Obviously this won’t work for all sports, but things like football, track, soccer, it would allow for de-gendered team, even allowing athletes with the skills but not the genetically-endowed physical attributes to have a place to play.

Note: I know very little about sports and being on a sports team, so please point out anything that doesn’t make sense.

    To the same level as male/trans athletes in the same class?

    “How much weight should a woman put on to compete in the welterweight class against a trans athlete?”

      You’ve missed the point… There is NO amount of drugs that can equate the function of male puberty for a female. No matter how much steroids you give them. There is no “equal” hormone levels to get equality.

        I get that, but it will probably get closer than classing people by weight.
