What do you think of trans women in sports? Is it fair to the biological women?

I'm all about trans men and women being accepted and recognized as the gender with witch they identify.
My view of it is, i have no idea what it's like to feel like i'm in the wrong body so who am i to judge.

No issues with bathrooms or changerooms etc.
But when it comes to sports and competition, i can't help but feel like there's a problem.
Is it fair for a trans woman to be competing against biological women? After all, they'll have the strength of a man and there's a reason that we separate men and women in sporting events.

Keep things respectful here.

I have no issues with bathrooms or trans but sports it's a little unfair. Biologically they were once males so they do have more upper body strength.

The problem I see here is that we are trying to get equality for LGBT people but trans males even if they are now female competing in sports against women is going to make people resent them.

So it will give the far right nutters more ammo in the long run and people will began fighting against the trans community when they already receive so much hate.

Definitely. We've already seen it in this thread
