Should we just abolish women's sport then and have only open competition?

I play women's sports and we're fine. Thanks.

At an elite level? Where it's your source of income? Where you stand to inspire young girls?

If women's sport is opened to biological males, it is only a matter of time until the top level is entirely dominated by biological males. In most physical sports college men regularly beat women's world records. It's just simply not fair.

Yes.
I work like other people.
Coaching and community events.
It's like you don't see women who happen to be trans as women.
Maybe your elementary school understanding of this isn't the best.
