Great, so we should take advantage of the fact that we have major and minor leagues and separate by ability into those. If it happens to separate by gender, so be it, but if someone is higher or lower than the average for their gender then they can compete among other people on their level.

The fact that we separate by gender in spite of how, as this thread points out, there is a large amount of variability within that category that goes against the idea that this addresses the ability gap, just shows that we’re not separating for that reason, we’re separating for sexual discrimination.

I’ve always thought it was strange that we separated some sports by gender, and I still do. Especially because plenty of sports don’t separate by gender, and there’s no issue.

If someone has ADHD and takes medication - as directed - to help them focus on their training regiment, would that make you as upset? It’s certainly a drug to “alter,” as you say.

The pledges mean nothing; Trump uses words as nothing more than a way to get people to do what he wants. To him, speaking truthfully is as foreign and unnecessary as speaking backwards.
