Huha,  Men have higher threshold for pain perseverance.. We could give birth to quintuplets and still not  cry about it..

On a serious note... what if a well built guy get the surgery and stuff, is declared a legal female... and rips through the ladies golf or tennis tour, earning a fortune? 

With the huge rewards in sport, this seem inevitable? 

And from a legal view, i don't think they could ban them...

I would like to see the best female players compete against the best men players.

Hou Yifan has stopped playing in women tournaments..  She's the unarguably best female  chess player that ever lived..  She had played against Magnus, her record stands at 0 1 -5.. Win zero drawn one and lost 5..  

Judit Polgar is unarguably the best female chess player (2735 and world #8 at her peak, while Hou hasn't cracked 2700 or top 50).  Hou could have gotten close at least (still might) had she wasted about 5 fewer years on playing 2300-2400s all the time, with the occasional 2500, just because they happened to be women.

Already happened.  Renee Richards.  Maybe didn't quite rip through the tour, but she did make a major final or two back in the day.

Perhaps a few beast from the east, if you get my drift...
