the part that gets me the most about the "fairness in women's sports" stuff is that it assumes women are inherently inferior to men. okay so you're just misogynistic got it, let's move on to something that actually matters

The gender segregation is especially nonsensical for things like chess for example -

@raccoon@hollow.raccoon.quest you are wrong in saying that, yes. because sports are a lot more complicated than single metrics, and elite athletes are - shockingly - not average people.
the purpose of gender segregation in sports is not to protect women, it is to protect men from having to suffer the emotional suffering of losing to a woman. and in sports where physical characteristics like that do matter, like wrestling for example, we already have a solution for that; which is things like weight classes. take the physical characteristic that actually matters and divide people based upon that! easy. -

Biologically speaking, am I wrong in saying that, onnaverage, cis men have a higher max strength potential than cis women?
Like sure, I'm not strong and there's women who workout who could carry me like a shopping bag and beat me at arm wrestling any day, but again, speaking of average here. -
