Maya Forstater: Woman wins tribunal appeal over transgender tweet

Is that right aye? Let's take this one point by point then.

• How would you feel if your vulnerable female relative was forced to share her prison cell with a fully intact biological male? And when the door was locked she was truly alone?
  I'd have more issue with a vulnerable person being forced to share a prison cell with anyone if they have requirements to the contrary. Men aren't the only dangerous people in prison, I'm sure you know that but sure throw in your "biologically intact male" ****e as you see fit.
  How did it work out for those female prisoners who were going to be sharing with the convicted rapist that suddenly saw themselves as female.
  
• How would you feel if your daughters athletic scholarship was robbed off her by a beta-male who calls himself female?
  My daughter plays mixed gender football and is better than a lot of the boys. As for allowing transgender competition in your example. I'm undecided as there ihasn't been enough research on the subject. I certainly don't support the "men are naturally stronger and better than women at sport" talking point but I am open to correction through scientific study.

Well then you don't know a lot about sport, and even less about anatomy and most especially physiology.
On average men/males are physically stronger than women/females, it is not even open for debate.
And a lot of that has to do with development through puberty.
Only the disingenuous and those of a certain mindset ever argue that a transwoman who has gone through male puberty is no different to a biological woman.

There is a reason the men's 100m record is faster then the womens 100m.
There is a reason no female golfer is competing in the mens tour.
There is reason no female is playing mens rugby.
etc, etc, etc.

Notice I never once mentioned skill.
That is a different discussion entirely.
Skill is not determined by sex.

Also if your daughter is playing mixed gender football then there is a very good chance she is at most in her teens and one can readily see girls up to teenage years that are often physically bigger than boys of a similar age.
In fact my sons team were trounced by girls team that were just a year older.
The girls were bigger and more developed.

But by the time she reaches adulthood the guys will have developed a lot more physically.
Of course there will always be outliers who will be naturally bigger or smaller than the norm.
