In health research it's even more critical than matters of social activity like sport. Allowing such events is not social justice at all, it's the very opposite!
I gravely doubt you or many others would sit quietly and accept a female in your life gets displaced from any limited resource activity simply so a male who identifies as female can take a spot.
It's too easy to sit on the fence on these issues, too comfortable, and many do when they don't have a wife or daughter involved in the events. We been through this debate previously about transgender athletes, it's largely the same.
Females have suffered long enough under various forms of misogyny, much like the case being discussed, it was hard enough to compete for funding and opportunities against Bob, Frank and Harry, now they have to worry about Mary nee Fred!
