Anyone else care to review these statements? I cannot find the article other than on pubmed, and he has not cited his sources.
It is one thing to say "loads of studies" but which ones?

I could pay twenty five bucks on pub med, but if this was published in a peer reviewed journal I should be able to access it there. Right?

No linky?
And I find it strange that the author himself said of effects on the cisgender athelete Caster Semenya

"was not strong enough to warrant the potential health implications that taking hormone suppressers could cause."

And casually ignore these "health implications" when...
...looking at transgender women who had taken said hormone suppressants.

Seems rather biased doesn't it?

What harmful effects and how would they affect performance?

And where did you get that information.
Let's see the numbers and the studies. Let's review this.
So we are looking at transgender women who have "been through male puberty" right?

Okay what about transgender athletes who haven't thanks to puberty blockers?

Surely if the argument is about differences in puberty, then puberty blocked trans athletes should be allowed, right?
Great. So let us look at those stats. What is our sample size? How many transgender women athletes with and without male puberty are in the data being analysed?

How many are there? Hmm?

The third Star Wars trilogy could have all been about sliding back into the forgotten past.

It could have focused on a peaceful, free galaxy where the foolish- the First Order of Palpatine bring back the Sith via cloning.
The arc would have been about the rise of fascism through glorification and white washing of the past.

With the Sith gone, Luke allows the Jedi powers to fade by hiding their secrets.

Kylo is trying to learn them. Along the way, he falls to the dark side. He continues...
...his worship of his grandfather by seeking to recreate the jedi. Instead he makes the sith.

Thrown out of balance, new Jedi rise in strength. Rey, Finn, Rose.

Without guidance or records of the past, they are doomed to fall to the dark side. Knowledge, education...

Joking about backrooms and Mandela effects aside, I am not into conspiracy theories. The biggest conspiracy we have isn't hidden, you just need to look at the haves and the have nots to see it.

The pyramid is all around you- it is society.
What is a country if not a pyramid scheme?
It really isn't rocket science. Exploiting people gives you power and earns you money.
Borders exist to separate the pyramids.

The term "Sweet F A" in English has a dark history that you probably didn't know.
Nowadays we usually think it stands for "Sweet Fuck All" but it originally comes from "Sweet Fanny Adams".

The term was used by sailors to refer to their tinned meat rations being insubstantial.
However, and this has all manner of content warnings slapped on...
Fanny Adams was a real 8 year old child murdered in England.

Her body was dismembered by her killer, and the parts had to be found and gathered up in a box. It was huge news at the time.

So... yeah, that is where the "sweet F A" actually comes from. A sick joke by the navy.

You realise if the Queen dies, we cease to be New Elizabethans and become New Carolines.

No, I am serious.

An era under a King Charles is a Caroline era.
Carolus is latin for Charles.
As I am a "King" technically I am always in the Delaney Era. Just saying.

This is a common misconception.

These stats are for someone whose tissues are influenced by "male range" testosterone levels.

HRT used for transgender women causes the muscles to atrophy as cells are replaced. Muscle mass is greatly reduced and it becomes...
...a vastly different body.

Likewise, testosterone in trans masc people ups their ability to form muscle, pushing them out of the "womens" range into the "mens".

I was a martial artist before transition, and I grew up on a farm. I was pretty solid.

Now I cannot open jam jars.
Saying "biological men" shouldn't compete in womens sports is a very true statement. They shouldn't, because they have testosterone advantage.

Intersex and transgender women on HRT are not biological men- and that is true on a cellular level.

The proteins formed...
