The Biden administration recently made changes to Title IX that absolutely gut the protections it laid out for women and women's sports in favor of pandering to radical trans activists.
It's a move that belies what the administration says about supporting women: they only support women when it comes to aborting unborn children. The rest of the time, they can't even define what a woman is.
The new Title IX rules, as a lawsuit from the Independent Women's Forum states, means biological men can access women's sports, locker rooms, scholarships, and other single-sex programs and spaces if they merely identify as a woman.
Perhaps the Biden administration is realizing what a political misstep this was, because they're now insisting the Title IX rules won't allow biological men into women's sports.

"It's hard to redefine the word ‘sex’ and not have it apply to the entire statute," Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) legal counsel Rachel Rouleau told Fox News Digital. "You really can't say that sex includes gender identity in part of Title IX, but not in sports."
Her organization is fighting the Title IX update in several cases and has already scored some major victories.
The latest version of the regulation, which expands the definition of sex discrimination and harassment to include gender identity and sexual orientation, will have significant implications for women-only spaces, conservative legal scholars previously told Fox News Digital. The Biden administration's claim that sports won't be affected is deceptive, some experts argue, since adding gender identity to Title IX could make schools feel coerced — even if they aren't required — into allowing students to participate in sports teams that correspond with their preferred gender.
And it's an expensive gamble for schools — institutions that fail to comply with Title IX risk losing federal funding, which is often a significant amount for colleges and universities.

There's no way this administration doesn't come down like a ton of bricks on any school that doesn't allow a male who identifies as a woman into women's spaces on campus. None whatsoever.
This is a lie.
Their support of the trans agenda demonstrates this.
So males who want to be woman get to disregard females? I hope politicians follow the science like they claim they do. Female sports were created due to the significant biological difference males have over females. Let males present as women while participating in men’s sports.

But they won't have males who identify as female compete in male sports because those males often can't compete with other males. Like Lia Thomas.
Biden Lies.

The End.
Yep.
Typical government doublespeak. They're probably just trying to buy time until they can sneak this nonsense through without anyone noticing. Mark my words, it'll be a slippery slope before you know it.

This administration absolutely will sneak this through when they think we're not looking.
Slippery slope, here we come.
Of course he's lying, it's what he does...

Joe Biden doesn't care about women, nor does he care about fairness in sports for them. He's destroying real women's sports.https://t.co/TOuYYymMeC
He's really destroying women's sports.
You don't have to be an expert to see that it's not true

Anyone with eyes and a brain knows this administration is lying.
It's also amazing how the Left and the media (but we repeat ourselves) insist on listening to the 'experts' on everything under the sun.
Except this.
This? Don't listen to the experts. Listen to the administration. Which would totally never lie to you about anything.
