And it breaks civil rights laws in many states for high schools to not treat tg'd XYs as women -- as they should, arguably except for this one wild loophole

The nuance comes in the form of the argument that hormone therapy reduces muscle mass over time, so someone who has been TG a long time no longer has an advantage. The counter argument comes from the two tg'd men coming in first and second at the Connecticut state track finals last year and breaking the meet record along the way.

It will cause XX girls to stop participating in girl's sports. As one shitposter put it, "Girls, you had your shot but once again boys are superior and you'll just have to live with it."

S'a tough one.
You know, right now sportsball doesn't seem quite as important.
