    Competing by sex is pretty pointless.

    It is true that the average male human has some physical advantages on the average female human.

    Otoh the variability amongst people of the same sex is wider than that average difference. This effect is reinforced in professional sports because it tends to attract outliers.

    And then for trans athletes, most of that difference gets smoothed by a well adjusted HRT applied fpr a few years.
