alt Hacker NewsThe issue is that “woman’s sports” is itself intentionally discriminatory. That the issue of discrimination comes up is to be expected.
The idea of competitive sports exists in a framework of discrimination means that you will always have unhappy people.
The good news is that sports, for the most part, is mostly symbolic, and rarely affects ones livelihood.

Assuming you have already procured food and shelter, everything important in your life is symbolic.

Unfortunately pointless, mostly symbolic things attract the most hysterical reactions from people.

Just about anything competitive is discriminatory. People are disadvantaged by genetics, disability/health issues, age, wealth inequality, and more.
But as a society we love competitive activities, so the best we can do is come up with rules to try and impose a reasonable amount of fairness.
