women's sport and transgender athletes

so this may be a touchy subject, and frankly, a lot on here dont even care.

but, is women's sport heading down a dangerous road with Transgender athletes?

naturally you'd assume a woman becoming a man would be at zero advantage in male sports, realistically a huge disadvantage.

But with more and more men transitioning to becoming a woman yet carrying their male athleticism with them surely this is a ridiculously unfair situation for natural women to compete in?

Is there a particular individual that made you think about it to create the op? Just curious, not a loaded question.

Of course they shouldn't compete with biological women. It's unfair.
Beyond that I have no solution.

One thing I find funny is that women who no longer "identify" as women still get to compete on women's teams, but men who "identify" as women also get to compete on women's teams.

Initially I was completely against it as it's so blatantly unfair, but as I've dug more into it it's interesting how many of the main proponents are women. And how few of the women openly stand up and say they're against it (aside from some of the older, retired ones like Radcliffe and Navratalova).
It's come to the point where if women want to welcome men to run all over them, then I'm all for it. Get back to the days where women knew their place - none of this equal pay, right to vote, able to drive nonsense.
Maybe women are just built to be second class?

Never heard a single person who said transgender men should be allowed to compete with women, and if a sporting board said it’s not allowed I doubt many would care.

The minority extreme left have a huge voice in the media.

I don't think they should be allowed to compete with women but at the same time transphobia is a much bigger issue than acknowledged on this thread. Much bigger and prevalent.

Do you speak from experience?

You do come across as a bit of a sissy.
