The man involved lied to officials, lied to competitors, hid his sex for years, competed in World Aquatics competitions against the rules and refused to provide evidence to the contrary (for which he is currently banned). He cheated numerous women out of national titles, state and national records, continental records, world records. He has stolen thousands of dollars in prize money, displaying nothing but dishonesty and poor sportsmanship for the entirety of his "athletic career." But this is not the swimmer USMS is banning. In fact, they have deemed him eligible to continue competing in the women's division. The athlete they are seeking to ban is simply a woman who spoke out against all of the above.

Lost a national title to a man. 
Spoke up. 
Now facing a lifetime ban. Women’s sports—and free speech—are on the line.

🚨WATCH: Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO) passionately defends the provision of the SAVE America Act that would keep biological males from competing in women's sports. "A civilization that lies about something as basic as the difference between men and women has already begun a death spiral."

If the IOC doesn't stand its ground & implement sex testing, there is no way to protect the women's category. ID won't do it. There is no fairness for female athletes without sex testing. And men like Imane Khelif will win gold in women's boxing all over again.

For Payoshni Mitra of 'Humans of Sport': Sex screening 'violates ⁠women's and girls' privacy' and exposes child athletes to safeguarding risks'. The vast majority of female athletes disagree. But their human rights appear to be disregarded. cbc.ca/sports/olympic…

🌎 Eighty organizations are urging the International Olympic Committee to continue denying women fair competition in the Olympics, but female athletes are clear: women want a protected category. Our organization, along with many others across the political spectrum and around the world, supports the use of a noninvasive, accurate cheek swab to protect the integrity of women’s competition. It is the only reliable way to ensure women are not denied life-changing opportunities in Olympic competition and sets a standard for all international and national sport federations below.

More than 80 human rights organisations have urged the IOC to drop plans for chromosomal sex testing and a blanket ban on transgender athletes. The groups warn the measures would be a major setback for gender equality in sport. 📷: Getty Images insidethegames.biz/articles/ioc-u…

Hey @UofT why’d you sign onto this? Tired propaganda, easily refuted dramatics, even lies. At least legitimate sport organizations have a clear list of those with a sportIQ of zero. As an athlete 1x sex tested @ ‘92Games+100s doping tests this is the sport athletes actually want.
Cathy Devine@cathydevine56

The vast majority of female athletes will cheer on the IOC if it finally supports a dedicated female category via once in a lifetime sex screen via cheek swab. It will ensure male athletes with trans identities or male DSDs do not compete in women's sport. sportandrightsalliance.org/olympics-sex-t…

Nor is "check the passport/BC", by the way (the IOC's previous method). So if there's a way sport can reliably confirm eligibility without an SRY screen, say it. Or don't. But be aware you're supporting a worse outcome for women (and those you claim to protect, actually)
