    They CAN compete if they transition before the age of 12.

    I wondered about that as well.

    Who in the world would subject his kid to hormones and surgery at age 9?

    Plenty of folks who seem to prioritize their own feeling of boundless tolerance and wokeness at the expense of their kid's mental health, and physical health too, I guess.

      I wonder about the politics around doing real psychological studies of the efficacy of gender transformation in creating happy, healthy, well adjusted people. Would it even be possible to study this, or is it third rail?

      Education is extremely important.

        We know that 80-90% of cases of pubescent and prepubescent Gender Dysphoria do resolve themselves within a few years as the child goes through puberty. To introduce Puberty Blockers and Transitioning Therapies (both medical and psychological) is NOT Gender Affirming Care. In fact, it is abuse and is putting these children at great risk.

            No, it’s Ideology Affirming.

              One thought that occurred to me when I typed that was “It IS gender affirmative, but only to the adults that put transitioned themselves.” They need to see a huge number of kids transition in order to feel normal.

                That’s quite a sinister spin, but sadly probably accurate.
