Dear Stephanie White,
Since you said you weren't "educated enough from a scientific standpoint" to say whether men should compete in women's sports or not, let me "educate" you.
- Males have significantly more lean muscle mass.
- On average, men have 30-40% more upper-body strength.
- After puberty, men have up to 20x more testosterone, which leads to greater muscle development, higher power output, & faster strength gains.
- Males have higher bone density, wider shoulders, & typically longer reach.
- Men produce more fast-twitch muscle fibers, which helps with explosive movements
- Males generally have larger hearts & lungs, contributing to higher aerobic capacity.
- Men have, on average, a 10–12% higher hemoglobin concentration, allowing the blood to carry more oxygen during exercise, which is why WNBA games & seasons are shorter than the NBA
- Males typically have a 15–20% higher VO₂ max than similarly trained females, improving endurance performance.
- Men have larger & stronger tendons & ligaments, allowing them to tolerate higher force production.
- Males typically possess larger skeletal frames, including bigger hands and feet, which can improve leverage & force generation in sports.
- Men generally recover quicker between maximal power efforts because of greater absolute muscle mass & anaerobic power.
Now you have no excuse to not say "men don't belong in women's sports," I'm looking forward to you standing with Sophie Cunningham on this issue 🤝
If anything ever happens to me, I want it to be known that the single most important piece of legislation I want codified is the SAVE America Act:
Require proof of citizenship + photo ID to vote.
Heading up to two million. I’m not sure I’ve had a post viewed this many times. Especially a whole speech having a pop at those who seek to shut free speech down with blasphemy laws.
Without free speech you are not free.
Protect it.
Do not be silent.
