Like the NPR article I linked before that you simply ignored?
You claimed it has literally never happened and I linked you 600 examples and now you're claiming not a single one of them is good enough for you? You sure it's me whose going on by feelings here?
Please, link me one of those scientific studies that you approve of that shows no difference and I'll look into it.
The NPR article is backing the official 2 year wait, that was implemented decades ago. Did you actually read through the site you linked me, it contains none of what you said it would and didn't support your point at all. I am worse off for having read it, but I actually did.

This last one is a pdf, but I highly recommend it. It's one of those "scientific studies I approve of that shows no difference". It actually concludes that a 1 year wait would likely be enough for almost all sports. https://cces.ca/sites/default/files/content/docs/2024-01/transgender-women-athletes-and-elitesport-a-scientific-review-en.pdf
