COI Aligns with Trump's Order: Bans Trans Women from Olympic Competitions
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has adopted new rules excluding trans women from female categories in Olympic competitions, aligning with US President Donald Trump's executive order. The decision aims to align with the US government's stance on gender identity, which includes a ban on trans athletes competing in female categories. The IOC's new rule requires a negative result from a SRY gene test to determine eligibility for female categories.
