      I'm fairly certain height and age can be measured.

      ...right, and neither precludes you from being a bad ass NBA player. Being a biological woman, or a 7 years old Michael Jordan, pretty much does.

      Same magical thinking applies in both cases. If you think I can play center in the NBA, you also have to think a 6-year old girl can play in the NFL. Same reason = magic.

      No Scott, some pretty short guys were enlisted into NBA, vs. this: https://www.quora.com/Are-women-allowed-to-play-in-the-NBA … Physically different capabilities between those two biologically distinct categories = as far from "magic thinking", as possible. You can't make a center, well and not a SINGLE woman can.

      If you are arguing that a 5' tall senior citizen can play center in the NBA if he is sufficiently determined, I accept your total surrender.

      Well, I don't really understand your point, at this stage - you keep making analogies to _really_ arbitrary categories yourself; all the while calling perfectly legit, biologically distinct categories "arbitrary". ...While never addressing the "reductio" presented earlier /1

      Your argument makes no sense, so I see no way to address it.

      ...that's what "reductio ad absurdum" is - I took your thesis ("ALL there is to sports, is unfairness" - roughly); I find example that is patently ABSURD (adults competing against children - pretty unfair, isn't it?), but it fits the thesis - ergo, the thesis is invalid.

      Me: All sports are unfair. You: Here’s an example of unfairness. I proved you wrong!

      Ok let's try it again: do you propose, that since all there is to sports, is unfairness; then we SHOULD abolish categorizations, based on (valid, non-arbitrary) group distinctions? That seems to be your stand, but I don't want to misrepresent your position.

      Why would I care either way what sports leagues do? The market will sort it out.

          No particular reason why, other than having a coherent, logically valid and empirically sound stance on it (that's all optional, I admit. But since you mentioned it in your periscopes few times, I assumed it might be of some importance to you, and I saw some holes in it)

          ...and (beating a dead horse for the last time, I promise) - just let me point out, that every time I try to pin your position on categorizing separately adult males and children sports, you disengage. Might be the medium or my fault at persuasion, but might be cogn dissonance
