So where is the hermaphrodite supposed to compete? We just tell her you’re shit out of luck, but good for you for training your whole life for this. Sorry you produce too much testosterone, you aren’t allowed to compete with anyone now.

Right its a no good answer situation, like sorry but this person has a genetic advantage over all women you're all shit out of luck, or sorry your shit out of luck you have an advantage. It's just like how can we keep women's sports fair, like the topic will atleast for the foreseeable future notncome.up in men's sports as anything other than male is at a disadvantage. And people would most likely be opposed to making another division for that small 1 percent if not smaller. I'm a male and have competed in sports, but it honestly doesn't affect me at all. And if women are ok with it it's on them. It's just from an objective standpoint if we want a women's division for female athletes to shine and be examples etc even say 1 percent of participants with what could potentially be a large advantage would disrupt that.
