There are no trans women athletes at the Paris Olympics. So bigots manufactured them.

I don't know exactly if the anatomy of trans women is similar to that of non-trans women. I'm ignorant about this. However, if there are equal conditions, it can happen in trances. If there are no equal conditions, I think it can be opened to a separate category. Why shouldn't there be an extra category of trans women or trans men next to men and women?

Because trans women are women, and trans men are men. Why shouldn't there be a category for women with pcos?
Current science actually shows that trans women perform worse than cis women in several categories and identical in others. Which correlates with the fact that in the 20 years that trans women have been allowed to compete in the olympics, not a single one has made it there. It was a small study and needs to be expanded upon, but is still better evidence than what any of the reactionary bans have.
Here's a link to an article that includes a link to the actual study https://www.outsports.com/2024/4/12/24091267/transgender-athletes-study-research-science-sports-governing-bodies/
Why. Just reduce it to a single category.
Hell yeah, men VS women, let's go!
