"The annual Marymoor Grand Prix kicked off on Friday at the Jerry Baker Memorial Velodrome with at least three transgender athletes taking part in a 2-person relay of the Elite Women’s division.
According to results made available on Jerry Baker Memorial Velodrome’s website, the top three teams each had one biological male. They included Jordan Lothrop, Jenna Lingwood and Eva Lin."

what a coincidence.
what are the chances that the top three teams in a womans cycling relay race all contained biological males?
Trans people are mentally ill people and should have the same rights as other mentally ill people.
i agree...however those "rights" should not infringe on anyone elses "rights."
you mean the same rights as other "people"...correct?
Yes, equal to only other trans competitors in a trans only competition.
'They' WHO? And 'force' ???? Hardly how a 'free' society works!
Now, if some schools *choose* to host teams for these people as part of a league, and it is all voluntary, I'm fine with that. If they really want to play, they can *choose* to attend one of those schools. But no school should be forced to cater to any particular class of student-athletes.
Think of it this way – would you force a school to host a 'team' for golfers if there's only one person attending that school who wants to play that sport? Would you force every school to host an archery team? Lacrosse? Badminton? Shuffleboard? Curling?
Should we force liberal arts colleges to teach STEM courses? Should we should force MIT to offer liberal arts degrees?
Maybe we could stop trying to force colleges to cater to every last person. Maybe we could take force out of the equation.
Have you read the Republican Party platform?

title IX simply says you cant discriminate on the basis of sex. at least thats what it used to say until joe decided to rewrite it.
The WNBA will collapse. Young girls who were biologically female at birth will be relegated to never winning elite swimming contests, soccer, softball, cycling, weightlifting, etc. That seems the opposite of what Title IX sought to achieve for female athletes.
Yep....RTCG, if anything you are dependable.
If man can survive
If women are still alive
When both will be the same
And all will hide their blame
Then the devil,he will be king In year 2050,what will it bring
People tired of their fears Living hard ,only crying tears
Worry not,even as we stray
God always, leads the way
With the devil ‘s end, let all sing
Look at all the good today to defeat the bad of yesterday Paths of pain we must try learn not to follow .all that lie.
This is just a test of our times. Many will accept it - Others will see it for what it really is.I refuse to live in a LIE .
That last part is key. Not sure why these schools are receiving funding from the federal government. But refusing to take that money might free them up to adopt positions more in keeping with their philosophies. You don't actually *have to* suck the government teat...
im totally on board with title iv...as it was originally intended.
having said that...isnt it interesting how the most intelligent among us are constantly railing about the fact that sex is not gender...now apparently for the purposes of title IV...gender is sex.
fortunately...bidens rewrite is an executive order and will surely be reversed if trump (or any other republican) is elected.
…and many private schools do just that.
That is completely irrelevant to my point…which is the propensity of some to insist that gender isn’t sex…until it’s convenient to conflate the two for political purposes.
You’d think they’d be tripping over their tongues to point that out…like they take every opportunity to do here.
Go figure…
"Protect against all sex-based harassment and discrimination.>/b> The final rule protects all students and employees from all sex discrimination prohibited under Title IX, including by restoring and strengthening full protection from sexual violence and other sex-based harassment. The rule clarifies the steps a school must take to protect students, employees, and applicants from discrimination based on pregnancy or related conditions. And the rule protects against discrimination based on sex stereotypes, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex characteristics"

"At the time of their disqualifications, the president of the International Boxing Association, which governs the World Boxing Championships, alleged that the boxers’ chromosome tests came back as XY (women typically have two X chromosomes, while men typically have an X and a Y chromosome).
“Based on DNA tests, we identified a number of athletes who tried to trick their colleagues into posing as women,” the association’s president, Umar Kremlev, told Russia’s Tass news agency at the time. “According to the results of the tests, it was proved that they have XY chromosomes. Such athletes were excluded from competition.”
wow...what could possibly go wrong?
maybe if somone gets killed or suffers brain damage this will finally end.
