Male trans athletes are banned from women's categories in swimming (only exception male swimmers who transitioned before age of 12) . FINA ( World swimming’s governing body!) proposed to make separate categories for transwomen and transmen which is both inclusive and fair.

Some light at the end of the tunnel,at last.

However, the ruling would seemingly exclude University of Pennsylvania swimmer Lia Thomas from elite competition.

Women's elite competition.

The IOC urged shifting the focus from individual testosterone levels and calling for evidence to prove when a performance advantage existed.

No sh#t IOC. It is a disgrace you relied only on testosterone levels to allow competition of males in female categories. Especially when the testosterone levels for both trans male athletes and males with disorders of sexual development like CAIS were higher than those permitted for women.
