The data in Tables 1 & 2 show that pre-T suppression trans women cannot be compared to cis men (while closer to cis men for height, weight is lower & seemingly closer to cis women’s) Also trans women have bone density lower than natal males, natal females. @RogerPielkeJr

Research finds trans women have bone density lower than natal males, natal females, and FtMs, as a group, BEFORE hormone therapy even begins (sample=711, FAR larger than any of the studies Hilton uses)

Male and female muscle is the same strength when comparing equivalent cross section/size (Costill et al., 1976; Schantz et al., 1983). Something never considered by Hilton et al.

q

Tucker, Hilton etc cite Q angle, lung size, bone density & height in XX women – confer a performance advantage for XY trans women, but there is NO support in the literature that these factors confer any such advantage

There is ZERO substantial research evidence of any biological advantages that would IMPEDE the fairness of trans women competing in any women’s sport not even Q angle, lung size, bone density & height, muscle mass, strength, endurance or T levels!
