Didn't say banning from all sports Just professional one’s where an athlete will have maximised their physical capability. there will always be advantages in sports that's why they have weight divisions in combat sports,

Exactly. There are means of balancing out advantage without excluding whole groups. And we already tolerate some group’s genetic advantages.

You wouldn’t and no one is suggesting that. But with testosterone blockers you could have teams with trans women that met existing tolerance to genetic difference. Because trans women are women.

Notice also - TERFs and other transphobes (not aimed at you) object to trans women on testosterone blockers participating in sport because of male puberty, but also object to puberty blockers…

Also notice how transphobes didn’t want trans women playing chess www.bbc.co.uk/sport/67127168 Sports, for many, are essentially a beachhead for transphobes.

Blockers only work on about 30% of testosterone, so I've read .

I’ve never seen that figure. I’ve seen that different people react differently. But there are different levels of testosterone in individuals anyway.
