The first of two expected Supreme Court rulings dropped today and it's a big win for sanity.
Justice Kavanaugh delivered the opinion upholding the "trans" ban keeping men out of women's and girls' sports in West Virginia and in Idaho.
A majority of the court still knows what a "woman" is.
Here's part of the majority opinion:
Separate sports teams for biological males and biological females are reasonable: Given the inherent physical differences between the sexes, allowing only biological females to play on women's and girls' teams can reduce the risk of physical injury and ensure fair competition. True, some might prefer a different rule allowing biological males who identify as female to participate on women's and girls' sports teams, at least in certain circumstances. But it was surely "reasonable" for HEW in 1975 to draw a biological line — a line where biological males play only on male sports teams and only biological females play on female sports teams. Even in recent years, 27 States, the NCAA, the USOPC, and the IOC have all drawn the same line.
In assessing the reasonableness of the regulations, we also must recognize the distinctiveness of competitive sports — and the safety and competitive fairness issues that can arise when females are forced to compete against males.
With respect to safety, allowing biological males to play on women's and girls' sports teams can put women and girls at significant risk of injuries. The safety risks are particularly severe in contact sports.
And as to competitive fairness, allowing biological males to play on women's and girls' sports teams can put female athletes at a serious disadvantage.
Men are men, women are women, and it's dangerous to allow men, no matter how they "identify," to compete against women.
This is a far cry from a court that doesn't know what a woman is.
The first ruling today is a victory for sanity in America.
