Youth sports have a significant impact on the development of all children. Sports provide children opportunities to build their social skills and confidence, as well as improve their sense of belonging and physical fitness.
What happens to these spaces when adults are given permission to inspect a child’s body to determine their gender?
The Supreme Court rulings on Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.P.J. decided that transgender girls cannot play sports that align with their gender identity. Not only does this ruling essentially prohibit transgender kids from participating in most youth sports – codifying the exclusion this vulnerable population already experiences – it also puts all children at risk of the harmful consequences of body surveillance.
Oh, have you taken biology in university, too? Don’t talk down to me when you didn’t even read the entire article. The tests they supposedly used to verify her chromosomes were made up.
Do you believe there are 2 genders and nothing in between?
No, but that has nothing to do with this boxer. If anything, her experience reinforces the headline of the article I posted.
The fact there’s more than just 2 genders has nothing to do with this boxer??
Did. You. Read. The. Wiki? She’s a woman.
Do you feel the IOC should gender by Wikipedia?
What are you arguing anymore? Asking me ridiculous questions isn’t going to make your point any clearer.
Well in one post you seem to admit that gender is a spectrum and in the other you seem to cling to the idea that it’s binary (and decided upon by Wikipedia)
Don’t you think these are exclusive?
You saying that ‘gender as a spectrum has nothing to do with the Imane Khelif case’ sounds a lot more ridiculous to me than my questions lol
The only reason you would think the gender spectrum matters here, and that wikipedia enforces a gender binary, is if you massively missread both the article, the wiki and the sources.
I’m done arguing over nothing. You don’t even have a point.
