I am very clear what a wedge issue is. I'm asking because many people believe there's an innate difference in athletic ability between people born men or women. I have no idea if that's true, and I honestly don't know where I stand on it because I don't know, so I was simply curious.

Mr. B, it's good that you seem willing to learn about things in good faith. But sometimes we need to search for answers on our own rather than asking for an education from people who are already under tremendous strain and dealing with bad faith actors from all sides. Does that make sense?

In general, yes. but I simply made the error of thinking "it's just sports". I've always been a defender and advocate for the trans community, I just didn't understand this one issue.
