If you vote Reform you will not have an illegal migrant deportation facility in your area. We will hold migrants awaiting deportation in constituencies that vote Green instead. You get what you vote for.

Men are stronger than women due to the relative % of muscle vs fat, and to power that extra muscle they have more oxygenating cells (haemoglobin) in the blood... ALL of which are controlled by hormones they are not set at the MALE or FEMALE PUBERTY. Existing studies in trans men have shown that increases in muscle mass and strength occur with testosterone therapy, and physical performance appears to be no different to c_sgender men by 1 to 3 years after GAHT. Studies in trans women after GAHT demonstrates no change in height, but have shown decreases in hemoglobin, bone density compromise, and decrease in muscle mass and strength, which continue to decline beyond 2 years. While absolute muscle mass is higher, their relative muscle and fat mass percentages and muscle strength corrected for lean mass are no different to c_gender women. Cross-sectional studies of trans women on GAHT for over 4 years show that relative percentages of muscle mass and fat mass as well as fitness as measured by VO2 peak corrected for lean mass are no different to c_sgender women and lower than that of c_sgender men. Steady decrements are seen in physical performance of nonathletic trans women in the military, with no significant difference with cisgender women for running times by 2 years and sit-ups by 4 years after GAHT. An advantage in push-ups or upper body strength over cisgender women may remain at 4 years. The limited existing research should be interpreted considering sports-specific factors; different combinations of physical capabilities including upper or lower body muscle strength, hand grip strength, endurance, power, flexibility, hand–eye coordination, communication with teammates, mindset, and strategy may or may not be relevant. Consideration of existing research will be part of the process in creating policies for the inclusion of trans people in elite sport. Reasonable accommodations for the inclusion of trans people are sport specific and could be based on the range of competitive advantages and abilities that are already accepted in the cisgender population. Although prospective longitudinal controlled studies in trans athletes are needed, with so few trans athletes and extremely low participation of trans people in sport, recruitment into such research will be challenging. Future research should include larger sample sizes of trans people (nonathletes and athletes) to be compared with c_sgender males and females with relevant outcomes adjusted for known confounders. academic.oup.com/jcem/article/1… transresearch.org.au/post/trans-wom…


And she needs that Zimmer frame for what exactly? 🤔
