    Transgender athletes are breaking barriers in the U.S. and abroad in all levels of sports and are being embraced by teammates and fans. But resentments can still flare up.http://apne.ws/LIVj62v

        There's no such thing as a level playing field, but agreed rules should try. Some individuals will be "freaks of nature" who can out-perform everyone else with less effort. If you can avoid self-pity with such rivals, you can try to up your game, even if it isn't fair.

        This is so wrong. It belittles true woman by embracing this. I feel sorry for true biological woman as it only hurts them.

        So true. All the hard work will be destroyed by a men who’s a transgender. It says transgender and not woman. They should not be allowed to compete against women.

        Yeah, a biological male: bigger and stronger than biological females, competing as a female, is something to cheer for.

        Letting a man compete with women is cheating. Resentments are normal when cheating is involved.

        When men compete as women in sports that's just cheating.
