If it's such a big deal, why not separate by ability rather than sex? We already have weight classes in some sports. Make it so only people who exhibit a certain amount of strength or whatever is relevant to the sport can participate.

Because not all of us want to see an end to female professional sports. From athletics to contact sports to solo and team sports if we separate by ability this will guarantee women get even less space to compete at the highest levels.

But you can still be at the highest level in whatever category you're in. Just like when you separate by sex.
