New study finds no clear physical advantage for transgender women over cisgender women in sports.

A major review challenges the claim that transgender women hold a clear physical edge in women’s sports.

After pooling results from 52 studies and thousands of participants, researchers in Brazil reported that transgender women had greater lean mass than cisgender women, but not greater physical capacity.

Across the data they examined, they found no meaningful differences in upper-body strength, lower-body strength, or aerobic fitness between the two groups after hormone therapy.

That does not settle the political fight. It does, however, narrow the scientific one.

The paper, published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, reviewed research on body composition and physical fitness in transgender people receiving gender-affirming hormone therapy. In their analysis, they covered 6,099 individuals overall. This included 2,566 transgender women, 2,646 transgender men, 442 cisgender women and 445 cisgender men. Forty-two studies were included in the meta-analysis.

Transgender women, the central result was striking in its contrast. Lean mass remained higher than in cisgender women, yet the performance measures most often cited in sports arguments did not show an advantage.

“This refutes the logic behind blanket bans on transgender women in sports,” said Bruno Gualano, a physician and researcher at the University of São Paulo in Brazil who co-authored the study. “Most of these policies are based on the assumption that transgender women retain inherent physical advantages and would therefore dominate women’s competitions. The data does not support this idea.”

The review found that transgender women had higher absolute lean mass than cisgender women, but similar relative lean mass.

It found no significant differences in upper-body strength, lower-body strength, or maximum oxygen consumption, a standard measure of cardiorespiratory fitness.

The authors also looked at how hormone therapy changed the body over time. In transgender women, one year of therapy was associated with increased fat mass, reduced lean mass, and lower upper-body strength. Over one to three years, the pattern pointed in the same direction, though not every measure could be tracked across every time span.

The paper argues that this matters because sports rules often treat muscle mass as a stand-in for performance. The new review suggests that assumption may be too simple.

✨ @hasanthehun discusses his frustration with the way people maliciously use Black people as a talking point: "Nobody ever gives a shit about what Black people care about; they just only talk about Black people when there's a goddamn election happening and they can just say, 'our guys are backed by Black folks and therefore, if you actually want to give everybody healthcare, then you're anti-Black.' Please, start caring about Black issues. Stop just only remembering that Black people exist when you can use Black people as a talking point. It's so fucking cynical, dude. It is crazy. And it's almost always white people doing it, too."

Veilguard's writing was hindered by CEO interference. Veilguard felt like HR was micromanaging the entire project. EA's unreasonable demands of Bioware gutted the project and the team. EA turned DA into discount Avengers.

I want it to get through every white person’s thick heads that the white oppressors sign wasn’t for “farming discourse.”

It was because the only black speaker at the event got turned down for wanting to speak out her experience being disproportionately affected by transphobia.🫩

[Very Awesome, Normal Person. @loveandlightok]

to be quite frank he is 100% correct. the way people flippantly use “israeli” to describe things they don’t like is not only irresponsible but blatantly disrespectful to those who are directly affected by the wrongdoings of the regime

IM TIRED OF SEEING DISCOURSE ONLINE THAT IS FUNDAMENTALLY INCORRECT ABOUT MY BELIEFS AND POLITICAL VIEWS SO NOW IM ADDRESSING IT.

Things i support 👍
———
A FREE and INDEPENDENT Palestine
LGBTQ+ RIGHTS
Human ARTISTS in all disciplines
The Environment
Women’s RIGHTS
EQUALITY

Things i don’t support 🚫
———
Racism
Unregulated Generative AI
Israeli Government
ICE
Cyber Bullying
War
ANY form of Hate

I need my real ones to know where I stand, once and for all:

As some of you know, throughout my career I have vocally, publicly stood up for, and financially supported a few of the causes and groups that I’m passionate about. These have included the rights for a free and independent Palestinian state; the LGBTQ+ community and its rights and more.

I have put my money where my mouth is all the time and I have rejected highly remunerative brand deals with companies with who did not align with my values.

RE: the use of the term “Israeli” people use to comment on anything they don’t like. All it does is really shows your ignorance. When you use that word, and blame an entire people, it delegitimizes the cause and normalizes the actions of a genocidal state, without mentioning how it fuels antisemitism. There are tons of examples of Israelis who oppose the occupation, and will continue to oppose until things change.

Spread love and positivity ❤️

Norm Finkelstein discussing the alleged sexual violence committed on October 7 by Hamas: "I hope your viewers hear this. There is not one single frame of Hamas committing rape or sexual violence. Bear in mind, there's not only just an absence of any digital evidence which would take SEVEN months to go through. Of all the various technological paraphernalia; CCTV, traffic cameras, body cam, dash cam, GoPro. Not one of rape. Not one of sexual violence. Not one frame."
