      I can’t be sure, but as someone with a similar skill set, I see that as most likely. If so, I doubt he would explicitly confirm because that sometimes creates resistance. (That’s also why I explained it here in a minor end branch instead of in a more visible post)

      Yes, good point. I've wondered if Scott's seeming fuzziness on this whole issue is simply a way to create energy around this topic that stimulates discussion. If so, mission accomplished.

      It is simpler. I’m calling out the illusions in politics wherever I spot them. On this topic, it is an illusion that allowing transgender athletes to compete makes the world less “fair.” It only changes who wins.

      Will it be fair to the women athletes who compete in a transgender world? Your misogyny is is showing.

      I try very hard to follow the "there is no such thing as fair" in sports, and the "someone has to win" school of thought. I tried. I would encourage cis gender athletes to form a cis gender league. Let the trans and anyone else compete in what is left behind.

      I was thinking that it makes sense in professional sports. That is a business after all. High School sports is more complicated, because they are supposed to be part and parcel of an educational experience.. There is a lot of debate about high school sports, elite athletes etc.

      RIP women’s sports. XY genetics will quickly obliterate all XX records in everything except possibly women’s gymnastics where smaller size and being more limber - XX genetic traits - are still advantages.

      I recall watching snowboarding in the last Olympics, thinking that such a sport would have minimal skill differences between males and females...NOPE! Both quantitatively and qualitatively, the men's runs were FAR superior to the women's runs in terms of sheer athleticism.

      For 100ks of years men have been selected for physical & tactical skills (hunting, warfare etc etc) which is why even in sports where there’s no physical requirements (chess) men still dominates women There’s no sport in which XX chromosomes can fairly compete with XY ones

      Luckily, fair outcomes is not an objective of sports. In school, sports build character and professionally they are entertainment.

          Sports have always been entertainment, and you don't want fair outcomes, but you do want to watch the winners fight with all they have to get there, and the losers to be the hardest obstacle and at least appear to have a chance. Otherwise it's not that entertaining anymore.

          Nobody is interested in playing or watching an unfair sport. Sides with unfair advantages (steroids, PED's) are disqualified. We're just arguing over what constitutes fair/unfair. Most people agree XY is unfair vs XX in sports context; you are arguing from the fringe otherwise.

          Fair OUTCOMES are antithetical to sports but that does not imply fairness has no role to play in the human play behavior we call "sports." I appreciate you making the distinction between professional and youth sports. Character building via sports participation is a real thing.

          It’s the same thinking mistake of people who want EQUAL outcomes vs EQUAL opportunities in the job arena. Nobody is asking for fair outcomes, but that seems to be what Scott is arguing against.

          There's no reason to compete if you have NO chance of being competitive. Women's sports just died.

          How's this Scott? You feel sports are not so important that we should license discrimination against a small number of trans athletes who want to compete against females. You don't see a downside. A pragmatic argument I disagree with but it’s an empirical question, let’s test it.

          Retaining the sport is an objective of sports, and men participating in women’s sports will destroy women’s sports. Also, letting NBA all-stars play on High School teams will also build character.
