it makes me ask the question, are they having a sex change because they want to be a different sex , or because they want to be a winner ?

Part of me wonders how much of this is fueled by the everyone's a winner mentality we've taken up, and then some kids find out that they actually aren't a winner. Then you add the social media explosion of transgenderism into the mix and it doesn't really seem that bad to take this route to becoming a winner.

It's also on the rise because traditionally it's a phase children go through and grow out of, but today we have to immediately accept a child is transgender and make it permanent.

3 x Commonwealth Games gold medallist Tamsyn Manou (née Tamsyn Lewis) tells Ben Fordham it’s concerning many women feel they can’t speak out about the issue.
“The female category isn’t being protected enough in elite women’s sport at the moment.
“I know that it’s a grey area… but it really concerns me.
“I think that it’s important that people understand it’s not about gender identity. This is an issue that is surrounding what you were born as, biologically what your sex is.
“There is just way too much advantage with a male competing against a female.”
But we do know without a doubt that our biological sex is stamped throughout our entire body, and cannot be changed -- not hormonally, not surgically. Including the increased physical strength and endurance of the male body.
