If you're referencing the posted article, that is absolutely not what we're "observing" right now, that claim is political propaganda from the American right-wing. Khelif is not trans.

I think the parent wasn’t suggesting this. I think that they suggested that in many strength-oriented disciplines biological women with the most masculine features (e.g. high testosterone level) will win.

No-one who's been making any serious commentary on this topic has claimed that Khelif is trans. That's not the issue at all.

What all the available evidence so far indicates is that Khelif is male, most likely with a difference of sex development (DSD).
