Biden admin insists Title IX update won't allow biological men in women's sports. Experts say that's not true

The Department of Education has said its contentious update to Title IX won't implicate sports or allow transgender women to compete against biological females, but experts argue the current rule already does that.

The Title IX update, which will be implemented nationwide in August if it can overcome legal challenges, keeps the long-standing athletics regulation that allows sex-separate teams. But its 1,500 pages include 31 references to athletics and prohibits gender identity discrimination in any extracurricular activity.
