    I went through the numbers to highlight her performance is on par with the rest of her team, and you still think that I’m being unreasonable

    As I said, you presented your position quite clearly, which is why I called you out

      I don’t think you’re unreasonable, you have more context than myself and any other casual North American sports fan who (shockingly!) hasn’t learned the points per game rates of Aussie rules footie. BUT, for most who have a casual understanding of sports, seeing someone a foot taller than their competition makes us go “huh, that seems wild.”

      As we do when reading one of the most reputable papers in the world raising concerns about transgender health science methodology.

      (For what it’s worth, in my personal experience of playing mid level co-ed rec league sports in a large liberal city for awhile, I’ve played against a few teams, mostly their trans player was the best woman on their team and by not a small margin. We don’t give a shit because, like I said, mid level co-ed rec league sports.)

      The fact you feel compelled to “call out” someone trying to sincerely answer a reasonable question kinda speaks volumes.

        someone trying to sincerely answer a reasonable question

        Yeah, that’s why you linked to transphobic hit pieces and described trans women in sports with hugely emotionally loaded terms

        Because you’re reasonable

        As I said from the beginning, your comment was fine unti you let some of your more transphobic opinions out in the final paragraph. That paragraph was not “reasonable”

          If you’re at the point where you’re calling articles in ond of the most reputable papers on Earth “transphobic hit pieces”, you need go re-evaluate.

          Edit: there’s a reason trump always screams about the crooked media for their crime of factual reporting.
