So the moral of this story is, even the worst of men can dominate the best of women.

Why would the left want this to be known...why start this in the first place? It's a bit self defeating.

The TERFs on the left are splitting as the left's communist progressive policies no longer directly benefit them. They will be on the right soon, co-opting and turning it into a feminist platform.

It's all just about naked self-interest and power.

The belief that women are somehow a naturally weaker gender is a deeply ingrained socially constructed myth, which of course is completely false.

I miss LGB drop the T, that group was fun to be in, watching L's quickly realize they've outmanuvered themselves.

"Gabrielle" Ludwig aged 50, led "her" college team in scoring with 17 points a game and led the state in rebounding

I'm not a sports expert, so maybe someone can tell me how they think a 50 yr old Michael Jordan (literally the greatest of all time) would do in NCAA basketball? I'm guessing even if he could hang he wouldn't lead his team, let alone the state, in anything. And I'm guessing a 50 yr old average-level NBA player would get trounced by the 20 yr olds.

A 50 yr old man who wasn't a pro athlete would be laughed out of tryouts for the men's team.

This is just proof that they didn't feel right in men's bodies. Now that they're in the right body, they're free to excel... Even if it is the same body and it's more of a social transition.

That thread went on a lot longer than I expected. This is much more pervasive problem than I'd been led to believe.

The stories where a person takes up a sport after he transitions don't really do anything for his point since we don't know how good an athlete he was before. In those cases, we'd have to find a pattern of transgender male athletes clustered at the top ranks of their collective sports.

It is literally said in the thread "how good an athlete he was before".

And some weren't even athletes at all before transitioning in their 30s, 40s, or even 50s, then winning everything.

Yes, but that's not the cases in every story. I'd give an example, but it looks like the Trust and Safety Council found out about the thread.

Or we could point out that there are precisely zero FtM transgender athletes competing in men's sports.
