USA Boxing Allows Men to Fight Women With New Transgender Guidelines

USA Boxing on Friday officially adopted a new transgender policy, which will permit males who identify as female to compete against females if they meet certain qualifications.

The new policy was first proposed in August 2022, as highlighted by National Review, and outlines that male athletes, in addition to claiming to be female, must complete “gender reassignment surgery” and test their testosterone levels for four years following such procedures.

“The athlete must demonstrate that her total testosterone level in serum has been below 5 nmol/L (nanomoles per liter of blood) for at least 48 months prior to her first competition,” the policy says, adding that requirement “for any longer period to be based on a confidential case-by-case evaluation, considering whether or not 48 months is a sufficient length of time to minimize any advantage in women’s competition.”

“The athlete’s total testosterone level in serum must remain below 5 nmol/L throughout the period of desired eligibility to compete in the female category,” one requirement reads.

Notably, the guidance notes that the “normal range of testosterone for males is defined as more than 10 nanomoles per litre (10 namol/L) and normal range of testosterone for females is less than 3.1 nanomoles per litre (3.1 namol/L).” (Read more from “USA Boxing Allows Men to Fight Women With New Transgender Guidelines” HERE)

GOP Governor Vetoes Bans On Gender Procedures For Minors, Biological Boys Competing In Girls Sports

Governor Mike DeWine (R-OH) vetoed legislation Friday that would have banned gender procedures for minors and prevented boys who identify as girls from competing in girls’ sports.

Ohio House Bill 68, which was passed by the Republican-controlled Ohio General Assembly, was made up of two acts: the “Save Adolescents from Experimentation Act” and the “Save Women’s Sports Act.” The bill would ban transgender procedures on minors, such as double mastectomies on girls who identify as boys, and other genital procedures for children with gender dysphoria. It would also also prohibit biological boys from competing in girls’ sports across the state.

HB 68 passed mostly along party lines on December 13, with the Ohio House voting 62-27 and the Ohio Senate voting 24-8 to approve the legislation, but after issuing his veto on Friday, DeWine said he was concerned about the legal implications of signing HB 68 into law.

“I truly believe that we can address a number of goals in House Bill 68 by administrative rules that will have likely a better chance of surviving judicial review and being adopted,” DeWine said at a press conference, ABC News reported.

SICK: Dozens of Children Under 5 Have Been Referred to the Controversial NHS Transgender Clinic

More than 70 children aged three and four have been sent to the controversial NHS transgender clinic, it can be revealed.

The pre-schoolers were among 382 youngsters aged six and under referred to the Gender Identity Development Service (GIDS) over the past decade, official figures show.

Campaigners say they never should have been put forward by doctors or parents for psychological assessment at such a young age. . .

It comes ahead of a long-awaited final report by consultant paediatrician Dr Hilary Cass, which is expected to make further far-reaching recommendations about transgender services for young people after her interim study led to GIDS being ordered to shut down.

The Government is also trying to stop the spread of contentious gender identity ideology in schools, with equalities minister Kemi Badenoch declaring that teaching children they can be born in the wrong body is harmful.

Delta Airlines Employee Goes Viral For Standing Up To ‘Trans Activist’ At Airport (VIDEO)

A man who appears to be a Delta Airlines employee went viral this week on social media after he stood up to an alleged transgender activist who was upset that the man did not use his preferred pronouns.

It appears that the video was taken late last week potentially at New York-LaGuardia International Airport (LGA) given that “LGA” appears on the employee’s jacket.

The purported transgender individual in the video, who appears to be the person holding the camera, complains that he was “misgendered” because the airline employee called him a “he.” . . .

“You’re being condescending and if you want to continue, I have full authority to escort you out the building right this moment if you want to play that game with me,” the employee fired back. “Would you like to continue three days before Christmas? I really don’t mind.”

Trans Collegiate Sprinter Switches to Women’s Team, Breaks Record

A transgender sprinter, who formerly competed against males in high school, is now competing on his college’s women’s track and field team, and earlier this month set a school record.

Sadie Schreiner, who formerly went by Camden Schreiner, is permitted to compete with and against female track and field athletes at Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), despite being a male. Schreiner identifies as transgender.

Notably, Schreiner is now only referred to as “Sadie Rose” on RIT’s athletics website.

“New school record‼️,” RIT celebrated Schreiner on its track and field Instagram page last week. “Sophomore Sadie Schreiner set a new record in the 300m dash last Friday at Nazareth, clocking in a time of 41.80s.” . . .

Rochester radio host Bob Lonsberry said Schreiner would have landed in 41st place if he were still competing against males.

Multiple School Districts Scrap ‘Nonsense’ Transgender Policies

Two New Jersey school districts voted to get rid of their state-recommended transgender school policies last week.

The board for the Franklin Lakes School District about 20 miles east of New York City voted 5-4 on Thursday to scrap its adoption of a transgender school policy recommended by the state.

