It's very simple. If you alter your gender, you must compete in the more challenging gender group.

This will mostly mean competing in men's groups, but there are some gymnastics where women perform better, I think.

You should be forced to compete as your sex, which is either male or female, and will never change. Even if a male Pretoria be a female, he should still be allowed to compete, but as a male.

Women who have started testosterone treatments to transition to male also have an advantage. Testosterone is a pretty damn effective performance enhancing drug.

That's why I say to let trans folks compete in the strongest field.
