Do trans athletes have an advantage in sport? ⚧️ Doctor & Transgender Weightlifter Explain

This was a bit of a sensitive topic: We're fortunate to have the opinion of a transgender friend of mine to discuss his experience on testosterone, and thoughts on fairness in men & women's sport.

I may have misstepped in some of these comments: My goal is not to offend, but to outline the positions on both sides of the argument: the right for cisgender women to compete in a competitive sporting environment that is protected from male advantage, as well as the right to inclusion of transgender athletes. I'm keen to hear your thoughts below:

0:00 - Intro & Warning 2:50 - The gender performance gap - 6:50 - Role of hormones 8:40 - Rules: Transgender sport 9:20 - HRT/TRT & performance 15:10 - Effects of transitioning: 16:00 Is it fair?
