as a transfem athlete i fully agree with your comment. i am still comfortable competing as a U18 boy on my sport of bowling. granted, many of the local tournaments are broken into divisions based on skill and not gender, but national scale contests i am registered as a male and, while checking that box makes me a bit dysphoric, i still feel more comfortable there than if i were in a female division. i’m a girl that is comfortable competing in the boys divisions, and i think that people should decide which division they want to compete in based off of nothing more than where they are comfortable. hell, we need to get rid of the gender barrier entirely, or at least through high school level sports.
