The International Olympic Committee recommended that sports organizations allow biologically male, transgender athletes to compete in women’s sports without lowering their testosterone levels.
The committee stated that no athlete should be excluded from competition based on unverified, alleged, or perceived unfair competitive advantage due to biological sex in a Tuesday report. The report says athletes should compete in sports based on their self-determined gender identity and should not be subject to “targeted testing” to determine biological sex.
“Athletes should not be deemed to have an unfair or disproportionate competitive advantage due to their sex variations, physical appearance and/or transgender status,” the report said.
The International Olympic Committee went on to state that athletes should never be pressured to undergo “medically unnecessary treatments,” including hormone therapy, which some transgender people use to lower their testosterone to the level to that of a biological female.

So, all those Russians and East Germans who had their medals rescinded should get them reinstated.

the left destroys EVERYTHING.
Sports has been on their radar a long time ago, because it’s one place that is pure skill and talent driven. No affirmative action on professional sport teams outside the head offices. Same with they Olympics.
these cultural Marxists are like worms destroying the host.
