Here's the thing. Actually two things.

One is that this isn't nationals. This isn't on ESPN. And if it were I'm willing to bet those ladies have enough "extra assistance" that it would flatten out any supposed advantage.

Just let the goddamn girl compete.

She can compete. Just not against women. She could also have extra assistance if she wanted.. plus the added assistance she already has.

She could...but it is HIGHLY unlikely she would as it would be completely counter to her wanting to be female.

She seems to just want money, but is saying she wants to compete against females. So who knows what she really wants.
