A new report from the United Nations has revealed that nearly 900 biologically female athletes missed podium placements due to competition with transgender athletes. The report, titled "Violence Against Women and Girls in Sports" and authored by UN Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women, Reem Alsalem, examines the impact of transgender athletes in women's sports globally. The report has been released at a time when high-profile transgender athletes are gaining media attention. For instance, trans golfer Hailey Davidson recently competed in The Ladies Professional Golf Association's (LPGA) second qualifying stage despite opposition from a group of 275 female golfers who objected to the inclusion policy of the organization. Currently, the LPGA requires that transgender golfers undergo gender-affirming surgery and hormone therapy after puberty to compete. Similarly, San Jose State University's (SJSU) volleyball team has come under scrutiny for fielding a transgender player who, during a recent match, accidentally injured an opponent with a forceful spike. Following this incident, four volleyball teams in the Mountain West Conference chose to forfeit their games against SJSU in protest. These incidents are just a few of the many instances wherein transgender athletes beat biologically female athletes in women's sports. In fact, the UN report reveals that over 600 female athletes did not win in more than 400 competitions across 29 sports. This, in turn, impacted about 890 medal outcomes. The report notes that this trend is the "replacement of the female sports category with a mixed-sex category." "The replacement of the female sports category with a mixed-sex category has resulted in an increasing number of female athletes losing opportunities, including medals, when competing against males," the report said. (Related: World Athletics bans transgender athletes from competing in female category at international events.)

A transgender athlete knows that MTF athletes have more advantages than biological female athletes

The ongoing debate is marked by differing perspectives within the LGBTQ+ community itself. In an interview with Outkick, trans golfer Nicole Powers, who has competed in various sports, shared her decision to stop competing against biological female athletes in golf and other sports.  "I had to take a step back and realize that biological realities are real and competitive advantages will always exist despite the number of years or whatever surgeries and hormones you've done, and then understood that my place is not in women's sports," Powers said. Powers revealed she faced backlash from within the LGBTQ+ community for her decision. Many in her support network insist she belongs in women's sports as a trans woman despite her own reservations. "The reaction was almost the same as at a lot of these events that I'm competing in. It's very shocking in the sense of 'well no, no, no, you belong here,' even with me saying 'no I don't,' they still are continuing to try and force the agenda that you're a trans woman and we're going to continue championing you in women's sports," Powers continued. "I'm not a woman, I'm a trans woman. And it's like this bizarro world where I'm trying to defend my reality against people who are trying to defend something I'm telling them I'm not."
