Summary
The Trump administration has frozen $175 million in federal funding to the University of Pennsylvania over its policies allowing trans women to compete in women’s sports.
A senior official said this is “just a taste” of further action, with UPenn at risk of losing all federal funding due to a Title IX investigation.
Trump signed an executive order on February 5 banning trans women from women’s sports, citing fairness and safety concerns.
Advocacy groups are challenging the move, arguing it discriminates against trans athletes.
You may want to double check your claim that it’s undeniable that I have an advantage over cis women.
I have like a magnitude of order less testosterone than my girlfriend. And if I had been put on puberty blockers I wouldn’t have benefited from any of the physical development of testosterone.
In 9 months I’ve lost 20 lb of muscle mass. Yet I still have a large frame to carry around.
Additionally, they found that some Olympic level cis women have more testosterone than some of the Olympic level cis men.
So, it is a lot more nuanced than the right is making it out to be. And if you want to make claims like this, you need to prove that trans women are a demonstratable harm to cis women. Not the other way around.
And yes, they did disparage me. I am not a man. Though I was assigned male at birth.
