There is no such thing as "trans." There is no such thing as "transgender." There is no such thing as "trans" or "transgender" athletes.

These are men. Just men. Men with grown out hair (that's usually all they do), men in makeup, men in skirts. Some of these men take estrogen, some get surgeries. It changes nothing, their sex is the same, and the vast majority do not and never will pass as the opposite sex (even if they did, they're still men).

They do not enter a special category of existence for refusing to accept the reality of their sexed bodies.
