Former U.S. Olympian and current Fox News contributor Caitlyn Jenner has expressed her approval of the Supreme Court’s recent 5-4 ruling against the Biden administration’s efforts to implement changes to Title IX.
In a post on the social media platform X, Jenner celebrated the court’s decision, “The SCOTUS just overturned the Title IX rewrite allowing biological boys into girls sports. This is great news for girls and women’s sports all across the nation!”
Jenner, who won gold for the United States in the 1976 Montreal Olympics, has been a vocal opponent of allowing biological men to compete in women’s sports.
These proposed changes would have allowed transgender women to enter women’s bathrooms, locker rooms and dormitories in 10 states.
Although the Biden administration reasoned that the regulation does not address athletic eligibility, multiple Republican attorneys filed lawsuits and declared that it would conflict with some of their state laws that transgender students are banned from women’s sports.
Jenner, who publicly came out as a transgender woman in 2015, has previously backed New York County’s effort to ban transgender athletes from competition against biological women and stated that “you have to compete in the biological sex that you were born” to “protect the integrity” of women’s sports.
Earlier this month at the boxing competition in the Paris Olympic Games, Algerian boxer Imane Khelif became the target of much scrutiny when it was revealed that she had failed a gender identity test in the past. Set to compete in the women’s 66-kilogram division, Khelif was being barred from the 2023 world championships.
Despite a plethora of scientific evidence that proves those with XY chromosomes don’t have an advantage in sports, Jenner has stood fast on her belief. She criticized that the International Olympic Committee (IOC) allowed Khelif to compete.
Jenner‘s stance has sparked ongoing debates and legal battles across the country and many wonder what propels a transgender woman to fight against her own rights.
