The first pic on the top link makes me feel so sorry for the girl being pinned. A transman has just taken his second girls state wrestling title. He looks like a very stocky muscular man due to testosterone treatment. Transwomen compete against female wrestlers, but transmen may not compete against male wrestlers. Once again, it's something girls and women alone must make way for (like the toilet situations in colleges now where you have the Men's toilets and the Everyone Else toilets.) And as long as men and boys are not being inconvenienced, this movement will continue to steamroller over girls and women.

Actually, it seems they have to wrestle according to sex on birth certificate, unless transition has gone far enough for birth certificate to be changed in court. So it may be that transwomen have to compete against boys, I can't find information on that.

"No matter who you put in front of me, I'm a champion"

Bet she won't say that if she ever does wrestle with an actual man. There's likely to be a huge difference.

Also, how is it fair that "her" testosterone is legal but non trans identified girl's is not?

Ridiculous.
