What if you didn’t have gendered events, and let the women compete with the men?
Surely, they would be at least competitive in some sports, right? Gymnastics, equestrian, shooting, archery…there have to be plenty of sports where women can actually compete against men.
Not a fan of animated visuals.
Turning point? Seems like it has turned. Isn’t 50/50 the goal?
Every men’s division should just be renamed the “open” and then the whole trans athlete debacle would be solved once and for all.
“No, we don’t have a men and women’s division. We have a biological female division and an open. Got XX chromosomes? Pick whichever division you like. No? Great, welcome to the open.”
Easy, done.
Do you think the Olympics will continue this trend and be majority women? (Sort of like higher education?)
