A lot of people try to make the point that MtF individuals have a physical advantage due to growing up as a male.

I would counter that point by saying physical advantages exist all throughout sports, regardless of sex or gender. Someone like Romelu Lukaku has a massive physical advantage over someone like Joe Allen. Or someone like Van Dijk or Haaland vs Youri Tielemans. Should they not be allowed to play in the same league?