Just a few miles away and on the same day, the Westwood Regional School Board voted 5-2 to toss the state’s transgender guidance as well.

The state’s version of the transgender policy states that school staff should keep a student’s new gender identity hidden from their parents unless the student gives permission or if there is a risk to the student’s health and safety. The policy also says trans-identifying students must be allowed to use the bathrooms and play on the sports teams that correspond with their gender identity.

High School Student Fails Quiz for Answering ‘Only Women Can Get Pregnant’

A history teacher at a Seattle high school allegedly gave a student a failing quiz grade after he answered that only women can get pregnant and only men can have penises.

A 10th-grade Ethnic Studies World History teacher at Chief Sealth International High School administered the quiz. The test focused on “understanding gender vs. sex” and asked students to answer a series of multiple-choice and true or false questions. . .

Question 4 of the exam asked students to identify whether the statement “All men have penises” is true or false. The student marked the statement true, which was labeled as incorrect by the teacher.

Question 7 of the quiz similarly asked students to identify whether the statement “only women can get pregnant” was true or false. The teacher again marked the student’s answer incorrect when he said the statement was true.

Several other questions asked students to answer questions like, “When someone uses ‘they/them’ pronouns, what does that mean about their gender identity?” and “True/false: Transgender people are gay.” (Read more from “High School Student Fails Quiz for Answering ‘Only Women Can Get Pregnant’” HERE)

Parents Fume After Trans-Identifying Boy Wins Regional Dancing Competition, Heads to World Championship: Report

A teenage boy who identifies as transgender reportedly took first place this past weekend in the under-14 category at the 2023 Southern Region Oireachtas Irish dancing competition in Dallas, Texas, ultimately displacing a girl for a spot in the Irish Dancing World Championships.

As rules are changed to adhere to radical Left-wing gender theory, biological male athletes who identify as female have been able to infiltrate girls and women’s spaces and sports.

“My daughter was in absolute tears,” one mother of a girl who competed against the male told Daily Signal reporter Mary Margaret Olohan. “She was like, ‘This is so unfair.’ I totally agree.”

“Oh, my gosh. It’s going to make me cry,” another parent said. “I never thought I was going to have to deal with this. And my heart breaks for my daughter and the other girls that are having to deal with this. They are too young to have to deal with topics that are going on in society, that are adult topics, that they don’t quite comprehend yet.”

“They just look at it as unfair,” the mother added. “And it’s really hard to explain to them what’s going on and why they have to accept it. That’s what society’s making them do. As a mom, I want to be an advocate for my daughter. But at the same time, I have to protect my family.” (Read more from “Parents Fume After Trans-Identifying Boy Wins Regional Dancing Competition, Heads to World Championship: Report” HERE)

Study Confirms Body Mutilations Are ‘No Cure’ for Mental Health Issues

A new study shows that people who experience gender dysphoria cannot expect various mental health issues to disappear by having gender reassignment surgery, according to a report in the Washington Stand. . .

The study noted that those with gender dysphoria “present with many more common psychiatric needs” than a population in general, “even when medical GR [gender-reassignment] interventions are carried out.” . . .

The study reviewed cases of more than 3,600 people who reached out to “nationally centralized gender identity services” in Finland from 1996 to 2019, and found 38.4% got cross-sex hormones or surgical “reassignment.”

Then researchers lined up eight other people “of the same sex, age, and place birth,” resulting in a control population of nearly 30,000.

Comparing the groups, the authors found “a much higher risk that a person with gender dysphoria will need ‘specialist-level psychiatric treatment’ (most often for mood disorders and anxiety) than their age-matched controls, and that they will receive more care after entering the system,” the report noted.

WATCH: Sparks Fly Between Riley Gaines and Dem Rep During Hearing on Biden Proposal to Rewrite Title IX

Representatives and witnesses highlighted concerns for girls and women during a contentious hearing on Tuesday challenging the Biden administration’s proposed changes to Title IX, which would effectively broaden the definition of sex to include “gender identity.”

The proposed changes would rewrite Title IX in such a way that policies banning biological males who identify as trans from competing with or against females would now be in violation of law. Issuing such sex distinctions to protect girls sports, therefore, could strip a school of its funding. The rule would be applied to public K-12 schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions that receive federal funding.

The hearing opened with a rather fiery interaction between former NCAA swimmer-turned-advocate Riley Gaines and Democratic Rep. Summer Lee (PA), who preemptively suggested Gaines and other witnesses’ testimonies would be “transphobic” and filled with “hateful misinformation.”

“And Ranking Member Lee, if my testimony makes me transphobic, then I believe you’re opening monologue makes you a misogynist,” Gaines said in closing her opening statement.

Lee interrupted the next witness to ask to have Gaines’ words taken down. Gaines chimed in, “Can I just ask, how it’s fair to be called transphobic —” before Lee interjected, “I never called you anything.”
