00:00:00.000 um so what are you guys's opinions on trans people playing in sports of the opposite or like

00:00:07.560 trans women playing in women's sports go ahead i feel like it's something that cannot be 1.00

00:00:16.000 generalized i feel like every sport is different every um yeah every sport has a different skill

00:00:25.960 set every sport has different levels of contact um different different aspects that you need

00:00:32.440 that could either benefit or not be benefited by the use of like hormones so i think i think

00:00:40.060 personally it's it's something yeah it's something that can't be generalized and it's something that

00:00:44.520 has to be seen as like a sort of like subject by subject situation or matter okay would you what

00:00:51.040 about for volleyball that was the example i used volleyball see i mean it depends on how much

00:00:57.820 depth you want to go into i mean i don't know volleyball to a certain extent i can imagine

00:01:01.760 that you know if if for example you've got um someone who is female to male and they're taking

00:01:08.280 testosterone and they're playing with um like cis women you could you could complete you could 1.00

00:01:14.180 comment on the fact that testosterone allows like um like muscle muscle build quicker or like you know

00:01:20.860 therefore they might get like a harder a harder spike for example but then i know some insanely

00:01:26.780 strong cis women so does that really take things like into another dimension in the game i don't know 1.00

00:01:33.480 to be honest so i don't think there's been enough research or enough um yeah i don't i don't think

00:01:42.240 there's been enough of a look into it okay so for the time being what do you think they should do

00:01:46.300 should we integrate or should we keep them separate well as far as volleyball goes yeah

00:01:50.420 volleyball's women's and men's sports in general again i can't i can't say okay you don't know your

00:01:56.080 answer could be i don't know yeah it can't be generalized in my idea in my opinion okay go ahead

00:02:00.560 you're okay well the problem is i can talk a lot and i don't want to like drown these guys out but i can

00:02:05.540 go now if you want yeah should i let the others speak i don't know because i can talk for a lot

00:02:10.980 it's up to you you know either go or don't go so i almost have a similar opinion to you it does

00:02:18.820 depend on the sport and the governing body um but there are a number of things that i would do

00:02:23.280 probably differently because testosterone isn't the only thing we should be taking into account

00:02:28.140 depending on the sport especially because there are a number of differences between men and women

00:02:33.900 that aren't changed just by taking hormones um for example men have more type 2 muscle fibers and

00:02:42.280 women have more type 1 type 2 is more for bursts of strength and type 1 is for endurance so women are 1.00

00:02:49.900 better in endurance men are better at like running really fast so an obvious example of where i think

00:02:56.600 it may end up being unfair would maybe be with sprinting um but the longer the distance the running

00:03:03.160 the more fair it becomes um with volleyball volleyball is really difficult and i played a lot of team

00:03:10.080 sports when i was a kid not volleyball i played netball which is the girl bad version of basketball 0.95

00:03:15.720 and rounders which is the bad girl version of um baseball it's really english bad sports they kind of suck

00:03:26.620 i don't know why they make us do those but i will say so assuming we're talking like at school level

00:03:33.820 so like before anyone's really had time to transition or do much i played with boys in rounders and it was

00:03:41.120 not fun they hit the ball for like 10 times further and then i'm out there in like the depth of field 0.92

00:03:46.820 running after the damn balls for like most of the game so i will say like there are issues with it um 0.87

00:03:53.680 it kind of depends on what level which game and how you're integrating people um i am an advocate 0.98

00:03:59.620 for not throwing the baby out with the bath water so i think it can work but i don't know if it's

00:04:05.100 working right now okay yeah what do you think yeah i mean i think that they should just be able to play

00:04:13.560 to be honest i mean even with people who are born a certain way there's people that are better at

00:04:20.420 doing things than others that's just how it goes i mean i understand that uh mainly for men who

00:04:27.580 transition into women i think i understand what they're saying sometimes for example you know

00:04:34.620 if it was to say like boxing you know um a person who was born a man and then transition into a woman

00:04:42.320 maybe later on in life fully developed into puberty and then decides to get into a ring with a woman

00:04:49.600 who was born a woman i think that might be a bit techie but i think the whole point of transitioning is

00:04:57.140 to be who you feel you are and if you've got an interest in if you have an interest and a passion

00:05:03.580 in sport i don't think you shouldn't be allowed to play that sport because you've decided to transition

00:05:10.300 i understand how it can be unfair with physically but it comes with it you know it comes with it i think

00:05:19.320 so i just think that what do you think because i just don't think it's fair um even if we just take

00:05:24.460 things like height like i'm in the top one percent of height for females and i was like short when it 1.00

