    The effects of increased testosterone last a long time, even if it’s being blocked. And how exactly are testosterone levels being monitored? When? When, if ever, do the athletic advantages of male puberty and testosterone wear off?

    People have reasonable and legitimate concerns beyond accusations of transphobia. Sweeping those concerns under the rug and acting like they are unfounded will earn the trans community little support.

      So you’re threatening your support of the trans community based on whether or not people agree with your sports opinions. Or, at least you’re implying it’s legitimate that people would do so. L take. Transphobic vibes.

        Not agree, but willing to at least engage in a good faith discussion of issues rather than resorting to accusations of transphobia.

          This is not a good faith discussion on your part and the fact that you don’t realize that is why I’m calling you transphobic.

              A good faith discussion starts with someone not being transphobic, and someone not tone-policing trans people for being concerned about the rampant transphobia on this post

        Anyone who disagrees with me is transphobic! It’s obviously not possible for me to be wrong!
