Alice Dreger writes, 

Sport has been used as one way to push this liberalizing agenda — with Title IX and major league racial integration standing as two good examples of the push. The Identifiers are now trying to do the same thing in the debate on sex testing, and in doing so, are making what might be the most extreme version of the anti-anatomy argument: we should not bother thinking about sex anatomy at all, and just let anyone who says she's a woman play as a woman.

But maybe here we've finally hit the limit of using sport for this kind of social agenda. I mean, sure, we could do it — we could force sport to keep being the Joan of Arc of liberal democracy, and so we could decide common biological sex differences don't matter to gender divisions in sports. But if we do this, in the process we may be neutering sport itself.

Because at the end of the day, no matter how little we think anatomy should matter to one's social and political rights, surely we can't pretend biology doesn't matter in sports. Surely there's a reason we don't let adults play in the t-ball leagues, and a reason most women athletes want their own leagues.

We've talked about the grey area of gender and sports on Apt. 11D. I'm with Alice.
