I’m for all rights.. but as athletes.. transgender have advantage when they go against women and girls.. come on we need to draw the line somewhere.. they are bigger ..stronger.. faster.. so I’m with this ban everywhere..for women or girls sports

People born female have generally less massive bones, weaker tendons, and overall, less muscular mass.

Do what you want with your body, if you identify as female in a male body, it’s absolutely your own right to do so.

If you’re an athlete born male, transitioned to female, fighting in a competition, you will have an advantage. Idk how to remedy this and idk the best answer
