Abstract

This review scrutinizes gender uniqueness disputes in competitive sports, centering the evolution of policies relating to female and male gender confirmation and transgender participation in sport. The issues are complex and remain to contest sport governing bodies, including the International Olympic Committee, as they struggle to offer a safe environment in which transgender athletes may compete fairly and equitably.
