    Florida Governor Ron DeSantis signs transgender athlete bill into law on first day of Pride Month.
    CBS News (Moderate Left) • Factual Grade 77% • 4 min read

    The "Fairness in Women's Sports Act" states that women and girls must play on the sport teams of the "biological sex" on their birth certificate. Therefore, a transgender girl whose birth certificate denotes her "biological sex" as male, cannot play on a girls' sports team. If a transgender boy wants to play on a boys' team, he can.
    ...
    In regard to signing the bill at the start of Pride Month, DeSantis said: "It's not a message to anything other than saying we're going to protect fairness and women's sports." The bill originally included a rule requiring transgender athletes to undergo testosterone or genetic testing and to have their genitalia examined, but those stipulations were removed.
    ...
    The NCAA, which is the main governing body for college sports, said it would only hold NCAA championships at "locations where hosts can commit to providing an environment that is safe, healthy and free of discrimination." Critics argue the "Fairness in Women's Sports Act" makes Florida an unfit host for NCAA championships.

Context: Tennis star Naomi Osaka declined a press interview for mental health reasons.

HIGHLIGHTED COMMENTS

No - Interviews are boring and monotonous and most of the time any celebrity is being interviewed, they're asked the same questions. So unless Sean Evans is giving the interviews, they should be allowed to skip. Especially if this is taking a toll on the mental health of these people.


Yes - Event organizers have every right to set conditions for participation. Press events he...



Unsure - That is a surprisingly complex question. Do we hire athletes for their athletic prowess, or to be media personalities? If the former, no they should not ...
