        This is so ridiculous! Women who transition into men can't physically compete in men's sports fairly, but men who transition into women are allowed to compete with women?? How unfair to women!!

        This is not correct, and you clearly have no grasp of how a trans woman's body changes during reassigment. A trans woman's hormones and muscle mass are much closer to a cis woman's than a cis man's.https://theestablishment.co/no-female-trans-athletes-do-not-have-unfair-advantages-14b8e249f93c …

        Yeah! That must explain why boys transing into girls always win their matches against other girls while girls transing into boys don't. Don't be silly reading silly science. Boys who become girls have an unfair advantage.

        What about the muscles? They are born with man muscles so will be stronger and probably will win leaving natural females at a serious disadvantage. Please put me in my place if I am incorrect.

        Completely incorrect. 1) Men gain that extra muscle mass from testosterone. Take away that testosterone and the muscles atrophy to female levels. Trans women take testosterone blockers (spironolactone). So after a few months they are physically no stronger than cis women

        2) muscle is muscle, there isn't 'man muscle'. The difference between cell behavior is dictated by hormones attached to the cell receptors. Androgens lock onto the cell and it activates male qualities. Estrogens lock on to activate female. Cells dont know what sex they are

        3) change the hormones (say to female) and new replacement cells behave exactly as any female. As tge body replaces cells the whole body shifts sex. Only structures built on structures (bone shape for example) cannot change. Otherwise, 100% totally the same

        4) a couple of years into HRT and there isn't a hair, skin, fat, muscle cell that isnt using female parts of your dna. After seven years your bone is 100% too. So much so you suffer osteoporosis risks like any woman.

        This is ridiculous! Yeah, the majority of women running the race dont care bc they are not competing, they are just there as a social event. It hurts the top 10 women that are actually trying to win the race and are going to be out performed. Just sad!
