At a competitive, high level. Yes. Recreational sports? Children's sports? Just for fun sports? Of course not.
Professional? Yes. You should not be allowed to compete in the women's division, due to the fact that you went through puberty as a male. In my opinion.
I mean the question here is what advantage it confers me isn't it
No, that's not the question. And I think all of you are missing that point.
The question is what are the rules? And the rules are you need to be born a female and have had gone through puberty as a female to be eligible to compete in a females division of sports, because that's what the rules are. For everyone.
You can't just appeal to the rules in defence of those same rules
