      Except it isn't because a trans woman would have a strength advantage over a cis womanhttps://twitter.com/GidMK/status/882441181233369090 …

      ...if the trans woman was on hrt they'd have similar amounts of testosterone

      I think it depends on the person really. I think we should always check for testosterone

      True but there have been many instances of cis women being overpowered easily by transwomen which indicate an advantage

      Yes, all those cis women being overpowered in professional sporting events by the multitudes of elite athletics mob. Definitely a thing

      They actually are. Transwomen are usually taller and usually stronger. One biological woman got her eye socket broken by a transwoman

      And one time a woman beat up five guys therefore women are all way stronger than men

      Oh god, a few anecdotes about trans women winning competitions. It's almost like that's exactly what you'd expect if they have no advantage

      Did you know that left-handed women occasionally win competitions? It's because they have a massive competitive advantage

          All I'm saying is that they may/may not have an advantage. Testosterone checking should be mandatory

          Did you read the blog? Testosterone is a terribly ineffective way to delineate 'male' from 'female'

          I'm not saying it applies to all trans women but it does happen. Which is why we must check.
