    You can easily tell that this concern about trans people in sports being unfair because it gives the trans person an advantage is BS when you look at cases of trans boys wanting to compete with the boys, but being made to compete with girls instead.

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/transgender-wrestler-competes-against-girls-forced-mack-beggs-texas-america-a8227601.html

    This trans boy wrestler was forced to compete with the girls because that is the gender on his birth certificate. In spite of his own wishes that he wants to compete with the boys instead.

    he was subject to a lawsuit by a group of parents attempting to block his participation.

    Rather than trying to get the boy to compete with the boys (as he wants), they try to block him from competing at all. This is what it comes down to. They just don't want trans people to participate in society.

      They were afraid of losing.

      Nothing humiliates like losing to those you are bigoted against.
