The very concept of dividing the population into two separate groups that needs to have two different sets of restrooms and changing rooms to serve them IS GENDER The concept of having two different sports leagues at all IS GENDER

Women and men can compete in boxing and martial arts and wrestling against each other just fine by using weight classes. It's actually not even hard to divide track and field by VO2Max classes.

No they cant. At all. Women risk 40% more career ending injuries against men due to bone density and muscle density differences amongs other things It is why fallon fox broke a womens skull and ender her career in less than a minute when in womens MMA even scrapes are rare .

Ronda Rousey, who publicly criticized Fallon Fox for fighting "as a woman", has also trash-talked opponents by bragging about "dislocating a dozen joints" over the course of her career She dislocated her own mother (a judo champion)'s shoulder during training as a teen
