But ability is linked to biological sex.

Generally, yes. But variability between individuals can be more diverse than the averages between sexes. Sorting by sex would mean the weak male nerd is way outclassed and the tough chick isn’t being challenged. Sorting by skill is more fair.

Not at all. You can’t get rid of male advantage. I agree with sorting but it must be by sex then ability. Send me some papers that show you’re right because ethically you’re wrong.

Remember, those male advantages are averages, not absolutes. There are some men weaker than some women. If a male and female are of roughly equal ability, why shouldn’t they be allowed to compete with one another?

Because it’s unsafe.

How so?

So world rugby did research and showed that male advantage remains after T suppression and cross sex hormones. It increases serious or catastrophic injury of 20-30% to female rugby players. . Which is huge. www.world.rugby/the-game/pla...

Secondly, The Sports Councils of the four Home Counties thought carefully about safety, fairness, and inclusion for sport. The emphasis on T levels as the appropriate marker, has failed.

They found it was impossible to include transwomen in sports for safety and fairness reasons similar to the above rugby example. Can you read the two reports before asking any other short questions? Thanks. movingtoinclusion.co.uk/wp-content/u...

Also here is a good paper on why it’s unfair, philosophically speaking, to have trans women compete with natal women. Hope this helps your understanding of this complex topic. Here, sadly, Trump is right and the trans community are ignoring harm to women. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
