It's a no-brainer. No biological males in women's sport, period. That's why we have them separate to begin with.

Create enough 'categories' to ensure fairness. Women's right were hard fought for - let's not lose our sporting rights!

Women’s sport will be destroyed if people born and and developed as male are allowed to compete against women whatever the T level is set at.

Please keep womens sport for women.
We need to encourage, not discourage women into sport, there are so many positive benefits for society that will be eroded if we continue to let biological men into women's sport

Humans are sexually dimorphic and sex is immutable. There is no mechanism, medication nor surgery, to change sex. Therefore, transwomen are in fact men. And men competing against women is cheating.

Assignment of sex at birth is the only fair way to compete on any basis.

Physical birth genetics cannot be changed by changing your appearance, hormone levels or body parts. If you are born a man you are likely to be stronger than a woman, even if it's a twin sister. Therefore you should be made to compete in the biological sex category you were born in as define by genital assignment at birth most of all .

Allowing biological men regardless of what they indenitify as to compete in women's sports sets us back a century. Men already dominate the sports world as far as sports and athletes getting recognition, $, airtime, etc. This is as unfair as not even having a women's division.

men's bodies are different from women's bodies. A trasgender man dressing as a woman still has a man's body. This gives him an unfair hormonal advantage over female born women

No one is trying to discriminate against trans women or deny their right to exist.
However, science is about facts, not representation.
Men have XY chromosomes and women have XX chromosomes. Even intersex people fall neatly into XX or XY. There are chromosomal abnormalities like Kleinfelder’s Sydrome that creates an XXY chromosome but those are very rare.
The fact is, that everyone knows we have men’s and women’s sports for a reason: because men are biologically stronger than women.
Raising or lowering testosterone doesn’t even matter, because testosterone production starts In utero. Even if a trans woman took puberty blockers at age 11 or 12, they would still benefit from 13 years of testosterone.
Not to mention myriads of other difference in male and female physiology.
If we allow trans women to compete with women, it won’t be long before all sport is biologically male.
There are 8 trans women on the Iranian soccer team.
So women’s sports will be on transwomen, that’s it.
Notice how trans men don’t try to compete in men’s sports? It’s because S biological women, they’ll never be able to.
I’m not sure why trans women were allowed to compete in the first place. Gender identity has nothing to do with biological and sex differences.
Please defend women’s rights to play. Otherwise all sports suddenly becomes men’s sports.
Trans people should simply start their own leagues if they wish to compete.
Furthermore, most of us aren’t born athletes either. We watch instead of participating because we don’t have the in-born talent.
We aren’t trying to force sports federations to make a special competition for flat-footed people for example.
This should never have happened in the first place. That’s common sense.
Please keep Women’s sports for female women ,
Happy to support the same civil rights we all have. But we cannot: (1) deny science (2) deny women their separate spaces and pursuits.
Women don’t hate trans women, We
