They're not banned from sports
The "male" division has no segregation whatsoever. Women or handicapped people or little people or giants are allowed to compete.

Same way a guy who is 235 pounds is banned from the Welterweight division but not banned from sports

But yes people with Male biological bodies should be banned from womens divisions even if their gender is female.

Your inference of "Well Shaq has good genes " is irrelevant

I didn't say "banned from sports", I said banned from competitive sports against people without the same biological advantages. In other words, having divisions based on sets of advantages (but you knew what I meant). Why is it that biological sex (or gender, I guess) is one distinction that needs to be make, but none within sex/gender, where you could have just as much of a difference over your competition within the same division (but where you are not segregated). Why are women the only group that "needs" protection from opponents who have (one specific set) advantages? What about other groups that are disadvantaged in competitive sports? Why do they not need their own divisions? Why is this one special?
