    No disagreement here.

    I believe most of the medicinal/health stuff would is assumed to be chromosome based, but I don’t think there’s been a ton of research into whether it’s truly something genetics based from the chromosomes or from the long term effects of different hormone balances on someone’s body over the course of their life.

    Given how relatively new a lot of these dysphoria treatments are, I think we’ll probably be learning a lot about where the differences actually come from in a generation or two as we see this stuff become more common.

      When it comes to sports there really is not any question any more. Again, I’m not a physician, but any given sports body can determine what a trans woman needs to do to compete on a level playing field with cis women.

      This is best evidenced by the lack of trans women superstars. Despite the Daily Wire’s recent magnum opus, trans women compete and lose all the time in women’s sports, it’s only the transphobes who have a problem with them competing at all.
