A new bill requiring Tennessee students to play sports based on their birth certificate's gender identification would require student athletes to only compete against other athletes of the same biological sex.
A new bill requiring Tennessee students to play sports based on their birth certificate's gender identification is being called"demeaning" by activists and"proactive" by the bill's sponsor.
Introduced last month, the bill would require student athletes to only compete against other athletes of the same biological sex. The bill would affect transgender athletes, who may be a gender different than the one assigned at birth. For example, a student's birth certificate could list the student as female, but the student identifies as male and present as so or vice versa.
