The Supreme Court on Thursday allowed a 12-year-old transgender girl in West Virginia to continue competing on her middle school's girls sports teams while a lawsuit over a state ban continues.

The justices refused to disturb an appeals court order that made it possible for the girl, Becky Pepper-Jackson, to continue playing on her school's track and cross-country teams, where she regularly finishes near the back of the pack.

Two weeks ago, track and field banned transgender athletes from international competitions. West Virginia is among 20 states that ban transgender athletes from participating in sports consistent with their gender identity, according to Movement Advancement Project, a pro-LGBTQ2S+ rights think tank. Under the law, male athletes can play on male or co-ed teams and female athletes can play on all teams.

But Goodwin ultimately found that the law does not violate the Constitution or Title IX, the landmark 1972 gender equity legislation. Goodwin, an appointee of former President Bill Clinton, ruled the law could remain in place as appeals continued.

Women should boycott this event.

BS GARBAGE

Going to have to change sports to XY competition, XX competition and XY/XX competition leagues

How many application have there been for trans men to compete in male sporting competitions? Seems that this phenomenon trends only the opposite way.

Boooooooooooooo! What kind of society does this to their own girls?

Let it run alone.

Wow the left wants to wreck sports for biological females...

Woman need to stand up against this garbage. If you need your prostate checked at 40 your a man.

The left's war on women's rights is really disturbing.

No girl should enter. Let the freaks run alone. Run with just the girls some other day

People a sick . Trans people want us to except them. When they can’t even except them selfs

I wonder why you’ll never … ever …. See a biological female, who’s transitioned to male ever compete at a high level against males? This only goes one way for obvious reasons ppl seem to have a hard time grasping

Suckers are the girls who compete against him/they/them.

'High court: Trans girl can run girls track in West Virginia' All the real girls should start the race, then immediately stop in protest ! .

Why make it gender based at all. Why not just have it broken up into times. If you can run a 5km in 10 min, you are in one group, and if you do it in 1hr like me, you get a different one. It just needs to be fair for all, and gender has nothing to do with it.

Yeah, add some more spices!👍🤡

Sickening

All the other female athletes should boycott the event

Or maybe all sports ( and I mean all sports, hockey, football, soccer, baseball, basketball, etc) should cease to exist. Remove the sport, problem solved!

That is a misleading headline. the court said that the kid can keep running while they make their decision.

What an absolute disgrace to decency and common sense.. 🤮

Then all REAL women should simply just boycott.

Boy runs against girls? Will he get the girls scholarship as well? Shame on everyone who falls for this horseshit.

Paused

A little misleading headline. Until a lawsuit over a full ban is determined for those tired of reading such nonsense

100% disgusting and a slap in the face to women. But hey, if woman don’t want to stick up for themselves I guess they can have their sports ruined

So boys can compete in girls competitions. They didn't transition into anything but broken.

Nope. Sorry, I support people being who they want to be/who they feel they are, including Trans people, but not at the expense of others. In this case at the expense of other Woman who've trained hard.

How about Trans Games.

This is insane.🤦 If a Transgender can run the girls track, then anyone other than a judge can run the high court. EndWokeness

This is a disgrace and an injustice. What about all those girls who have dedicated time, effort and money for their sport only to be cheated out of victory by a boy who thinks he is a girl? This insanity needs to stop.

This is why it's happening

Stay out of women's spaces! TransWomenAreConMen

But can she make a proper sandwich?

Why don’t the real woman stand up, Refuse to compete and end this madness. I guess they are afraid they will be cancelled and called names which I’m sure would happen. Pisses me off if your trans that’s fine but stop trying to dominate woman’s sports your not a biological female

Correction: biological boy can run in girls track and field.

So stunning and brave. 🤣

reopenasylums

Then why bother breaking into genders. Just let everybody compete against eachother. Women losing their rights to men.

So a guy can race against girls. Then you wonder why women are getting fed up with this lie of gender identity.

Biological women will over come this! Just a matter of time and society will realize how 'con' the whole situation is; transgender girls are not girls and transgender boys are not boys! Sex is a fact! Biological girls space,privacy and dignity needs to be respected!

........so it's the end of GIRLS track in West Virginia!

So its no longer woman's track.

Here we go. Just opened up flood gates for women sports. I feel bad for women’s athletics at this point

'Boys and men make better girls and women'

Men can compete with women. Great Co-ed heavy weight boxing. Lets do it.

The erasure of biological women in real time.

Misleading. The Supreme Court allowed her to continue pending her appeal only.

Disgusting

You mean a man can participate in a women's event, fixed it for ya!

Step up your game ladies. The women+ are taking over. Your time is done in sports.

Disgusting

Not fare

Going down a slippery road. First off he's not a girl by anatomy. Question for you parents with real girls, you cool with a boy claiming they're a girl change in the same rooms as your girls? Where are you parents? I don't hear you fighting back to this garbage.

Why is this becoming such an issue all of a sudden!?

We need a study on these trans girls who want to compete against female girls. What kind of people are they? What do they accomplish in life? There is no honour in this so what is their motivation?

Most ridiculous. What is the point of this

Boys* can run girls track in West Virginia. Fixed it for you.

Has she had her cervical cancer test?

What in the fuck ?

Seems logical.

Absolutely the wrong decision

Can't compete with the boys huh
