This is the context that republicans completely ignore. .002% of college athletes are trans. That’s barely even a rounding error.
Isn't that the point though, that it affects the 99%?
If half are in each division, and if a few athletes out of 250,000 all perform in the top 1% or better because they switched to a protected division displacing 99%+ who don't have arguable eligibility for that protected division...
I don't know if that's the statistic, but isn't that the general concept? That it's unfair to a huge number of other athletes that lose?
That makes the assumption that trans athletes consistently outperform cis athletes, which there isn't evidence of. A trans person winning something does not mean all trans people will always have an advantage, which is the assumption conservatives make. What place does a trans person need to place for it to be okay? Are trans people ever allowed to win? Any time a trans person places above any cis person, it's used as evidence of unfairness, even though that makes no sense.
