Trans-woman will still have the body type and hormones of a man, it would not be fair to the women who have worked for years and years to enter athletic tournaments/Olympics because a man who has worked the same will end up being stronger/faster than a woman. It’s not transphobic it basic biology. There should be a separate class for trans athletes.

  @Daboss2o1Conservative from Alberta  agreed…2yrs2Y

Yes. no matter what anyone says, the average Olympic woman CANNOT beat the average male athlete. It is just simple biology. And the thing is, female athletes agree with this statement too!

 @9FX7N8FNew Democraticfrom Ontario  agreed…2yrs2Y

I agree. As a biological woman it is upsetting to see that our gender has fought for the right to our own leagues and create our own teams to now have them taken over by biological males. It is even more upsetting when it takes away an achievement, award, or scholarship opportunity for a biological woman.

 @9FX9RDVdisagreed…2yrs2Y

Body types are diverse, sometimes by weight and build and other variables. I know women who could defeat cis men, I know trans men who could defeat trans women, I know trans women who could defeat cis men. Close the gap on gendered competitive sports and let's see who actually wins gold. Will cis men throw a fit if a trans man defeats them? Will it be considered more of a win if a cis woman defeats a trans woman? Who cares!

Would you say it would be fair if Lebron James, with the same body and athletic abilities was to have a gender changing surgery and play in the WNBA. Arguably the best basketball player of all time playing against less stronger, athletic, and smaller women basketball players. The same goes for any sport like powerlifting, where a male power lifter changing his gender and competing in women power lifting competitions. I would be completely un fair.

 @B36T6PFfrom Ontario  disagreed…2mos2MO

men are physically stronger, taller, and bigger meaning if they change genders and compete in other genders sports they will dominate because they are physically better.

 @9ZKGT67 from Ontario  disagreed…5mos5MO

They should not be playing in their changed gender sports. It is not fair for anybody, they should play in their birth genders.

 @9VDHRJRfrom Ontario  disagreed…7mos7MO

It wouldn't be fair to the women when a transgender male enters the competetion. An individual can also lie.

 @B477TS3from Ontario  disagreed…3wks3W

Imagine working your whole life to be an athetle, and all of that is taken away from you by a male/female competting against you.

 @9H2536Dfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

A trans man should not be aloud to compete with women because it is not physically fair to the other female competitors and there is the possibility of the trans athlete raping other female athletes.

 @9FBD9M5from Ontario  agreed…2yrs2Y

 @9F9JGCBfrom Ontario  disagreed…2yrs2Y

There are many genetic differences between a male and females therefore they should be treated based on their birth sex to prevent having men rule all sports.

 @9GH4VMJfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

That it would not be fair for all of the competeters that have trained so hard in their sport only to have a transgender person interfering with what oyu've worked so hard to acheive. Like a transgender man to woman on a womans swim team, it would be fair because men just naturally have a stranger upper torso than women. Meaning they have an easier way to win.

 @9GGSFGVfrom Ontario  disagreed…1yr1Y

It is unfair for women to see a grown man competing in women athelets logicly man has mroe strengh then women and more faster then women
