Forcing women to compete against biologically male competitors is "just not fair."
Who are these fools that make the rules, of course they only competed against females or males - nothing else matters

A groundbreaking new study on transgender athletes has found trans women retain a 12% advantage in running tests even after taking hormones for two years to suppress their testosterone.

It would be best if sport governing bodies just created a separate category for trans athletes, bypassing all the concerns regarding disparities in athletic capability.
I'm all for trans rights, lessened discrimination and stigmas, etc, which is something society is in dire need of, but in the world of sports where people want fair competition, a line has to be drawn somewhere.
@deadgerbil I agree, those are two separate issues.
