Is this wrong?
Trans girls are girls!
Trans women are women!
Sure, but aren't trans women at an advantage since they at least had male physiology?
No. Trans women's bodies lose a lot of muscle on HRT and more often than not, have less testosterone than their cisgender counterparts. Basically a tall trans woman is big boned at best.
There are also plenty of cis women with larger body structures and muscles than many cis men, let alone much stronger than most trans women.
