It's not about being "hardly complicated", it's about refusing to play this crazy game.

Then ignore it. I personally find it all fascinating. And, some of the kindest, most thoughtful people I know are transgender.
They also have very thick skin, but then they have to.

I have transgender friends.
They are very protective of who they are.
There is no way they would make a scene to draw attention to themselves.

And a 50 year old guy wanting to stay around in the locker room when girls change, is more than questionable.

...The ones missing out are the kids if everyone went home that day. This is how tyrants learn they can get away with things. You don't win against them by backing down, you stand up to them and face them upfront.
I was not raised as someone that backs down and goes home if someone wants to ruin my day.

This is the scary 50-year-old transgender swimmer.

Professor
York University
Department of Psychology
Melody Wiseheart heads the Cognitive Flexibility Lab at York University. We study methods for improving educational outcomes, including the spacing effect. Currently, we are investigating whether the spacing of learning episodes can improve development and long-term retention of critical thinking skills in STEAM fields, such as physics, mathematics, computer programming, and musical performance. Recent studies investigated whether spacing was beneficial to improving media literacy skills, including website evaluation. Other recent studies examined song learning, including melody and lyric retention, and piano playing.
He's gross.

Are your transgender friends exposing their genitals in locker rooms near vulnerable young girls? Not to mention exploiting key biological advantages, but that's a separate ethical dilemma.

Maybe there could be a compromise between our two ideas, on the competitive side: not go home but just don't acknowledge any wins and totally ignore the official rating and go parallel until the swimmers associations react. And they will react, for the same reason you think it's good idea to go home.

Still with you defending this. He is not a transsexual.
He is a She.
I'll go with how She defines herself.
