If the NCAA wanted to, they could've kept men out of women's sports
The National Collegiate Athletic Association announced an about-face on its 2022 “participation policy” for transgender-identifying athletes this week: No longer are men allowed to self-identify their way into women’s sports.Absolutely correct, and it's a shame it takes a conservative/responsible leader to convince the NCAA to retreat from their previous position. They should be able to do it themselves, and unfortunately, it took 4 years for them to cut it out. That they only stopped now just makes clear it's only because somebody like Trump was elected, not because they actually recognize the wrongs in their prior standings. If a Democrat is elected again, will they boomerang? Well that's why it's time to replace outfits like the NCAA with outfits whose leaderships actually care.
“The new policy limits competition in women’s sports to student-athletes assigned female at birth only,” the NCAA said in a press release, forced to acknowledge the genetic differences between men and women while bitterly clinging to the anti-science trans-speak “assigned at birth,” as if chromosomal makeup is arbitrary.
Regardless of the continued language manipulation, however, the policy change stands — and it’s a direct result of female athletes demonstrating the myriad ways male athletes have harmed them, plus a strong leader in the White House who is willing to listen and act.
On Wednesday, just one day before the NCAA policy reversal, President Donald Trump signed an executive order (titled simply “Keeping Men Out Of Women’s Sports“) that stripped all funding from educational programs that let men and boys infiltrate women’s and girls’ athletics. “It shall also be the policy of the United States to oppose male competitive participation in women’s sports more broadly,” the order reads, not only for reasons of “safety” and “fairness,” but also to preserve “dignity, and truth.”
The NCAA allowing males to compete against females “is demeaning, unfair, and dangerous to women and girls, and denies women and girls the equal opportunity to participate and excel in competitive sports,” Trump’s order says.
The NCAA will also have to present awards previously given to men-in-blackface to the women who actually won the competitions in focus. That's another matter that must be resolved, and soon.
