You know what the word transgendered means? That's the problem I think you're looking for.
Or are you saying these kids shouldn't be allowed to play, because technically they aren't "boys" or "girls"...

They all have a gender on their birth certificate.
If they dont want that one anymore, then find other people with the same issue to compete against.

What if the doctor says they were born with two sets of sex organs?

But then again, I respect your right to say dumb things just as I respect transgendered kids rights to be treated fairly. What can I say? I'm a giver...

If a hermaphrodite wants to compete in a sport, in the interest of fairness, that athlete would probably be best suited to compete as a male. jmho.
The fact that we are not talking about hermaphrodites here, is just more straw to stuff in your argument.

Sometimes I'd agree. Sometimes I'm sure I wouldn't. All I'm saying is it's best to leave it up to their parents and the local community to decide.

Are we talking about youth sports or professional athletes?

I only mention it because on an Olympic soccer team, 1/3 of the players won't see the field. Does that make it okay to bench 1/3 of the players on a local AYSO team? Is that how we're making these choices now?

Yes, keep on lying, roughly my ass.

  1. How many people are born intersex?
    An estimated 1 in 2,000 children born each year are neither boy nor girl -- they are intersex, part of a group of about 60 conditions that fall under the diagnosis of disorders of sexual development (DSD).

Okay let's use your numbers... 1 per 2000. So in a nation of 300,000,000+, enough children are born intersex every year to fill how many soccer rosters?

You are using only one part of intersex not the whole range that considers not just visible genital differences but chromosome differences..
