    I believe it’s done mainly to encourage women to play. More than any genetic differences like other sports.

    I feel like as it makes very little difference, so letting trans people play either doesn’t really matter.

      Except it’s going to discourage AMAB women from playing, so that excuse for this bigoted policy doesn’t hold water
