Agree totally on the false information. In this case the medial evidence relating to this
athlete may be sound. I don't know the details of her back story. Did she transition and take hormone therapy before she went through puberty which as a layman sounds like she then may not have any great advantage over other female athletes. But that isn't the case in all situations.
The original thread yesterday was about Lia Thomas. She went through puberty as a man, trained for many years as a male swimmer and then in the last few years transitioned. That to me is a different situation. She has already developed a greater physique, lung capacity, muscle definition etc. which seems by the races she is now winning to give her an advantage.
Silly example I know, but if Tyson Fury was to decide to transition, take 3 years of hormone therapy, lower his testosterone to an acceptable level, would it then be fair to put her in a ring with female boxers.
I believe the main point here is that sports governing bodies are struggling to put in place the required rules to create a level playing field. Until that happens fingers unfortunately are always going to be pointed at these trans athletes.
