I think the purpose is to make sure that sex isn&#8217;t being used to discriminate by denying opportunities\u2026 I wouldn&#8217;t look to whether or not to classify B.P.J. as male or female, I think the question is, \u2018is she being denied an opportunity because of that classification?'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After the hearing, Fox News Digital asked Block what his definition of &#8220;sex&#8221; is. He declined to give a definition.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s what, that&#8217;s what&#8217;s at issue in this case. What&#8217;s at issue in this case is fair treatment for all people, including cis people and trans people, and that&#8217;s what we&#8217;re here to talk about today,&#8221; Block answered.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/aclu-launches-transgender-athletes-awareness-campaign-amid-supreme-court-case\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/aclu-launches-transgender-athletes-awareness-campaign-amid-supreme-court-case <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) launched a new public awareness campaign in support of transgender athletes in female sports as the organization argued a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"twitter_2902945987_2902945987":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[16563],"tags":[],"stock_ticker":[],"class_list":["post-117322","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-market-news","entry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
