it's not transphobia, it's just unfair to women in sport. He went through puberty to adulthood as a male, with all the testosterone to grow. Then says he's trans and competes in the women's division.
you should learn to play chess first before claiming "checkmate". So to you, any man, can claim to be a woman, enter into a boxing match, absolutely decimate the female opponent and that's fair, because they said they are a woman?
It depends on the state of the body. The police/medical examiner records sex based on the physical appearance of the body, especially the genitalia. If something points to the deceased being transgender (i.e. dress, gender reassignment surgery scars, etc) then it would surely be noted as potentially having bearing on the case. If the remains are skeletal, then sex is determined by comparing bone dimensions against established ranges (same with race). Note that as the ranges overlap, sex determination can be tricky. Regardless, it would be impossible to detect from bones alone that a person changed gender as an adult.

Well, I'm told that a woman is anyone who identifies as woman, so with that settled, surely it makes sense for a significantly stronger woman to have an advantage in a boxing match (assuming an appropriate weight class match up, and anything else like that)?
let's say a person forces a guy to wear a dress, kills them, dumps their body, they are now identified as transgender based on their clothing?
@garlog you're an idiot, so with that settled, we can move on
I would think that any decent investigator would take more than just the victim's clothing into account. Don't forget very often an autopsy is ordered too.

That's what I thought too, but I heard people with university degrees say otherwise. University degrees. Imagine how smart they must be, I can't imagine they're wrong.
