The best solution is to stop segregating sports into male and female teams. Have one team for each sport open to everyone. Women say they are equal to men, so why should they object.?
Transgender British athletes born as men set to make Olympic history
july 2 2016 Two British athletes born male are on the verge of making history by competing in women’s events at next month’s Olympic Games, The Mail on Sunday can reveal.
If selected, the unnamed pair will become the world’s first transgender Olympians at Rio.
Their gender status is known to the organisations governing their sports but not to rivals from other nations.
The Mail on Sunday can reveal that dramatic changes to International Olympic Committee guidelines have given hope to transgender athletes across the world.
New rules mean they can now take part in the Games without having reassignment surgery.
Instead, competitors born male need only declare themselves female and demonstrate that their testosterone level has been below a specified point for a year.
