NCAA changes transgender policy to limit women's competition to athletes assigned female at birth
AP ^ | 2/6/25 | Eric Olsen

The NCAA changed its participation policy for transgender athletes on Thursday, limiting competition in women's sports to athletes assigned female at birth only.

The move came one day after President Donald Trump signed an executive order intended to ban transgender athletes from participating in girls' and women's sports. The order gives federal agencies latitude to withhold federal funding from entities that do not abide by Title IX in alignment with the Trump administration's view, which interprets "sex" as the gender someone was assigned at birth.

NCAA is full of bureaucrats who failed to get employed by the federal government. They only respond when they are afraid they will be forced to behave.

They just can’t stop, can they? “assigned...at birth” like that’s a real thing.

Big win!

It’s amazing how quickly common sense and a pair of testicles can be restored once the threat of lawsuit by the Gesta ... oops, I mean Federal Department of Justice, is removed.

Previous NCAA policies restricting athletes from making money with jobs for extra income led to NIL, which has been upheld by the Supreme Court.

Any effort by the NCAA or universities to make even the smallest restriction of transferring will be quickly be shut down by the courts.

They make it sound like medical staff got to choose. To ‘assign’ something you’d have to make a subjective decision - but it’s OBJECTIVE. SMDH.

I really doubt that any college in the NCCA could not afford to run their athletic programs without Federal funding.

Yet as soon as their Fed funding it threatened they fold like the cheap suit.

Their Leftist values fall to their lust for money.

Just think of all the Trans-women that will commit suicide because these NCAA officials did stand firm on their LBGT-DEI principles.

True, but the liberals talk about assigned at birth, which makes it sound as if some arbitrary process is used, to decide if the baby is a boy or a girl.

You and I know the sex is observed, but some people like to create complexity about a straightforward situation.

Unfortunately, if you want these deviants to understand you need to communicate in their weird lingo.

Maybe they’re conceding God’s role in the process.

I note the AP use of the term ‘assigned at birth”, which pretends that the child comes out of the womb as a hermaphrodite creature and the attending physician must make a determination of sex using some undefined set of factors. The determination made is only preliminary, and as a social construct, is subject to refinement into a variety of genders.

Don’t buy into any part of this ideological view pretending to be medical science. Note efforts to help children to live according to their self-evident anatomy is called “conversion therapy” and is considered bad. Indoctrination often followed by brutal chemical treatment, and surgical actions to alter the natural self is called “gender affirming care” and is good.

Currently any perception of doubt is exploited by teachers and councilors to direct children and young adults into an ever-shifting idea of personal awareness where internal, subjective ideas eradicate the biological realities of sex.

Great news, indeed...BUT, they continue to use the same BS Woke Language:
"...limiting competition in women's sports to athletes assigned female at birth only.
That horrific abuse of the language, common sense, and thought processes needs to end. It just continues to support and endorse the nonsensical tranny / pervert point of view.

The NCAA should have simply stated "[We are] limiting competition in women's sports to WOMEN athletes." Then reject every man pretending to be a woman who tries to play.
