'''Transgender and the Olympics''' concerns the policy of the [[Olympics]] in dealing with the unfairness of biological men invading women's sports as [[transgender]]s.
The Olympics has adopted a policy of deferring to the international committees unique to each sport, but those committees are vulnerable to [[lawfare]] and [[judicial activism]].
As of 2024, the Olympics has dropped a requirement based on hormone treatments.<ref>https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/international-olympic-committee-issues-new-guidelines-transgender-athl-rcna5775</ref>
The Olympics, perhaps due to pressure by the [[transgender agenda]], is in [[liberal denial]] about inherent athletic advantages of males which makes it unfair to allow them to compete in women's sports. As summarized by [[NBC]] News:
{{cquote|In a six-page document, the IOC outlined 10 principles, which it described as "grounded on the respect for internationally recognised human rights," that sports competitions should follow. It also said it will no longer require athletes to undergo hormone level modifications to compete.
"This Framework recognises both the need to ensure that everyone, irrespective of their gender identity or sex variations, can practise sport in a safe, harassment-free environment that recognises and respects their needs and identities," the committee said.<ref>https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/international-olympic-committee-issues-new-guidelines-transgender-athl-rcna5775</ref>}}
