Transgender women athletes are now excluded from the Olympics after the IOC agreed to a new eligibility policy on Thursday which aligns with U.S. President Donald Trump's executive order on women's sports ahead of the 2028 Los Angeles Games.

"Eligibility for any female category event at the Olympic Games or any other IOC event, including individual and team sports, is now limited to biological females," the International Olympic Committee said, "determined on the basis of a one-time SRY gene screening."

See how easy that is. This is actual common sense, ignore the very loud vocal minority for like 2 days and it goes completely back to normal.

Liberal white women and media members are going to take this with their usual grace and aplomb.

The Chinese boxer passed her test so she is good to compete. The Algerian said her test is awaiting

The actual trans weightlifter is finished and won’t even take the test because it’s pointless

That’s why Trump and conservatives were so fricking dumb to make those two very unique cases of actual people born differently as their poster child’s for transgenders.

Trans have zero place in women’s sports, period. It was slam dunk for the majority opinion there.

Nope. They can still compete. Just not as women.

Rather than splitting men and women into different categories, athletes will be categorized based on their chromosomes: There will be an XX and an XY category for each event

So just “banned” in the sense that he could not make it to the Olympics competing against other males.

As it should be. If they want to make a new category for people transitioning gender, be my guest. But don’t put men in women’s sports.
