XY against XY, not XY against XX. Sports events are looking for the best, not the best imposter. If an XX wants to compete against an XY, let it happen, If a lightweight wants to compete against a heavyweight, let it happen. Go up to your best not down to your best.
This is the right thing to do for women to have a fair chance to win. Perhaps a new trans division should be established for them to participate.
