(ChurchLeaders) After the NCAA Board of Governors released a statement supporting transgender athletes, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson criticized it as “utterly insane” and as “brutality,” not equality.
Monday’s policy statement from the NCAA, which oversees collegiate athletics, allows transgender women to compete in women’s sports as long as they undergo testosterone suppression treatment. This “more inclusive” stance, says the NCAA, permits “inclusion and fairness [to] coexist for all student-athletes, including transgender athletes, at all levels of sports.”
