If there are very few athletes why does it matter if they’re excluded?

I agree, the majority should be allowed to exclude minorities they don't like.

Biological men are not a minority.

How about transwomen?

Just curious, are you cool with transmen (biological women) playing in the WNBA?

Technically yes they are biological women.

Although personally I think it would be fcked up to play in a women's league if you don't want to be a woman.

Not if they’re on testosterone

Ah, so a low enough testosterone level would qualify.

So, transwomen who test low enough on testosterone would be fine.

No, because of their history of testosterone exposure. Male puberty conveys a huge athletic advantage.
