They have a Y chromosome - they are male. They may have female external genetalia, they may have been mis-sexed at birth, they may have lived as girls - but females they aren't. They are not simply women with long legs, big biceps and a long reach.
Seb Coe seems to be in the running to be the next leader of the IOC - he seems more inclined to sort this out.

Well, as if to outdo the Olympics in the wokery stakes, Italian father of two Valentina Petrillo is competing in the women's 400m T12 race at the Paralympics.
I guess at least he won't be injuring the female competitors in the boxing ring - and it seems he has been allocated separate changing facilities.
Those that the Gods would destroy they first make mad.

Nope - no doubt. Ditto Caster Semenya and the Chinese boxer too.
Yes, it is sad for these men to have gender dysphoria - but that doesn't mean that the safety of their female opponents should ever be endangered.
The IOC have much to answer for - making a sport out of a man beating up a woman.
