Forgive my ignorance, but what is the “biological advantage” argument? Is it like… if you were assigned male at birth, but transition later in life, some people will try to argue that the trans person has a biological advantage?

The “biological advantage” is imagined bull manure. The short list of factors that assigned birth gender DOES impact omits boardgame skills.

Edit: gender

Not to mention, it impacts far fewer sports than many think, especially in high-level competition.

I’ve never heard the term itself, but is it referring to having more muscle mass due to higher levels of testosterone in men?

I think so. It also includes height, skeletal build, and supposedly bone density
