Megan Rapinoe & Sue Bird call out Olympics for introducing genetic testing to ban trans women - LGBTQ Nation
""It's so blatant on its face. It's just a total acquiescence to the Trump administration and to really right-wing conservative politics that really is just bringing down so much hate against such a small percentage of people who are just trying to live their lives. It's just horrible, and I'm just sickened by it.""
""What it is is fearmongering [...] for them to get votes. That's all this is. It's all that it's ever been in my opinion.""
Megan Rapinoe and Sue Bird condemned the IOC's new genetic gender testing policy for women's categories, viewing it as a political maneuver influenced by right-wing politics. They argued that the policy harms participation in women's sports and negatively impacts the trans community. Rapinoe described the policy as a blatant capitulation to conservative politics, while Bird labeled it as fearmongering for political gain. They expressed solidarity with the trans community during their podcast, emphasizing the need for visibility and support.
