We get that, or at least some of us do. But not performing like a man doesn't make someone a woman or put them on a level playing field with people who were born female.
I fully support people's right to transition, and I know that gender dysphoria is a real thing. But if anyone knows that gender isn't a light switch dichotomy, it should be transgender individuals. I'm afraid one of the things one must sacrifice to be a transwoman is the opportunity to compete in sports on an equal footing with either men or women.
