A shocking UN report reveals that female athletes have lost 890 medals to transgender competitors across 29 sports, sparking urgent calls for change. The report warns that this imbalance threatens not just fairness but also safety. Women now face higher injury risks from competing against male-born athletes, raising concerns about the future of female sports.
Even more alarming, the removal of single-sex spaces like locker rooms and toilets could lead to increased risks of sexual harassment, assault, and voyeurism. The report stresses the need to protect women by establishing exclusive female-only categories.
