Keep Women Sports for Biologic Females
 

I'm pleased that Virginia has this petition and fully support it.  When testosterone starts being made, it changes the whole body. Injected Testosterone also does this.  Biological females do not have this. As a male reaches puberty, the hormone is able to influence increased muscle mass, a lower voice, and other obvious changes. Giving him extra female hormones does not erase those changes.
