Caitlyn Jenner, a Republican candidate for California governor, mentioned in a brand new interview that feminine transgender athletes ought to be barred from competing on all-girls college sports activities groups.

“It is a query of equity,” Jenner advised TMZ on Saturday. “That’s why I oppose organic boys who’re trans competing in women’ sports activities at school. It simply isn’t truthful, and we now have to guard women’ sports activities in our colleges.”

The remarks from Jenner — one of the high-profile transgender People and a former Olympic gold medal-winning decathlete — replicate the efforts of a number of state legislatures to limit transgender girls and women from participation in highschool and faculty sports activities.
