Honestly how could anyone say "this isn't complicated"

Sports scientists are calling this the most complex issue sport has ever had to face. Trans athletes, female athletes, sporting bodies, ethics bodies, scientists - no one is having a nice time with this topic right now.

Men have a pretty massive advantage over women in athletics. Hormones aren't as dramatic as the differences between men and women. The PC issue is what is preventing people from being real about this. This really isn't that complicated. It is just the politics around the issue that make it complex. People have issue with making women's sports exclusive, but they also don't want to ruin the competition.

Why don't we hear about FtMs dominating the competition or doing well at all? It is much more rare.

The only complication is that it is possible that if you give the proper hormones to a pre pubescent child they may develop more into their identified sex and/or gender than they would otherwise. That also raises concerns and various ethical questions in and of itself.
