Xtra Explains: Trans girls and sports | Xtra Magazine

Описание: Are trans women really a threat to fairness in women’s sports? Where does the science stand on so-called “biological advantages”? And have trans women ever actually dominated sports in the way right-wing media seem to think they do?

There’s a lot of misinformation and outright fake news online about trans women and sports, and it’s influencing very real policy in places like Alberta right now. As part of our series Xtra Explains: Trans Youth, senior editor Mel Woods breaks down everything you need to know about trans girls and sports.

Check out other explainers on topics like surgery, puberty blockers and social contagion theory on our website, YouTube channel and TikTok.
