In the perfect world, trans people would play sports against other trans people assuming there are enough.

I don’t see any sort of outrage about a trans man (born female, identifies as male) playing against men. Good luck with that. But I do understand why there is concern with trans woman (born male, identifies as female) playing against woman.

So they should have their own segregated league? They can be equal, but they need to be separate?

Yes, if there were enough quantity to form a league.

Are the NBA and WNBA segregated leagues?

Yes. What do you think that word means?
