We already answered the question with athletes who look and feel female, have enlarged breasts , vaginas,  and clitorises,  but also y chromosomes and consequently no uteruses or eggs.  No sperm or penises either come to that.  Most of them found out they were xy after sports testing not before.  Yet they were not allowed to compete as women. Why? Because the rule was genetic.  But gonads and breasts aside these women had the height and musculature of men so the rule does not seem horribly unfair provided they are allowed to compete as men.

But there are XX-chromosome-women who are too strong for other women to compete against. Should we also have them feel insulted and compete as men?

It seems the woman under discussion isn't so powerful that she can compete against men with ease; she's just simply a very strong woman. Plus, it's volleyball, a team sport. It's not enough to have one strong player to dominate the sport. And who knows how accurate the article is anyway?

Quote:We use some others such as age.

Despite the various unfair advantages that may manifest in various age groups due to height and such. I mean, some kids are just too tall (or too physically strong or agile) compared to peers of the same age group.

Ah, check this article:

Quote:Abreu played in men’s leagues in Brazil, Portugal, France, Indonesia, Spain, France, Holland and Belgium. In 2012, the volleyball player decided to stop her career and become a woman.

In Italy, She went through hormonal treatment to control the levels of testosterone in her blood stream, had sex reassignment surgery and changed all her previous identification to her new name.

Soon after, she was informed she could play again.
