It's a much complex one. The fact that there are a lot of discussions around it shows it's not an easy topic and there are a lot of emotions around it.
I'm not arguing on whether trans people should be allowed or not, but we just can't brush off such a sensitive social issue by saying "This has always been like that so it can't be changed". Society is changing, perceptions are changing etc So let's all try to listen to what everybody has to say in a gently manner.

No-one would argue that sports should have barriers to entry such as skill and ability, but sex should also be an accepted barrier. Biological women have no chance against transwomen in competitive sports.
