New book fuels the debate over the place of transwomen athletes in competitive sports
Arguably, trans people are subject to discrimination, or worse. Whether or not they are also, as trans athletes, discriminated in sports is a moot point. In a new edited collection, Justice for Trans Athletes: Challenges and Struggles by Ali Durham Greey & Helen Jefferson Lenskyj (Emerald), the contributors argue for full inclusion of transwomen athletes in the female category of competitive sports. Our reviewer, legal and political philosopher Miroslav Imbrišević is a well-known exponent of the opposite view.
