The International Olympic Committee (IOC) will change its policy on allowing trans-identifying men to compete in female sports after reportedly “finding scientific evidence of advantages to being born male.” The word “finding” doing some heavy lifting in that sentence. They have all of a sudden had breaking scientific discoveries showing that men have different bodies than women. Wow. How DID they go about that research? Previously, the IOC allowed men to compete in women’s sports based on testosterone levels and the age at which they transitioned. It was nonsense. It ignored well-established biological differences like men’s greater lung capacity, muscle mass, bone density, and overall size. Now, the IOC is expected to finally end that experiment and prohibit men from competing against women altogether. Took them long enough. What is unclear is if this change will affect women born with differences of sexual development (DSD) like Algeria’s Imane Khelif and Lin Yu-ting of Taiwan who both won boxing gold medals in the Paris games. These athletes were born female but have intersex traits, making them totally different than the men who “identify” into women’s sports.
