What is Inclusion?
"The act or practice of
embracing and welcoming
individuals who have historically
been marginalized (as because
of their race, gender, sexuality,
or ability)" - Merriam-Webster
INCLUSION:
Emotional, mental, and
social benefits are all well-
known when it comes to
sports participation. These
chances should not be
denied to transgender
individuals, especially
youth.
WHY INCLUSION
MATTERS FOR LGBTQ+
ATHLETES?
What does it mean
to be Transgender?
DEFINITION
Individuals who experience
incongruence between the gender
that they were assigned at birth
and their gender
identity/experienced gender.
FACT #1 Transgender is an umbrella term.
FACT #2
Transgender individuals are VERY
diverse in their identities, sexual
orientation, and expressions.
FACT #3
Not all Transgender individuals go
through a medical "transition".

POLICIES

Source: Transathlete.com
IOWA - HF2416 - SIGNED INTO LAW
3/3/22
IA HF2416 would prohibit transgender
athletes from participating in high
school and college sports on teams that
match their gender identity, and would
allow any athlete who believes they have
been unfairly injured by the involvement
of a trans athlete to sue.
SOUTH DAKOTA - SB46 - SIGNED
INTO LAW 2/4/22
ISB46 in South Dakota prohibits
transgender athletes from playing on
teams that match their gender identity
and instead forces them to compete
based on their birth certificate from the
moment of birth or shortly thereafter. It
also empowers any athlete who believes
they have been unfairly injured as a
result of a trans athlete's involvement to
sue individuals, schools, school districts,
and higher education organizations.

LET'S TALK ABOUT IT
For decades, twenty states, the
IOC, and the NCAA have permitted
trans athletes to participate in
sports without incident.
Positives and
"Concerns" of
Transgender
Athletes in Sports
Fueled by
discrimination,
not facts.
SO WHY IS THERE SO
MUCH OUTRAGE ABOUT
TRANSGENDER
ATHLETES?
Outrage is primarily focused on
Transgender Women more than
Transgender Men
Concern around athlete's safety
Maintaining equal athletic fairness
SO WHY IS THERE SO MUCH OUTRAGE
ABOUT TRANSGENDER ATHLETES?
Outrage is primarily
focused on
Transgender
Women more than
Transgender Men
Only transgender females are
deemed to have a significant
benefit as a result of
androgenic hormones.

As of today, trans
athletes DO NOT have
an unfair advantage in
sports*

It will benefit everyone if trans athletes
are included
Emotional, mental, and social benefits
Provides more inclusion and
acceptance in sports

TRANSGENDER ATHLETES IN SPORTS?
Evolution of
Transgender
Athletes in Sports

NOTABLE TRANSGENDER ATHLETES
KNOWN FACT
There's NO official count
of trans athletes in youth,
high school or college
sports.
Advocating for
Transgender
Athletes
Vocalize Your Support
Let trans athletes know that you support them. There is plenty of evidence that
giving individuals the opportunity to participate in athletics leads to favorable
outcomes. Sports should be available to everyone.
TIP #1
Fighting together
Thousands of people in the United States are advocating for transgender
athletes to participate in sports. Regardless of what happens now, the
fight for justice will continue!
TIP #2
Ask your senator to vote no on
anti-transgender sport bills
Transgender kids, like everyone else, have the right to participate in sports.
Discrimination occurs when people are denied the opportunity to participate in a
sport that is appropriate for who they are. Say/Vote NO to present anti-
transgender athlete bills.
