more reason to #BoycottTheOlympics🏳️⚧️
Olympics bans transgender women from female category
"The move revives sex testing, which was previously dropped in part due to the emotional distress inflicted upon female athletes who discovered their biological makeup was actually more complicated than they were aware of."

The weaponization of Title IX to exclude trans women does not remedy the many disparities for women in sports; instead, it exacerbates them.

'There's no reason to ban us from playing': Analysis debunks notion that #transgender women have inherent physical advantages in sports
A meta-analysis of 52 studies that included over 5,000 transgender people suggests that transgender women's physical fitness after hormone therapy is comparable to that of cisgender women.
By Nicoletta Lanese, Kristina Killgrove published February 7, 2026
Excerpt: "When normalized for height, 'transgender women, after gender-affirming hormone therapy, do not show greater strength or aerobic capacity than cisgender women,' Gualano said. That included both upper and lower-body strength."

#SCOTUS Restores Rep. #LaurelLibby’s Floor Privileges, Enjoins Maine Dems’ Censure of Her
By Libby Palanza, May 20, 2025
"The censure sparking this lawsuit came after Libby refused to apologize for a viral social media post depicting a biologically male high school student athlete who took first place in a girls’ track and field contest.
"After Libby refused House leadership’s demand to apologize for the post — a condition of her censure — Speaker Fecteau stripped her of her right to vote and and participate in floor debates.
Libby still retained her right to sponsor legislation, present motions, engage in committee work, and testify at public hearings."

#Maine governor criticizes #Trump administration for freezing funds amid #transgender athlete dispute: ‘It’s not rational’
By Alyssa Vega Globe Staff,Updated April 14, 2025
"Maine #GovernorJanetMills criticized the Trump administration on Monday just days after it moved to cut all federal #education funding to the state. The move came in response to Maine’s refusal to enforce the administration’s directive to ban transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports.
In an interview on MSNBC’s 'Morning Joe' Monday, Mills said the state received a series of letters from federal agencies, culminating in an April 2 letter from Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins, which the Maine governor described as 'appalling' in tone and substance. Mills said the next day Rollins threatened to pull all education funding to the state." 'Because there are maybe two — at most — two transgender athletes competing in Maine schools right now, they decided to shut off funding for our school nutrition program, the school lunch program entirely, on which 172,000 Maine school #children rely for their school meals. That didn’t make any sense,' Mills said. "

In high school, I could easily beat the boys at 50 and 100 yard dashes (and could dunk way more baskets than most of them -- 7 in a row from the line one time). But I was not allowed to compete directly with them, or play on the boys' basketball team. The boys had no problem with it -- but the school did. Some of us are born with subtle differences in chromosomes, hormones, etc., and not-so-subtle differences in weight, skills, etc. Maybe we should focus on muscle mass, weight, skill, etc., like there is with boxing and other sports. In martial arts class (which I became a brown belt in a class full of boys), we competed by skill and size -- not by gender. Just saying...

US track star says she feels ‘defeated’ after Trump’s move against #TransAthletes
By Brynn Gingras and Bonney Kapp, CNN
March 20, 2025Portland, Maine (CNN) — "She’s a two-time All American in 200- and 400-meter races. A college athlete used to winning, with a goal of making the 2032 US Olympic team. But 21-year-old #SadieSchreiner says she feels 'defeated.'
"Not by the sport she loves or the physical rigors of the training but by the shifting rules on #TransgenderAthletes that have left her running alone around the track or now not running competitively at all.
"But she won’t stop. 'I don’t know what would happen if I don’t have track and field, and I’m not going to see that reality,' Schreiner insisted.
"Schreiner knew when she was young that her physical body didn’t match her gender and began transitioning while in high school. She takes 8 pills daily to keep her testosterone levels low enough so they aren’t detectable on lab tests.
'(The hormone therapy) shrank my ligaments. It’s made me shorter. It’s made me weaker. It’s lessened my muscles. It’s redistributing my fat. It’s lowered my lung capacity,' Schreiner explained. “My biology is fundamentally different than a cis man.'"Her NCAA 24:12 personal best for the 200 meters puts her in the top tier of her age group but she said she’s a wholly different athlete than the high school kid who ran in boys’ races. 'I am now 20% slower than I was in 8th grade.'
"Undetectable levels of testosterone used to be the standard to compete in NCAA competitions.
"Schreiner says she makes other accommodations too: 'I don’t even change in the locker rooms.'"But there’s nothing more she can do to run in college events – the competitive home of young US athletes – since the NCAA governing body followed President Donald #Trump’s executive order titled 'Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports' with a rule change limiting participation in women’s sports to those assigned female at birth.
"She switched to meets organized by USA Track & Field – the national governing body for the sport – which holds competitions across the country for all ages and skill levels.
"It was the only place Schreiner was allowed to compete, isolated from her teammates and coaches. In some races, she ran around the track alone, with no competition in her age group, which she called 'brutal.'
" 'I am literally racing against me, instead of racing at these college meets, at the competitive levels I should be.' "

So, sharing these photos of #SadieSchreiner from her website, showing the difference in her body before and after her transition. She isn't the same person she was before her transition. The same with anyone who has undergone HRT. Don't believe RWNJ emphasis on a few studies with only a couple of *participants*. Folks who undergo gender transition change. 'Nuff said!
