UK Culture Secretary Advocates for Ban on Transgender Athletes in Women's Elite Sports

Lucy Frazer calls for definitive guidelines to ensure fairness in female sports categories, citing biological differences as a decisive factor.

Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer urges sports governing bodies to ban transgender athletes from elite women’s sports to maintain fairness.
Frazer emphasizes the importance of clear guidelines and an unambiguous stance to protect the integrity of women's sports.
The call for action follows the Cass Review, highlighting the need for decisive measures in light of insufficient medical evidence on gender care.
Frazer's proposal includes creating an 'open' category for transgender athletes, preserving the female category for those assigned female at birth.
Controversies and legal challenges continue as athletes like Emily Bridges and Lia Thomas seek to compete in women's categories despite bans.
