Here are several thoughts I have. If you use hormone blocking drugs you need to start before puberty. What child at 10 or 11 year old can decide on gender, something they understand little to nothing about? There is a reason 11and 12 year olds can’t marry, can’t sign contracts, etc. I think this is a bit like the castrato, singers who were cantered before puberty except you are using chemicals instead of a knife, it is cruel. The other point is trans gender males who enter the trans state from male to female only lose 5% of muscle mass and the lung volumes are still above female ranges. It is recommended trans females be tested as males other wise pathological tests for males score as low normal for females. Babies in the uterus are prepped by nature for the sexual role they will play, other wise we would not be able to tell boy babies from female babies.

And transmen are winning against men. Oh no.

So when a trans man beats a cis man, it is not an issue - they won despite a DIS advantage. Likewise when a cis women beats a trans woman.

1SG (Join to see) - Patricio Manuel has a professional record of 1 and 0. He had ONE FIGHT in 2018. He said then "This wasn't a one-show, this wasn't a publicity stunt." Yet he never returned to the ring.
He fought his opponent - got his 15 minutes, and has yet to fight again. He fought one professional bout against a nobody, won by decision, and has not fought ever again. And the guy he beat? At the time of the fight, Hugo Aguilar was 0-5 with 2 of those losses coming by KOs. Since that time, Aguilar has fought three more times (and remember, Manual has not had ANY more fights in this time frame). Of those three, Aguilar lost another 2 fights. His only win was his most recent fight, a KO against a guy who was, himself, a perennial loser (18-32 record).
Manuel fought one professional fight, against a guy who is technically a professional - but is a professional loser.
That is *hardly* a case for "see trans men are just as good as cis men," let alone a case for "see trans women *don't* have an advantage over cis women."

MSG Joseph Cristofaro - I know plenty of transmen and women who can beat up men. Like I said, the big stinks only come up when transwomen win and never when they lose.
