Umm is the person in the correct weight class for this event? Yes. Okay next!
For the "men's" event, yes. Weight is the only restriction. Women should be able to fight in the men's event if they qualify.
For the women's classification there must be a clear line drawn somewhere between "has given birth" and "changed their name to Sue".
(I have no preference exactly where that line is drawn)
The youngest Olympian this year is a 12-year-old from China competing as a skateboarder. The youngest ever was an 11-year-old who competed in gymnastics.
Should we be letting those young girls know whether or not they count as girls through some sort of unspecified genetic test?
Why do you think women need to be protected by having to prove they're women? Do you really not get that tons of women would be discouraged from competing if they felt they had to satisfy some white knight's genetic criteria?

If there is no gender advantage there is no need.
Do you want to go further and say for skateboarding and gymnastics there should be no segregation?
Women do need segregation, for saftey more than anything. There needs to be a clear line otherwise these arguments will continue to occur.

So there's no need?

Women do not need your protection, nor have they asked for it.
Of course woman need the protection of their sporting governing bodies. That's their job.
You think women need protection and men don't. That's the issue here. You're being a white knight.
Governing bodies also provide safety regulations for men.
And yet you have never once mentioned how men need this same sort of protection. In fact, you've made it very clear that women need your protection.

I've not talked about horses or dogs either.
And now I am almost certain you're trolling.
What convinced you of this?
