I'll be surprised if "the most controversial athlete in America" (per Sports Illustrated) is going to get a lot of business opportunities and cash because of that decision.
Lia also admitted to aiming for the Olympics. (Not a surprising admission, as its a fairly common goal). Right up until this week, that was a solid possibility in women's sports, and a distant dream in men's. This all goes back to my point. They chose the "side" that was more likely to help them achieve thier goals.
Just because the international organization has NOW shut the door on them, doesn't change what the decision looked like when it was made.

They aren't pretending to have a female gender (in general; maybe there are some exceptions).
While you are at it, you should complain that homosexuals don't seem very gay to you. Some of them seem downright depressed.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
Than a fool in the eyes of God

Atheism is the cult of death, the death of hope. The universe is doomed, you are doomed, the only thing that remains is to await your execution...
