Caitlyn Jenner is facing a widespread backlash after she said transgender girls shouldn’t compete in female sports.
Jenner, herself a transgender woman and former Olympic athlete, made the remarks to TMZ yesterday, as she returned to her car following the “morning coffee run”.
She said: “This is a question of fairness. That’s why I oppose biological boys who are trans competing in girls’ sports in school.
“It just isn’t fair, and we have to protect girls’ sports in our schools.”
Her comments come only days after new laws were passed in Florida that would restrict girls’ sports team access exclusively to people who were born female.
Dozens of other states are considering similar legislature, with laws already passed in Alabama, Arkansas, Tennessee, West Virginia and Mississippi.
