Ok, so heres the plan. All I need to do is start identifying as a female then start competing in female competitions and end up dominating podiums and go to the 2018 olympics. Once I get away with that other skiers like noah wallace will see the potential and do the same thing, being able to double an go pretty hard, noah wallace will end up pushing other women to start trying harder tricks, in fear of losing all their sponsors.

check this out:
Already throughly thought this out....... You need less then a certain amount of testosterone and at least a certain amount of estrogen to actually compete so you have to actually become a girl to some extent to compete you can't just identify.
I do think that women should go harder......I'm still not sure if it's genetics or girls body weight is distributed different or what but I've never seen a girl 8 off or dub so if a guy competed as a girl he/she would reck.
I don't think there should be mens or womens categories - Just have pro and am. Sure some girls will give up, but the ones who don't will eventually become just as good as the men.
If you look at other sports like rock climbing for example, women are almost on par with men even though rock climbing requires a lot more strength than skiing does. Lynn Hill for example, was the first person to make a free ascent of El Capitan back in the early 90's - making her one of the best climbers at the time - man or woman. Why was she that good? Because she climbed with men and didn't use the fact that she was a woman as an excuse.
Maybe with Kelly Sildaru coming up will start to see some of the same mentality.
I sexually Identify as an Attack Helicopter. Ever since I was a boy I dreamed of soaring over the oilfields dropping hot sticky loads on disgusting foreigners. People say to me that a person being a helicopter is Impossible and I’m fucking retarded but I don’t care, I’m beautiful. I’m having a plastic surgeon install rotary blades, 30 mm cannons and AMG-114 Hellfire missiles on my body. From now on I want you guys to call me “Apache” and respect my right to kill from above and kill needlessly. If you can’t accept me you’re a heliphobe and need to check your vehicle privilege. Thank you for being so understanding.
Nobody seems to realize that the progression of male skiing over the past 20 years has been remarkable. It went from the simple ability to land backwards to both way switch 10's, to every double variation in a short amount of time. I can't think of another sport in history that has progressed this rapidly. I don't think its a matter of males being so superior to females, but a matter of the speed of progression. Think the 100m dash for example. In the late 1800's men were able to run it in under 11 seconds. It took women almost 100 years to reach that level. True there are sports like Climbing in which women are arguably some of the best in the world with no gender separation, but that is a purely body weight sport. When it comes to power and agility, men are born with the upper hand. Give women's skiing some time and we will see the progression the community is asking for.
