The High School has a statistics competition on Saturday morning for some very smart Sophomores. 20 students will have two hours to complete complex statistics problems..(normal distributions, curves tables etc).
Another professor has an extremely smart daughter who is a SENIOR**. He demands that she be allowed to participate in the competition.
This is a group of strictly sophomores.
You are asked by the group to intercede, and to tell the Senior that it is strictly for sophomores. Would you think that she should not join the sophomores since she is a senior?
**Other elements, like her being a statistics expert, are not relevant . Only that she is a senior, they are sophomores.
@AverageJoe1 saidIf she identifies as a sophomore then its fine...

There has been a steady trickle of really smart kids that are more than able to do the work of students twice their age, and I have yet to read an account of one being denied progress.
Your lame idea to setup a scenario to pivot to your trans obsession is just that. Lame
@AverageJoe1 said"...an AVERAGE of two hours..."
20 students will have two hours to complete complex statistics problems..(normal distributions, curves tables etc).
If 5 of the students are children of millionaires and get 3.5 hrs to complete the problems, how many hours do the non-privileged students each get? 😆
@spruce112358 saidGiven these facts, they too, would get3.5. Of course, many different factors such as this, changing the hours from two to 3.5, would not affect the tenor of the question, , so best to stick to yes or no, for the senior to be admitted when it clearly is limited to sophomores.

@AverageJoe1 saidI would have thought "AVERAGE" Joe would be better at statistics! 😆

You're FIRED! 😆
@AverageJoe1
you raise a great point. In a similar line, here is my example. soccer.
An 11 year old soccer player wants to play with the U-8 players instead of the U-12 players that he is suited for.
The organizers refuse to let him, citing the danger he would be to smaller players.
Now, please note, the boy us NOT being denied the right to play soccer, only what division he plays in.
The trans female also is not being denied a chance to compete, only what division they must be in,
@Earl-of-Trumps saidKinda the same as saying to Brittany Griner "Hey the average woman in the US is 5'3.5" and you're 6'8", so you have to play in the NBA against Lebron James and Jayson Tatum".

She wouldn't be denied a chance to compete either, right?
@my-king-and-i removed their quoted postNo one seems to think so. I liked the simplicity of it, and it could open some good discussions. We are 6 posts in since i posted it, and no one responds to this situation. Not one. Some just silly ones. Instead of a response it is a not-response.
It is not so much the subject of the OP, but why there can be not one comment, to admit the senior or not. And not what some organizing entity might decide, but what one of us might think of it, if we read it in the paper. There may not even be an organizing entity, just the brainy students who hatch out the idea.
What can be gleaned from this thread, in a debate world. I am very sad.
@no1marauder saidThis is not germane, Marauder. You one of those people, those 6 above? Why do this?

You say 'right' like suzinne does. It looks funny in writing.
So can you be adult in assessing this question?
@AverageJoe1 saidNot sure if you picked the tenor of this post.

"Doogie Howser MD.

Surely this answered your surmising. But it didn't set up your bait and switch so you started crying like a widdle snowflake. Whats that bit about facts and feelings?
@AverageJoe1 saidYou really do suck at analogies.

@AverageJoe1 saidClearly you cannot comprehend his question and are therefore ineligible to post the original analogy.
