest weakness of current research is that once-off nature of it. If this group has women taking Oral contraceptives, all the better - find the link between how OCs change performance, and is it due to T? This would be (more) solid research. 4. Opportunistic studies where
That's definitely not the biggest weakness of the research. The biggest weakness is the poor statistical design and acknowledged numerical errors that make any conclusions impossible
