Supreme Court upholds states’
rights for women in sports
WASHINGTON (BP) — A Supreme Court ruling today over two cases out of Idaho and West Virginia upheld the rights of schools to determine gender according to biological sex, and not by gender identity, when it comes to sports. The individuals at the center of Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.P.J. each held that their Title IX rights had been violated when they were not allowed to compete on the women’s cross country and track and field teams. The 6-3 decision, however, focused on innate physical advantages males have over females — regardless of the use of puberty blockers — and thus made the cases about safety for female athletes as well as competitive fairness. The West Virginia decision speaks to athletics up through high school. The Idaho case originated at Boise State University and thus impacts sports through the collegiate level. Justice Brett Kavanaugh delivered the prevailing opinion, joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett. Thomas and Gorsuch filed separate concurring opinions. Justice Sonia Sotomayor filed the dissenting opinion, joined by Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson.
