The quote below is copied from a post on the OT board a few years ago. The point is two-fold. First the story about the evolution of the transgender athletes and how all the protests just died away.

The second is that even for an issue as contentious as this apparently is, there can be intelligent discussion over on the OT board on such issues without personal attacks. Come on over, the water's fine. :)

"I have a cousin in Connecticut who was a remarkably successful track and XC coach over his 35 years in that role. Now retired, he serves on an advisory council for HS track there. Some 15 years ago a couple of trans athletes were noticed as they were winning local events as 13-14 year olds, and controversy naturally ensued. As they grew older and the hormone regimen with which they were prescribed did its work, their times began falling off to where  as HS seniors they were just average athletes. Neither girl landed a scholarship and they moved off the sports pages and on with their lives. Today very few remember them or the controversy."
