Sorry CL it's not common sense we have already been over this . It does not matter how many times you repeat it your still wrong . And no crying SJW at every comment will not work . This has F all to do with that. There is zero evidence trans men or woman have a significant advantage neither you or any proponent of that position were able make a case .

The Anti-LGBT crowd refuses to recognize anything that isn't their definition of normal. (Which is mainly talking to an invisible man in the sky who talks back to them sometimes. Hearing voices in my world isn't normal) Though I suppose it's a good thing they show their ignorance, so we can know to ignore them and their stupidity.
Secondly, Tiffany Abreu was actually very talented before she transitioned. She won several trophies before transitioning. After transitioning, her testosterone levels reached low enough levels for legal competition in the women's league. She didn't transition because she couldn't compete in the men's tournament. She transitioned because she was born the wrong sex. If this invisible man of yours really exists, he fucked up royally with Ms. Abreu and all the other transgender individuals in the world.
I see no problem with her competing in the women's league, as long as her testosterone levels have reached the appropriate level. Whatever advantages she has from her per-transitional period are offset by disadvantages from that same transition. Ideally, she would have transitioned earlier in life, which would have minimized any advantages she might have. Of course our good Christian friends don't want that because the idea of transgender people freaks them out. Just like gay people do--only now they know we're not going to be readily accepting of their hate. They hope that we'll just accept their transgender hate (because they have to hate someone, right? How else will they show how Christian they are?)

Sports are separated by sex, not gender, or at least that's how it should be (unless a bio woman is good enough to compete against the men, then go right ahead). Yes, that might not be fair to the trans women when it comes to sports, but life's not fair, and that's something they should already know very well, seeing as they were born the wrong sex.
Except as mh pointed out the link in the OP doesn't have enough facts to formulate an informed opinion on this matter. (It reads more like a click-baity editorial.) Did the volleyball player go through reassignment surgery or are they on hormones?
Any conclusion reached with such spotty information is tenuous at best.
