Please be clear about language. It is not symmetrically about 'people' Males who take female hormones is a different situation from females who take male hormones. Females dont have physical advantages over males in the first place, and taking T is doping.

The view that males who take hormone treatment do not retain a physical advantage is not supported by evidence https://fairplayforwomen.com/emma_hilton/ The question of whether males should be allowed to play in women's sports is important enough to deserve an answer.

Now you have some more information, and through the veil of ignorance, what do you think about whether males should be allowed to compete in women's sport?

Doesn't the veil of ignorance involve you thinking about other things than *your* list of concerns?

OK. Well taking on board that some people are born female and some of those people have an interest in competitive sport & we know that males have a physical advantage & we don't know that taking hormones eliminates that advantage

...you ought to be able to come up w some conclusion based on principles of fairness and evidence surely? Personally I think the answer is sport is organised by sex not gender identity, but you seem to think there is a prima facie case it should be organised by gender identity?

OK. No take on sports. Are there other areas where laws and policy currently allow single sex services and spaces for women (i.e. female people) where you think there is a case for those protections to be removed and/or single sex to become 'gender identity' ?

Most "intersex" conditions are specific disorders of sexual development which affect either male or female people. The idea that people with these conditions should be excluded from the "binary system" (i.e. equality law covering sex discrimination) does not defend their rights
