So... For those not in the know, there is an ongoing battle, at the very least in the United States where I happen to live if not elsewhere, for trans athletes to compete in sports as the gender they identify with. The media here is rather focused on trans women and women's sports, and I do not know if this is the case for trans men and men's sports as well.
I would like to see data in both instances. Is there any actual advantage/disadvantage that trans athletes, be they men, women, or anything in between, face in the categories they wish to compete in? How are they faring in comparison to their cis counterparts in the locations and events where they are already allowed to compete in their desired categories?
I would Google this myself, but Google being Google, the algorithm is proving to be rather... cryptic for me. I don't know where to look for this information.
