You think that it's a "privilege" for women not to have to see d!cks when they're changing?
Of course, if cis women can freely expose their vaginas and boobs, it’s rather unreasonable to demand that just the peniled women cover up, so it can only be a privilege, not a right for the cis.
Well, you're wrong so I don't care. Are you so ideologically devoted that you're blind to reality?
I am not ideologically devoted. You are.
"Biological sex" can be defined in at least four different ways: chromosome, reproductive organs, genitalia, and secondary sex characteristics. Those four do not always match with one another. And in the sports world, the fourth one is the most important.
A person with CAIS and a person with 5-ard both have XY chromosomes and internal testes. Neither is born with a penis. One is eligible for women's sports and the other is not. The crucial difference is whether they have functioning androgen receptor.
But what is the difference between a person with CAIS and a trans woman who started transition before puberty? Both have XY chromosomes. Both have female secondary sex characteristics. Both were born with testes, one inside, and the other outside. One was born with a penis, and the other was born without a penis.
Does a penis give any advantage in athletic competitions? Does it matter whether someone's testes are inside or outside of her body? There is no scientific evidence to suggest either. So we should assume those differences do not matter in athletics competitions.
Another difference is one was raised as a girl from birth, and the other was raised as a boy up to a certain point in life. Once again, that difference is irrelevant in athletic competition.
that person is 16. 16 yr olds have no clue what they want or who they are, and whatever they 'decide' can and will change at a whim.
Most kids have stable gender identity by age 4, and it persists into puberty, it is very likely to be permanent. Your statement is not supported by science.

The biological male. Sorry that facts trigger you.
The biological male? I don't see any. I see a trans girl with low testosterone level who had never gone through male puberty. If testosterone gives an advantage in sports, she does not have any advantage.
Biological males have many advantages over women. Larger hand size, foot size, arm size and strength, calf size, larger lung size and much more. A trans girl even with low testosterone still has about 10 times the amount of testosterone than the lowest biological woman.

"Larger hand size, foot size, arm size and strength, calf size, larger lung size and much more."
Aren't they results of having gone through male puberty? And why are you comparing trans girl with the "lowest biological woman"? What's the testosterone level of the highest or the average "biological women." (A misnomer as I explained above.)
The normal range of testosterone among women without DSD is between 0.5 and 2.4 nmol/L. Ten times the lowest level would be 5 nmol/L, which is not allowed under the WA's new policy. Trans girls under HRT usually have t-level under 2.5 nmol/L. Or at least that's what the doctor tries to achieve.

I meant to say the lowest biological male has ten times as much testosterone than the highest biological female. I got mixed-up going back and forth to different websites about this. Sorry about this and sorry but it is not fair in any form of competition where strength and endurance matters.
There’s only two genders. Simple. You’re born as one and it can’t be changed. Insane this even has to explained.
That's a fine explanation of why trans people need to transition. To expand, trans people are those who are born with a gender identity (subconscious sense of what their primary and, later, secondary sex characteristics "should" be) that doesn't match their anatomy and physiology. There's no known way to change their gender identity, and its existence out of sync with their body creates the distress known as gender dysphoria. Modifying their bodies through hormones, surgeries, and sometimes other treatments allows them to be happier and live better lives.
I never expected that someone named "liberals are gross" would be such a good trans ally, but hey, any support is good.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure you knew whether you were a boy or a girl at age 16, and that your understanding of that hasn't changed. If it has changed, it's almost certainly because you're trans and hadn't realized it yet, but have now.
Yall werid on both sides they need to have their own category separate from what they don't want to be & from what they think they are. Facts it shouldn't be hard to figure this out. I personally could care less on what one self wants to do. Facts is they arent & wont ever be the other regardless of what they try to do remove or add its just not going to happen. Give them their own category already its simple no need to thank me
