Mamdani, the presumptive Democratic nominee to be the next mayor of New York and a self-identified democratic socialist, said Sunday billionaires contribute to inequality.
Trans women were allowed to compete in the Olympics in 2004. That’s 21 years ago. Six olympics.
The Paris Olympics had 11,040 athletes. The Athens Olympics had 10,600. Let’s average those for 10,800 and say 64,8000 athletes competed in the Summer Olympics since trans women were allowed.
Only one transgender athlete has ever won an Olympic medal. Their name is Quinn, they’re a soccer player from Canada. And they were born female. They won two medals.
So the percentage of trans people in the general population is 1%, the percentage of Olympic athletes who are trans and won a medal is 0.0015%, and the percentage of Olympic athletes who were born male and won a medal in the women’s league is 0.0000%.
What you should be understanding from these figures is that trans women will never dominate sporting events of any kind. We suck at sports because we’re all big nerds. Any trans person who is good at sports is a freak.
