This is what the rugby researchers do in order to dictate the narrative, why I question everything from any of their science team. How can players be able to give informed consent when rugby conspires with the @BJSM_BMJ to avoid criticism?
How did researchers and the BJSM, in a hurry to counter an editorial questioning ethics, make around a 100 changes to an already published paper, changing the research question, and the year of data collection changed from 2019/20 to 2018/19 (and the data remained the same).

This is the response when a question is asked to a 'gender critical scientist'. I guess they don't like being politely challenged or asked s simple question. I guess I'm not the echo chamber they want.

Oops. Once again it appears that those with gender critical viewpoints have misrepresented the actual facts - or indeed, made them up. This generates misplaced hate towards transgender, and indeed a worker who hasn't even been confirmed as transgender.

While there are some issues with this article, the basic understanding of SRY testing demonstrates a host of reasons why the World Athletics testing has issues.

World Athletics says its genetic test for women ensures ‘the integrity of women’s sport’ – but science does not support this overly simplistic idea.

Concussion is not a serious injury. Concussion is just a name given to a collective of signs and symptoms resulting FROM the serious injury - traumatic brain injury.
