Yes, but transgender rights must not be allowed to impact adversely on women’s rights... as in sport etc. Otherwise it will simply promote further inequality.https://twitter.com/SenSanders/status/1181561367716716544 …

This sounds a lot like British football... a pretty good system all told - at least as far as matching skill levels goes.

How does that sound like British football?

athletes are distinguished by skill levels. always will have starters and benchwarmers. If one's always a benchwarmer, time to find another skill. A highly skilled transgender will beat a highly skilled woman. It'll get to a point where it's no longer women sport.

.....if it's just skill level at issue.....may as well consider making ALL competitive sports co-ed.

That is a good argument against excluding women from "men's" teams, but not for having "protected" opportunities for women, children, seniors, "special" etc.

Skill levels, competition, qualifying....identifies the starters and the benchwarmers. If we open up competitive sports to all genders, where will the top males, top transgenders, top women qualify? Most likely in that order..males, trans, women.

Depends on what the audience wants to see. Not "fairness".

Following your argument we should get rid of age boundaries and Paralympic categories too.

A league system apart from being unworkable at elite level would push women down to lower leagues. The best female athletes would be relegated to say league 10 - who will want to watch and financially support at this level? So this = end of professional sport for women.
