I mean yeah it should just like almost any sport, the differences in strength and endurance between men and women do play a role. Women fought hard for this.
Which is also why trans women should compete in the women's category, because they are women and have the hormonal profile of a women, given the rules around trans athletes and HRT.
There are plenty of current and former women's professional athletes who recognize that it's important to have women's sports AND that they should include trans women; Sue Bird, Megan Rapinoe, Commander_Data, to name a few.
Depends on the type of sport, tbh I think we should have both gender categories as well as mixed. My response to you though (joking as it was) was that you first started out similar to how chuds try to make some "biological imperative" to discredit gender identity and trans athletes.
I already answered you, the response is "that shit be complicated cuss I feel we should have both gender gated sports and gender inclusive sports, also trans athletes should have their gender identity respected".
edit: oh shit just realized you aren't the original OP, sorry comrade.
Yes it should. Other wise women aren't getting placed any where near the top.
Surf style wise men and women surfing at the pro level looks different. There stances are different.
Men can out paddle women and can pop up faster due to upper body strength.
Either way Bethany doesn't even compete in the wsl. And the wsl pro ranks are impossible to enter due to the points system favoring purple that are already pros.
All of that and like she's 33. Besides Kelly Slater and Pancho Sullivan, many people aren't competitive enough to stay on tour. The sport is a young person's competitive sport and usually pros go into wave hunting around this time. Hawaiian women surfer's at 18-25 years are a dime a dozen. If I lived on the island I would be more interested but I don't :shrug-outta-hecks:. All I know is she's trying to get the he>i crowd to pay for more of her expeditions as her star power is done for. Yeah she's a weird fundy homeschooled child but this is just the old reactionary cash grab.

You had me in the first half comrade.

Do you think that physically men and women can compete at the same level?

This is the first question I've asked you.

sunset pro was on today. still trying to catch up on it.
I've always thought tossing out gender discrimination and grouping people by performance class would be the better way to go
We already fucking do this for boxing with just men, organizing them by weight
