Just in case you thought this was about trans athletes. This was solely about creating a fascist and racist gender bureaucracy over what constitutes being feminine enough to be considered a woman.
They're targeting cis women who may be intersex and banning them from sport.

It’s just plain stupid to encourage our most experienced controllers to quit, given the job’s rigorous training requirements and the shortage of controllers.
We should be trying to retain our most experienced controllers, not slandering them and pushing them to leave their careers early.

Safety has no gender.
The sex, or chromosomal status of an athlete does not create any inherent danger or risk to safety. Rather, it is disparities in strength, speed & endurance and/or physique of each individual athlete that may, depending on the sport.

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.
