The change in the interpretation of Title IX of the term "sex" from "sex" to "gender" is a completely incorrect modification of the word. The word "sex" is clear. It is not gender. It is "male" and "female".
It’s preposterous to think the IOC will allow this to happen. The Olympics isn’t a microcosm of western ideology. All nations participate and all nations expect a fair competition. What nation (that hasn’t been captured by leftist gender ideology) is going to be cool with this? How about any Muslim nation? African? Chinese? Russian? Basically 80% of the world’s population would revolt. Why are you so certain the IOC will allow this to happen?
Unfair Play, a book by British Olympic swimmer Sharron Davies, provides a comprehensive and well-documented list of the advantages male puberty confers on men in sports, whatever 'gender identity' those men claim. Though most of us don't need convincing that males do not belong in women's sports.
Boycott is the obvious course of action, but for many athletes, particularly women who have children, there is only one window in the their lives when they can compete in the Olympics. Very few get a second shot at it, so they should not be required to give up their main chance because of the selfish and even "insane" actions of men. And this insanity is not just transgender males (I won't call them women because they are NOT women), but the men on all the sporting committees that make these insane and deeply misogynistic decisions to allow women athletes to be pummeled by men. How sick are these men that they want to see it happen. Sick and insane.
I can’t even believe we’re having this conversation. Remember the East German swimmers who were drugged and looked like men? They were labeled cheaters because they were. Keep biological men out of women sports. Simple.
The answer to all this seems so simple - ALL the female athletes should unite and boycott the Olympic games unless/until the IOC ensures no biological males can complete as "women."

I, and many other "transphobic" men, have been beating this drum for years. All normal people agree that men shouldn't be competing as women. Yet still they are. So I have to say we've done all we can. It's up to women to decide how badly they want to preserve the integrity of their sports. If you keep silent and take your place in the starting blocks against a man, you deserve whatever happens. Boycott him and he will look like an idiot competing all by himself. If women's sport flops at the Olympics in front of all those sponsors who have paid billions to cover it, the IOC will take notice.
I realize it's different for a collegiate athlete who will lose a scholarship or not get a Dean's letter if she speaks out. There is life after college and most college athletes will never compete again but instead will do whatever it was they went to college for. I throw no shade on Riley Gaines for waiting till after graduation to speak out. But Olympians and pros are invested in the sport. Let the trans guys compete and your credibility and your livelihood will be gone. No one is going to pay to watch mediocre men crush plucky women. This is on you now.
That this is even a topic of discussion is crazy-making. Even considering the question of men competing in women's sports while pretending to be women is madness, much less that it's been allowed to go on is surely a sign that logic and good sense are no longer part of the equation!

How many women need to be violated and maimed in the name of progress? Here’s a list of men destroying women in sports: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/how-to-save-womens-sports-riley-gaines

"Men and women are equal, but not interchangeable." Another great T-Shirt slogan from the annals of Reality's Last Stand.
If they allow men into the women events this person will turn it all off. Go woke go broke.

I boycotted the last Olympics over trans cheaters, and I am eager to do so again.
Perfect article. I wish the ones who need to read it will.

The olympics have survived past their own death.
They’ve fallen into the Marxist identity nonsense and feel that men who identify as women are women.
I guess the UN is capable of critical thinking.
To be honest I hope there are larping men in the Olympics. Let the world see
