True. There are some sports where a transwoman would have an unfair advantage if she went through puberty before transitioning. Combat sports are one such example. There is no one easy answer for all sports.This is why I'd call them protected/open categories, this kind of inane bigoteering is so tiresome.
An avid sports enthusiast will not accept an biological edge that others cannot have. There are some that see sports as just a social event, but you can be very sure none of them were anywhere near being top notch competitors. If one cuts off transwomen when does one do so? If one allows them how long must they be on testosterone blockers and how strong do they need to be?
I think that what we will see is a mixed solution eventually where there may be a cutoff point in competition.
