Is this fair?

The point of being transgender is that the "brain wiring" already matches up with the other gender. Everything that is soft tissue (muscle, fat, etc.) is reshaped and redistributed through hormone therapy.

If your only point is bone structure, what of cis women who have larger bone structures? That does happen. Is it just as unfair for them to compete? Should we kick them out?

( I looked and couldn't find anything, but that doesn't mean I have access to all the info)
