Pretty much this. If the ability of 10 women cap out at 9, and the ability of 10 men cap out at 10, and the ability of a transgender male-to-female caps out at the same 10 that they did when they were male, then it would be an unfair advantage for those transgenders to be on the womens' teams.
I actually agree with that conclusion. I just disagree with the stigma and vitriol and fear of "other" I read here on this forum from people who pretend to be a) christians and b) residents of America's Friendliest Hometown.
