He lost his derailleur at the beginning (literally the first corner from what I've seen) of the third stage :(

Understanding the UCI's New Policies for Transgender Athletes
@b45her: you're citing a f oxford dictionary on the issue that's a medical condition, is treated by medical doctors has multiple scientific and medical studies about it. This discussion had been over before it even began. Cheers mate.

Understanding the UCI's New Policies for Transgender Athletes
@b45her: I never said anything about intersex people though, they have problems on their own and it is not my place to speak for them.
A mental state, as you call it, means neurological problems. Pretty sure a brain made of neurological tissue is a physical organ and is prone to diseases, malfunctioning and conditions on its own. One of them is transsexualism/gender dysphoria, which is literally a mismatch between the body and how your brain is wired up. It being in the brain and you not seeing it doesn't mean it is not physical, since neurons are involved.
I'm also not sure what you're trying to say. Are you suggesting that gender dysphoria is a mere mental state and thus not a real medical condition, that should be treated by psychotherapy?

Understanding the UCI's New Policies for Transgender Athletes
@b45her: ah yes, because every trans person is a part of a "trans community". Most of truly transsex people (not transgender, nonbinaries or whatever) treat their state as a medical condition (as it is) and once it is taken care of, they just go stealth, which means they are not out to the world and live their life as any other man or woman. This is literally the main goal of transitioning.
I've already stated it before, but I'll say it once more: if a person transitioned in their teens or earlier (socially in this case), there would be no way of finding that out without having access to sensitive data. Hell, maybe there's even more trans women on the WC circuit and we don't know that, but Kate with her being out became the unfortunate scapegoat.
I've been transitioning medically for 10+ years and have never been a part of a community and don't have a desire to be so. I actually despise the so-called trans communities and am against modern activism. I'm not ever outing myself to another trans person. Only my parents, immediate family, trans-care doctors, sexual partners and a bunch of trustworthy people from my childhood know about me. Not one "outsider" would ever find out and I have no obligation to disclose my status to anyone.
