“I can not think of one common sense reason to allow males to compete against females in sports.”
What about the shooting sports? Pistol shooting anyway.
I don’t engage in shooting as a sport, so I don’t know much about it.
Hmmm.... I do not know if women compete equally with men in shooting sports. There may be some type of fatigue factor that comes into play.
-Nonetheless-
One sport should not set the rule for all sports.
I can see allowing women to compete against men if they want to, say maybe golf? But not visa-versa.
OK. I couldn’t resist. I did some research and found this.

Men DO perform better in pistol shooting than women by a small margin. BUT the number of male competitors is way larger than women. And drawing from a lager of pool of competitors may be the reason.
Now, what about Curling?
