But in my view, trans women have higher probability to be stronger than most cis female athletes. I
Given this belief, is there a reason trans women have never taken Olympic medals despite having nearly 20 years to do so? That would seem to be evidence against that perspective. If any trans women are more capable at sport than cis women shouldn’t at least one have been world class?
Theres a trans female weightlifter Laurel Hubbard who made it to the Olympics in 2020. Passed every Olympic requirement for trans women to compete. Big hubbub about biological advantage and all that from the critics. She was in the competition one would most expect dominance from someone assigned male at birth. She had three lifts. She failed three lifts. Placed last in her group. So much for that.
Really very view, I think it’s only in the last few years that any have qualified. Which, again, is a pretty solid argument against, “Trans women are driving cis women out of sport!”.

Yup. Quietly dismissed by so-called “skeptics” tho
How many trans women compete in olympic sports in women’s categories? Genuine question.
