Agreed. The similarity I see between these two (which is what I think at least partially mc32 was getting at) is freedom of choice. Both are/were fighting for their freedom to choose. For better or worse it is always better to let freedom of expression be allowed. I’m not watching the olympics this year (not sure why) but I appreciate the Norwegian team’s expression: focus on my merit not my body. By threatening disqualification and/or fining they are denying at least some potential olympians from expressing themselves at the olympics. In essence they are being denied the ultimate “freedom of expression” of the human body - to compete in the olympics.
