As I said we're not at the right place at the moment. As of yet there hasn't been any real studies to show/quantify any advantage transwomen have over cis women in sports. By doing so then perhaps some sort of rating can be given and this considered against a range of physical parameters such as height and weight for example. Or would
any advantage from being born male not be tolerated?
For the sake of argument - In elite shot put a normal sizes transwoman's innate biological advantage would be more than cancelled out by Valerie Adams physical size advantage.
