[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there should just be XX swimming and XY swimming.  That's it.

Ok, for the one in a million XXY or whatever, I don't really care.[/quote]

This isn't completive swimming. This is rec league. Save the strict rules for when it actually matters if you believe it's about fairness for girls. Let everybody swim on their neighborhood teams however they want.[/quote]

People with Y chromosome don't belong in women's sports is going to be sad to Griner in the WNBA, you don't belong there.  Yes, it is.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brittney_Griner 6'8" and dunks in games, nah there's no advantage there.
However, kids that have this problem should get used to it sooner than later.  Somone sometime has to tell them no, you need to play with the boys.  You don't want to be that parent with a college level degenerate man that thinks he's supposed to play with the girls.

I think it is odd though that the Olympics tends to be OK with Y chromosomes but regulates testosterone instead.  Doesn't make anysense to me.  I kind of get it though.  I don't think it's OK for the standard to be that women athletes need to take testosterone supplements or something to compete.  Defective testosterone regulation could be an issue reproductively speaking.  But, they regulate testosterone, but not Y chromosomes.  That is weird.  They should both be regulated. IMO it is a gendered activity.[/quote]
