Holy shit this gave me info I did not previously have. So if you're a woman with unusually high testosterone you're at about 2.7nm/L but the rules for trans women is that you have to be under 10?!?! That's a huge difference between rare levels found in females and what's just blindly accepted coming in as trans.

Not only that but this article suggests that even with hormone suppression, any muscle advantages and bone structure will essentially stay in place. (It is my uneducated guess here that if the trans person has gone through puberty as a male then the advantages will be there.)

This is some crazy shit.

I got permabanned from a sub on Reddit for pointing this out. I'm going to laugh when women's sports are dead in 5-10 years

This kind of nonsense might actually help put identity politics back in its box. Normal people can see these are men out there, beating women and even physically hurting them. Combined with the push to troon children or overtly sexual use them, we may finally see a big enough backlash. The recent BLM riots will also help if people begin to see the threads common to BLM, LGBT, and feminism.
