Five middle school girls from Lincoln Middle School in West Virginia have been banned from participating in school sports after they refused to compete against a transgender student in a shot put event. The Harrison County Board of Education made the decision, which has sparked significant controversy and led to multiple lawsuits. Critics argue that this decision undermines Title IX protections, which are designed to ensure gender equality in education and athletics, and accuse the Biden administration of bastardizing Title IX. The situation has attracted attention from various stakeholders, including West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey, who has filed a lawsuit against the Harrison County Board of Education.
