This issue so complex. It’s nothing to do with racism, feminism or about the genetic advantage of a single person. The effects of elevated testosterone on performance can’t be ignored. I truly believe this is in the interests of protecting female athletes’ rights and competition.https://twitter.com/jon_brown_/status/1097985800816324608 …
Transgender is different and I understand Navratilova’s point. If you are born and grow up male you cannot be allowed to compete in female sports simply because you ‘identify’ as female. It makes a mockery of the definitions of male and female sports categories.

I wonder if one way of making things fair is to rule that taking any drugs that adjust someone’s performance to improve or even lessen their abilities should be banned. I don’t think it is fair for instance to medicate in order to qualify for a sports category.

Only if you think that it's fair to essentially exclude the vast majority of female people from competing at the top level of sports
