The US #Olympic & #Paralympic Cmte quietly changed its eligibility rules on Monday to bar #transgender #women from competing in Olympic women’s sports, & now will comply w/ #Trump’s discriminatory #ExecutiveOrder on the issue, acc/to a post on the organization’s website.#LGBTQ #discrimination https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/22/us/politics/us-olympics-trans-women-athletes-ban-trump.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share&referringSource=articleShare

The new policy, expressed in a short, vaguely worded paragraph, is tucked under the category of “USOPC Athlete Safety Policy” on the site, & does not include details of how the ban will work. Nor does the new policy include the word “#transgender” or the title of #Trump’s EO, “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports,” referring to it instead as “Executive Order 14201.”#LGBTQ #discrimination #Olympics

The committee’s new policy means that the national governing bodies of #sports federations in the #UnitedStates — which oversee sporting events for all ages, from youth to masters’ competitions — now must follow the #USOPC’s lead, according toseveral chief executives of sports within the #Olympic movement.#LGBTQ #discrimination #Trump

#USA #Fencing posted a new policy for #transgender athletes on Friday that will take effect on Aug. 1. Those new rules still allow #trans #women to compete, but only in the #men’s category. The policy says that #nonbinary athletes, #transgender men & #intersex athletes will also be limited to competing in the men’s category.#LGBTQ #discrimination #Olympics #Trump

The #Olympic committee said in its new #policy that it was “committed to protecting opportunities for athletes participating in sport,” & that it would work with the International Olympic Committee, the International #Paralympic Committee & the national governing bodies of every Olympic #sport “to ensure that women have a fair & safe competition environment consistent with Executive Order 14201 & the Ted Stevens Olympic & Amateur Sports Act.”#LGBTQ #discrimination #Olympics #Trump

@Nonilex LOL, how will they tell that someone is non-binary if it is not in their passport?
