So I can hide it for awhile, probably until I have noticable boobs lol. But, its hard to know how hrt will affect my performance. And then there's the issue with if I'm still really competitive, what does that say for trans women in sport? I can solve the coming out problem, but the sport problem is much harder.

People are sometimes incredibly unaware of things. I think for most people, they have to be un-ignorable for some to notice. Granted, if you aren't overweight and have thin and tight uniforms, that might be a lot earlier.
That was more more concern. A lot of people talk about pretty quickly noticing difference in their physical abilities. Personally, I've been surprised by the lack of drop-off. But I almost never strength train and I think some sports have 2+ year requirements of taking HRT (which I don't meet that requirement).
The fact that its so politicized sucks. Like, even if somehow you disproved all kinds of research suggesting otherwise, I think learning more would be a cool outcome in a vacuum.
