Thank goodness! That means only cis girls will be subjected to genital checks to ensure they won't be secretly the first trans woman trying to compete. Got to keep women safe after all! (That sentiment was sarcasm, the repercussions are real.)

@NerdyPotato I secretly wonder whether all this hysteria over trans athletes in order to ensure genital checks was the idea all along…

@iamthe99 maybe for some, because most predators belong to the same groups who are so afraid of trans people indeed. But the people who created that narrative did it as kind of a pilot to dehumanize people. You know, start with a very small minority to get people used to it, then move on to bigger and bigger groups.
