    When it comes to most women's sports, I'm in agreement that biological men should not be allowed to compete. Non-discrimination in hiring and promotion, housing, and numerous other areas are one thing, but sports where a male-at-birth individual has an obvious advantage are another.

    That said, if physical strength is such an important factor in skateboarding, how did the second, third and fifth place winners - who, although it's difficult to say for sure from the photos provided, appear to be pretty small (and the fifth place winner actually looks very small) - score as high as they did? And as the age factor appears to be another thing the media is ensuring is in the headlines, the fourth place winner is only a year younger.

    Tres was born Richard Batres and before she began taking hormones - which she says is the 'extent of her transition'

    It can shave, grow its hair, put on makeup, pluck its eyebrows etc but this is a MAN competing against kids! End of/

    It's not just strength. Men have better reactions, on average. It's not enough to make us better drivers but in sports it matters

    Not that I am qualified but if I was I'd diagnose him/her with attention whorism.

    Men have "better reactions"? I question whether that is true. I have heard, in various contexts, the exact opposite.

    OK, I mean it's something I learned and thought was true, I don't currently have a source. But if true shouldn't woman dominate activities like car racing? Maybe it's a slow twich fast twitch thing but the best men in world at sports seem to have more going for them than brute strength

    Actually it appears to be something of a debate but it may now be settled
