Boys still have fluctuating hormones that affect them.. and girls don't even come close to their plateau in Irish dance until their 20s. If you hit your plateau as a teen you just aren't working hard enough. Your excuses are getting just purely stupid at this point. -- Main Irish Dance Message Board!

Read up on current issues in women's sport. Track and field, gymnastics, soccer, all are looking into how menstruation (the entire cycle, not just that 1 week/month) affects female athletes. It's fine to not know everything, but telling people to 'grow up' when they offer a POV you haven't come across isn't good for anyone, least of all yourself. (NT) -- ., 02:47:25 02/14/24 Wed
- As a female athlete who has menstruated, I am pretty sure I understand the issue. And feel comfortable telling you to grow up. Not every POV is equal and yours makes you sound like you are grasping at straws. Entertaining worthless POV is more damaging than helpful. (NT) -- ..., 13:17:15 02/14/24 Wed
  - Lived experience isn’t the same as academic and clinical research. And if you think you have a complete understanding based on your own lived experience, when everyone’s cycle is different…fascinating. (NT) -- .x, 02:28:23 02/15/24 Thu
    - Right, every one is different, so painting them all the same way as debilitating or even a disadvantage is laughable. It is a ridiculous excuse because no two females go through it the same. (NT) -- poor excuse, 07:53:40 02/15/24 Thu
      - You'll quickly need to tell sports governing bodies, academic institutions and funders that they're wasting their time researching it then. If only they'd checked with you first. (NT) -- ., 02:42:53 02/19/24 Mon
        Do you know how often time and money is wasted by all those groups in unneeded research? They know what they are doing. The fact that you equate research being done to meaningful results are reached speaks volumes as to why they do it (NT) -- they know what they're doing., 08:47:24 02/20/24 Tue
        I know there's a character limit so sometimes it's difficult to make a point succinctly but I'm afraid I have no idea what point you were making there. (NT) -- ., 03:17:57 02/22/24 Thu
        Please point out where I lost you and I'll be happy to explain it. Or I can go sentence by sentence if you would like. Just let me know. (NT) -- no problem., 12:45:02 02/24/24 Sat
this is factually incorrect and is why so many teen girls get injured -- it has to stop, 05:58:21 02/15/24 Thu
