No, no man would say he's a girl if he wasn't. If a woman was born in a man's body then she has every right to participate in said competition.

What if that body, just the body, is 100% male and thus has clear biological competitive advantages?

The body isn't male though. A woman is anyone who identifies as a woman.

No, if a woman is a woman then she is biologically a woman. What's so hard to understand about this?

Science distinguishes between sex and gender. Thanks.

Science is, in fact, silent on that topic. Thanks.
