Tennessee Bill Would Require Transgender Student Athletes To Play As Birth Sex


6 views

The issue of whether to allow transgender athletes to play as the gender they now say they identify as or to require them to compete as their birth sex has become an insanely big one when it comes to the fairness and integrity of women’s sports as a whole.

Men who now identify as women have broken records in women’s weightlifting and beat out female athletes who have trained for years due to their sheer biological advantage.

It’s an issue not only in pro-sports, but school sports, too, and that’s why Tennessee is now looking to mandate state-wide transgenders play on school sports teams as the gender they were assigned at birth.

A bill that would do just that has just been introduced by Rep. Bruce Griffey, and if it becomes law would cut funding to any public school that allows for a biological “transgender girl” to play on a girl’s team, or vice versa.
