Sadly, if it becomes known, like Michelle Dumaresq there in that article, they immediately cry to outrage over an advantage.

I'm no doubt PAIS grade 1, I have a very small female-like body, never could build any muscles, despite normal levels of testosterone, could not grow tall (I'm 5'6") or even have a portion of a 'Man's strength' but all this wouldn't matter to the name callers. I'd be XY and so 'a man' to them.

On another level, there are those who don't compete in sports, but in beauty/talent that receive scorn in the same way, like Ha-Ri-Su, a 32 years old MtF born in Thailand who lives in Japan who does modeling/acting/singing, what stands out isn't her ability but that 'she used to be a man' (frankly, given how she looks, it's very doubtful - she might have been IS too, or simply very lucky).
