The Spin

Left narrative

This ruling is a victory for the civil rights and dignity of transgender athletes across the US and, hopefully, it will serve as a catalyst for similar decisions. Many states are trying to deny trans people of simply existing in the gender with which they identify, and West Virginia's law sought to deprive a transgender girl of her right to compete with her friends on a middle school track team.

American Civil Liberties Union

Right narrative

The 4th Circuit dealt a blow to women's sports, fairness, and common sense by striking down West Virginia's law that required biological women to compete in women's sports. The left should not be arguing that biological males should be able to compete against biological females. Women and girls are the biggest losers today in this major cultural issue.
