Didn't a boys HS soccer team beat the women's national team a few years ago?
Easily, actually.
A hungover guy beat the Williams sisters in a tennis match.

There is also limited scientific evidence that a bacon cheeseburger taste fricking awesome.

Also from NPR. There's limited scientific evidence that water is wet.

So why do athletes take androgenic steroids?
Why do female athletes who identify as male almost always insist on competing in the women's division?
Why is FloJo's world record slower than the men's high school record in some states?

So group that said something about follow the science and stuff like that.
What a waste of money.

While I agree trans women shouldn't be allowed to compete against cisgender women, what NPR is saying is factually correct. They also say not much scientific research has been done on the subject so to establish a scientific basis for banning trans athletes, there needs to be more research done.
As for funding of NPR, only 2% of their money comes from the government. Reagan defunded them long ago.

This assertion is asinine.

Men's 100m world record time is 9.58 seconds from Bolt. Women's 100m world record is 10.49 seconds from Flo-Jo.
And flo Jo's record has stood for nearly 35 years
But broken by dozens of HS boys each year

LoL... I'm calling bullshite. I'm not a research scientist, but I have to believe there are numerous studies which describe the difference between male and female muscle and ligament strength, endurance, fast twitch muscles, etc.

Beat them 5-2, If we are talking the same squad. It was the FC Dallas under 15 team. I mean probably some pretty talented boys but still all under the age of 15. Oof.

i mean what do they mean by "limited scientific evidence"?? Thousands of years of human history?
I used to listen to some NPR about a decade ago but kinda fell off. I picked some back up recently just to see what's been going on....and yeah...they are definitely much more left leaning now than even 10 years ago.

We had the girls state powerlifting heavy weight champ when I was in school. She would occasionally work out with the football team. She rotated with the smallest group of sophomore scrubs.

You have eyes and a brain. No research needed. Just look at every record in every sport.

I’d say I can now fulfill my dream of play for LSU in basketball… final four or bust!
