        How would you propose biological sex be determined in girls’ sports?

        Comparatively underdeveloped brains? Testicles precariously placed for maximum injury? I’ll give you that members of the female gender commonly have looser/stretchier skin and potentially lower muscle density.

        But also the girls I grew up with, grew faster and were taller than the boys at the same age. Eventually we caught up, but there was a period in there where playing sports against the girls my age gave them an advantage. Maybe 200,000+ years of human evolution already mostly solved this problem, and it’s not actually about protecting children, but being an asshole to trans kids.
