Transgender athletes are being subjected to severe anger but a simple way to address the development of “genderless” sports could be a handicap System, similar to golf.
Each sport — swimming, basketball, track, etc. — could have handicap levels for each participant.
A transgender swimmer with a handicap of 5, for instance, could have 5 seconds added to his or her score. A basket ball participant with a handicap of 5 might have 5 points reduced from his or her personal scoring for their team, and so on.
This system might be the way for every gender to participate simultaneously in every sport.
