Good luck with that for womens' basketball, baseball, and hockey teams. That transgender male being forced to play on womens' teams because he has XX chromosomes is gonna clean up.
I realize that logic is not everyone's forte, so I will try to help.


You are the only person I have ever heard state "It's not fair to let her compete against biological males having XY chromosomes."

I think there is a very simple and logical reason why no one else has stated that.

In fact, if a transgender man is receiving hormone therapy (also known as performance enhancing drugs) that person should not be allowed to compete against biological women. She can cut off or add whatever body parts she wants, she can dress in any way she wants. But if she is taking testosterone, that is PEDs, and that should disqualify her from competing against biological females.

You can TRY to twist this any way you want. You can try to assign negative intent of hatred or discrimination all you want. But you are wrong. The basis for this whole discussion is fairness of competion. If you have an unfair advantage based on biology or testosterone therapy, you do not get to compete against those who do not have that unfair advantage.
