Men don’t have to do this, but FTM athletes, or any other athletes who take testosterone for medical reasons, are normally barred from competitions as a result. Because we are already banned from most sports, we don’t need to be added into thes3 laws, but simply overturning explicit bans on trans people won’t allow us to compete either. What we really need is an overhaul of sports to make them based on things besides assumed sex.
