I was hoping to get an answer like 15%. (Which I btw would be fine with as those women should have trained harder).
This is what you said:

And here's the conversation that transpired:

So, all that has been said is that we don't know of anyone that is "fully supportive of trans people winning races for serious prize money." I don't have an issue with it if that's how they decide to structure the race, but there may also be events where it makes sense to structure the races with rules around transgender participation, a separate category, what have you. Happy to let adults sort out how they want to run their races, knowing there will be some **** ups now and then, and they'll have to figure it out.
To put it another way, if someone decides to organize an amateur event with rules that allow transgender women to enter and win women's events, then why would there be a number where that would become unacceptable? The organizers might have one, and then they can change the rules if they like.
