Permitting trans men to women to compete against ciswomen will end the competition.
Maybe the ciswomen will form their own group.

quote:
The “bone density” red herring has been thrown out there for years, at least since MMA fighter Fallon Fox appeared on the scene. The bone density of black women is, on average, significantly higher than that of white women. In fact, some studies have shown the bone strength of black women to be higher than that of white men.

Yet we don’t see any great rush to divide lifting categories by race, proving this bone-density argument to be nothing but a canard designed to specifically target trans athletes.

Would like to hear a rationale, but Hunt did not respond.
