I don’t think anyone is denying that she has XY chromosomes.

If that’s the line you want to draw, fine. I don’t necessarily disagree. The fact is that this is not a simple case (as some pushing a particular agenda would have it) and there is no suggestion she has an advantage. She is not heavier. There is no evidence she benefited from enhanced testosterone levels during puberty. With that I wish you good night.
