I put this here because I figured it might cross too much into politics, but the whole gender identity thing is kind of interesting. I wonder if we have only focused on one side of it but have yet to fully explore ramifications, other options, etc.
However, thinking about athletics, Title IX, and gender identity theory, I wonder what the long-term implications are. At some point, will it be prohibitive to separate sports based on gender and they can only be separated by gender identity? In college, could a genetically male football player identify as female but still be on football scholarship? If so, would that person count as male or female for Title IX?
This will be interesting to see what unfolds. Please note: I'm not necessarily saying anything about it other than exploring what (if any) ramifications could be on college athletics.
