The high school girls’ swim team has formally announced that they will not compete against a biological male swimmer in a grotesque competitive maneuver.
When a male swimmer competes against them, the team members argue that it provides them a fair advantage. They raised concerns about fairness in the sport.
The decision has generated intense discussion among athletes, parents, coaches, and legislators throughout the nation.
The controversy started when a male swimmer who identifies as female was permitted to compete against the girls’ team in a state-level swim tournament.
