    So your goalpost is a world record? No trans, non-binary, etc. individual I can find has set a world record in any sport.

    Yeah? No shit they haven’t, born men aren’t allowed to compete against women. I recon there are thousands of athletes that could decide to transition to female and beat the world records for women.

      They are though, just going through the last 2 Olympics the list of openly trans individuals: Laurel Hubbard, Chelsea Wolfe, Quinn, Ness Murby, Nikki Hiltz, Raven Saunders.

      You can look these things up, stop being a willfully ignorant bigot.

        Laurel Hubbard was an average to poor male athlete that couldn’t qualify in mens competition that decided to change and won silver immediately.

        Even if I don’t think she actually did transition to win at sports, the result is the same.

        Thank you for making my point for me.

          She competed in the 2021 Olympics but did not finish. Same as Chris Mossier who you so casually dismissed as a counterexample.

          She did win silver in the 2017 World Weightlifting Championships. You do notice how you moved the goalposts we previously established in order to get the answer you desired?

          You are continuing to be willfully, and now maliciously, ignorant.