00:05:29.500 came to getting recruited for colleges like if we brought men in there i'd be in the top 15 percent

00:05:34.080 and like i really wouldn't have any opportunity if men were you know even if it's like trans women 0.98

00:05:39.120 like after they transition the height stays the same yeah i think usually like for example with my

00:05:44.120 previous example with boxing there's usually like weight classes so with boxing it's probably like

00:05:49.760 yeah a little bit okay because you'd be matched fairly but um like you said about um running

00:05:56.760 i'm not too sure i don't know that information about um i think you said sorry what did you say

00:06:02.740 like sprinting t1 t2 you want it yeah twitch muscle fibers so men and women tend to have a different

00:06:09.020 percentage of both but why don't why do because why do men win in marathons then um so when i say

00:06:15.600 endurance i'm talking like ultra endurance is where men and women tend to be well they compete

00:06:20.780 together and women win often like it's about 50 50 who's winning but ultra that's like a very fringe 0.79

00:06:26.440 small it's not fringe but it is crazy because i mean when you're doing these types of ultra endurance

00:06:34.120 swimming there's a decent chance of death like somebody just died recently trying to swim the channel

00:06:39.560 crossing so it's not so much have you seen those people that go off of niagara falls

00:06:44.880 yeah i mean it's difficult that i think it's manhattan island swimming and british isle

00:06:53.200 right but my point is in general men are faster definitely faster so if you as i said sprinting that

00:06:59.580 counts for short distance well but even with marathons men are still faster i mean there might be like

00:07:05.100 a fringe ultra marathon but that's like ultra endurance is definitely longer than a regular

00:07:09.540 marathon yeah right but i'm saying more people compete in a marathon and you said it's still 50 50

00:07:14.120 for ultra and i just can't imagine that's that popular of a sport like it's very hard obviously a

00:07:20.500 lot of people don't want to do it because it's as difficult as it is clearly i could i did a marathon

00:07:25.340 it was the worst day of my life my mom was a long distance runner as well i have no chance 0.63

00:07:31.060 it's uh it's a tough one um but it just becomes so men would have the disadvantage because they don't

00:07:37.980 have the same muscle fibers as women so when they transition they don't have the advantage within that 1.00

00:07:42.860 endurance necessarily and assuming that there is some negative impact to certain things when they're

00:07:49.480 taking estrogen and some somewhat i think it's fine for endurance sports so what about what about

00:07:55.540 marathons you'd make it um so there are a number of sports there are some where i'm sure it's fine

00:08:03.120 there are some where i'm fairly sure it's not fine and then there's some in the middle where i think

00:08:08.160 we need more research done like i'm not going to say no or yes to the ones in the middle because um

00:08:13.680 yeah i'm not sure i do think that we need to study more less just reduction of testosterone

00:08:19.520 and more the other things that make men you know stronger in various ways like lung capacity and

00:08:26.820 height to a point so oh it's it's super important because i played basketball and volleyball it's

00:08:33.900 super important for volleyball and basketball it is super important but there's a bunch of sports

00:08:38.080 where height either doesn't matter or being shorter is actually beneficial so that's why i say it does

00:08:42.260 depend on sport but i think for the sports where height does matter it is important to

00:08:47.480 it might just be that we have to cap trans women like you can compete but only if you're under 1.00

00:08:54.300 the height of the tallest women that can compete right because then you're not like four or five 1.00

00:08:59.260 inches taller than they are or something it's it's it's hard and i and i can appreciate that you're

00:09:04.440 in a difficult position with that yeah but even if they're the same height it's like they're stronger

00:09:09.680 than us in general yeah because i was just team sports it's really difficult like like how many

00:09:16.340 people are there on a volleyball six six five for basketball yeah so it's like quite impactful if he

00:09:22.260 has yeah team sports are the thing that i have the least amount of um experience with too so i don't

00:09:29.280 want to speak well my my thing is like if we're going to title it women's sports and men's sports i think

00:09:34.020 it's like misleading if we go to a tournament expecting it to be women and there's there's trans

00:09:38.500 people there you know like because because then it's like i didn't agree to that like i agreed to

00:09:43.780 to play in the way like because that's why i was pissed off this weekend because it was like these

00:09:48.900 like one one of the teams would just set the trans trans woman every single time and it's like and one

00:09:54.580 other team had had four or five and i'm like i just don't think that's really yeah yeah it was philippines

00:10:00.180 in brazil it was called all nations so it's like from different philippines in brazil must just yeah

00:10:04.580 it must be big there so
