IOC Considers Blanket Ban on Trans Women in Olympics

The Spin

The IOC's science-based ban on transgender women from female Olympic competition represents a long-overdue victory for fairness and female athletes worldwide. Scientific evidence clearly demonstrates that biological males retain permanent physical advantages even after testosterone reduction treatments, making competition fundamentally unfair to women who trained their entire lives.

The IOC's proposed blanket ban ignores scientific studies showing transgender women have no competitive advantage at elite levels and threatens to exclude athletes based on flawed policies. This discriminatory approach follows Trump's anti-trans executive order and creates unnecessary controversy around athletes like Imane Khelif who aren't even transgender.
