Thoughts? Should transwomen be allowed to compete in women's events?

Honestly no. The same reason that a non trans man with the same body can't compete with women still exists. That body was developed by male hormones and **** and would be much the same as allowing someone on steroids to compete.

We should have unregulated competition imo.

The best of the best.

If guys want to inject themselves with hormones and speed that's up to them.

It would make spectator sports more spectacular.

Not like it's not already happening anyway. It is. May as well be open about it.

Run 'natural' competitions alongside if necessary.

Maybe so but damn I’ve always thought of London as a place with all the live music where you didn’t have to worry too much about getting jacked walking home.

Maybe the crime will bring the rent down. Getting mugged once every few years is better than getting mugged every month.

It's been a while since New York was in the top spot.

It can happen, it depends where you are. London is a city of extremes. Some of the most expensive and luxurious places in the world to live, and some very deprived and violent places.
