If a law abiding citizen wants to buy a gun...............None of my business.
If said person is careful and responsible with their guns.....None of my business.
If two consenting adults want to have sex......None of my business.
If a woman wants an abortion......None of my business.
If someone needs to change their gender....None of my business.
If a transgender person wants to compete in sports......None of my business.

I am with you on all of that.  On the last two science is starting to speak.  If you are an adult and you want to, change your gender.

As far as sports FINA which is the governing body for international swimmers just put in place a policy that says a trans athlete must have transitioned before age 12 to compete in women’s events.   The science is telling them that going thru puberty as a male give them an advantage.

So, if they wish to compete they either have to compete in the birth gender, or in the open category, or have to prove they have not experienced any part of male puberty beyond Tanner Stage 2 or before age 12, whichever is later."
