North Carolina Lawmakers Introduce Legislation to Ban Biological Males from Women’s Sports
(Worthy News) – Legislators in North Carolina have introduced a bill to ensure “women are not forced to compete against men playing on women’s sports teams.”
The bill, the Save Women’s Sports Act, was filed Monday by state Reps. Mark Brody, Pat McElraft, Diane Wheatley, and Jimmy Dixon. And, if approved, it would bar biological males from playing on female teams.
In the legislation, lawmakers referenced a study published in December by the British Journal of Sports Medicine, which found that, even after taking hormones for two years to suppress their testosterone levels, transgender females — biological males — still maintained a significant physical advantage over their female counterparts.
