If we are to preserve women’s sport then those who wish to participate have to be of equal sex, not superior

Women are physically unable to overcome the strength and organ capacity of men. When physically male people are allowed into women's sports, they will win by cheating, No one has a "right" to win in athletics. Males, of any gender expression should complete with males.

I would like to see Male, Female, and a new Open (to all) category. I don’t want Trans-Men/Women excluded from sport but it must be fair and therefore based on sex not gender identity. The Female category was introduced because of the obvious disadvantages.

I have an elite level 18year old daughter who competes globally in triathlon, I see the hours of gruelling training that my daughter and her peers put in,she is top of the GB ranking list but compared to the boys ranking list would be in the bottom 5% Endurance sport, bigger skeletal frame to pack bigger muscles, 25% percent more muscle mass and even more lung capacity !! Absolutely ludicrous, it's filtrating all sports at all levels and gaining concerning momentum!!

Good luck! It's not too late to change this. If any area of life has a chance to see sense on trans issue, it's sport. Let's hope it does, and it's the start of a bigger resistance.

Ridiculous to allow men to compete with women in physical sports.

Sport is played with bodies, not gender identities. Male bodies must stay out of female sport.

Stop putting females in physical danger. We have a right to compete fairly in sport.

There are clear, rational and indisputable reasons why sport must be segregated by sex.

What a huge step backwards for women. But that actually seems like it must be the goal because soon there will be no women's sports for these trans men to compete in.

Play fair is a major rule in sport, allowing XY people who have grown up as boys and were born as boys with all the physical advantages that brings makes a nonsense of fair play.

This is now reaching the heights of ridiculousness. The fact men can self identify into women’s sport after 6 months of hormones? The fact men can self identify into women’s sports at all? Sports for women are being destroyed and the feelings of a minority group of men who wish they’d been born women seems to have more importance placed on them than the fact Women’s Sport is for Women. Don’t deny women of the future the opportunities women of the past have fought for and enjoyed. Don’t make it so they have less while men have more. I beseech you.

Sports should be segregated by sexes or with a transgender category added. It is dangerous to allow transwomen to play contact sports. With biological women. Transwomen are physiologically at an advance if they have gone through puberty as males as they have more muscle mass, and larger lung capacity, among other physical advantages compared to biological women. Transwomen will be the end of women's sports if it is allowed to continue.
