maybe losing scholarships if a boy can compete in girl's sports. I am thinking that even taking hormones etc can't correct the obvious advantage that masculine muscle structure especially upper body and testosterone gives to males. if its all equal are trans men trying to play football? should be able to with some testosterone? Forgive me. Just trying to figure it out.

I tend to believe that god made no mistakes so trans people are exactly how they were born; trans and all trans is normal as is all other gender identities.

Maybe we should do all sports by height and weight. That might be more fair. Height gives basketball players more advantages only because the height of the basket. They are not better athletes because of height but because of advantage of height to the sport. So much to think about.

I'm pretty sure my naivety is going to be blasted but at least I do expect to learn something and I thank you in advance
