You won't find anyone left or right here agreeing with trans athletes that transitioned after puberty and so very much have male muscle. Perhaps their own category will happen someday. Chimeric or whatever genetically peculiar humans exist, they always have and may well be becoming more common. There is no easy answer but that's reality. Sometimes we can't just shoehorn a fix saying anybody who says they are female, is. Not in sports.
'Imane Khelif is a man - I have proof and I'm not the only one' claims former opponent Imane Khelif has been at the centre of a gender row after winning Olympic gold in Paris and now a former sparring partner has claimed that the Algerian is a "man" who has been "biologically altered" https://www.irishstar.com/news/us-news/imane-khelif-olympics-man-claim-33452342
I think this is an issue mainly, because we as a society seem to care about sporting achievements of others and celebrate skills that men have an advantage in. We see being tall, having a high vertical leap, the ability to move quickly, and being physically strong as good things. So to avoid looking sexist society, but recognizing physical differences we created these segregated sports leagues for women. However, men generally don't care/look up to these women or their skillsets. Women rarely care about women in sports either. The main physical talent that women have over men is flexibility. This is why women's gymnastics gets more attention than men's gymnastics, contrary to basically every other sport. I think we have to ask, why do we as a society put so much money/thought/care into something so meaningless? Look at college sports. Other than football and basketball, they all lose money, and yet we give these kids free scholarships and travel to these events. Why? What is the actual return for us via their hard work and physical gifts? Remember that adults playing high level sports exist for one reason, entertainment. It's nothing, but a dopamine increase for society. Of course trans people are biologically different from women. However, I just can't get morally outraged over it, because I ask why should I care at all about these sports that much in the first place? There's other ways to get a dopamine fix.

The Supreme Court blocks the Biden administration from extending Title IX (meant to support women in sports) to include protections for transgenders -- meaning that transgenders could compete on women's teams and share the women's locker room.

It's not only biological males competing in women's sports which is the problem. Public school systems are also forcing eleven your old biological females to sleep in a bed with biological males on field trips, and allowing 'nonbinary' females to supervise boys in showers. It's completely cuckoo -- and shortly we will get to see what the courts say -- especially about the schools hiding what they are doing.

This is the ad that will likely allow Cruz to glide to a win in this election in Texas -- assuming the attack against Allred sticks. Democrats need to stop their support of allowing biological males to play in females sports. Parents and voters on both sides of the aisle in America have had enough of this undermining of women's sports. Very smart of Cruz and his PACs to focus on this issue rather than illegal immigration, the economy or other issues. This issue is one that will likely get many voters behind him. Especially since the ad is also being played in Spanish across the state -- the Hispanic population segment of voters generally strongly disapproves of biological males playing on female teams. Allred's and the Democrats past support of allowing biological males to play on your daughter's team probably spells doom for his election effort -- assuming Cruz's ads are effective. 'Against our daughters': Cruz challenger hit with blistering 7-figure ad over transgender sports bill vote https://www.foxnews.com/politics/ag...7-figure-ad-over-transgender-sports-bill-vote A conservative super PAC is blanketing the airwaves with a new advertisement slamming Texas Democratic Senate candidate Rep. Colin Allred, who is locked in a high-profile race against Republican incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz. The pro-Cruz Truth and Courage PAC is rolling out a $3 million dollar ad buy in Texas hitting the Democratic congressman over his previous support of allowing biological males to compete in sports against female opponents. "Texas girls are tough," the 30-second version of the ad says, as it shows young women training for various sporting events. "But they're facing a new opponent they can't beat by digging deeper." "Colin Allred could have stopped men from competing in women's sports, but instead, he voted against our daughters," the ad continues before it shows a man resembling Allred with the name "Allred" on his jersey, tackling one of the girls. "What kind of man does that?" There is also a 60-second version of the ad that shows him in a couple of photos with then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. As the ad shows the photos, the narrator says Allred "voted against the Protection of Women and Girls Act of 2023. He stood with woke progressives and radical Democrats, not our daughters." The ad, which will also run in Spanish, cites Allred's vote in Congress against The Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act of 2023, which passed the House on a party line vote with President Biden saying he would veto it if it got to his desk. "This is a disgusting, false attack, and another example of how Ted Cruz only wants to divide Texans," Allred campaign spokesperson Josh Stewart told Fox News Digital. "He’ll say anything to distract from his dangerous abortion ban that is putting women's lives at risk, trying to raise the retirement age for Social Security and Medicare and fleeing to Cancun during a deadly winter storm." Cruz won his last Senate race by about three points in 2018, and some experts believe that this year's race could be close again. While the Real Clear Politics polling average shows Cruz with a five-point lead in the race, there are some troubling signs for the Republican incumbent, including recent polls showing Cruz with a lead close to within the margin of error. "Texas will stay red this November and Ted Cruz will win re-election," Jimmy Keady, the founder and president of JLK Political Strategies, recently told Fox News Digital. "But Republicans should not take the threat of losing this state lightly. As the Republican Party makes a play for blue states, Democrats are going to start making a play for red states… to hold these seats, Republicans will have to stay disciplined on messaging and prioritize candidate recruitment."
