Says a lot about the state of Reddit that a comment defending women’s rights to compete fairly is downvoted so much.

I’m 99% sure you won’t answer this as it could end your career but how do you feel about Biological Males entering women’s sports as trans women and breaking records?
There have been so many egregious examples now of biological women being beaten (literally in the case of Fallon Fox competing in MMA), and robbed of medals by trans women who have had a lifetime of being in a male body and the many advantages that they brings and anyone who speaks out about it trying to defend women’s sports is usually denounced as a transphobe.
There needs to be a place for trans people in sports. It’s unfair for them not to be able to compete but competing against biological women, often with minimal hormone therapy and transitioning late in life, is not fair in my opinion. A lifetime of accrued advantages do not simply disappear after a year of hormone therapy or a gender recognition certificate.

100% agree. Height, propensity towards concussions, reaction times, and about a thousand other things do not go away magically after hormone treatment (which iirc doesn’t even need to be particularly extensive under Olympic rules). It’s massively unfair to women and a blatant example of male privilege.
