The plaintiffs said the NCAAโ€™s transgender eligibility policies violated Title IX.

Former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines and 15 other female athletes filed a lawsuit against the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) for allowing transgender athletes to compete in womenโ€™s events.

โ€œItโ€™s official! Iโ€™m suing the NCAA along with 15 other collegiate athletes who have lost out on titles, records, & roster spots to men posing as women,โ€ Ms. Gaines stated on X, formerly known as Twitter.

โ€œThe NCAA continues to explicitly violate the federal civil rights law of Title IX. About time someone did something about it,โ€ she added.

The lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court of Atlanta on Thursday, centers around Lia Thomas, a transgender swimmer who won the womenโ€™s 500-yard freestyle race in the 2022 NCAA championship.

Lia Thomas had competed for the menโ€™s team at the University of Pennsylvania before undergoing a gender transition.

The plaintiffs said the NCAAโ€™s transgender eligibility policies violated Title IX as they failed to accommodate womenโ€™s physical abilities and โ€œgive women equal competitive opportunities in comparison to men.โ€

The lawsuit states that the NCAA imposed โ€œa radical anti-woman agendaโ€ on college sports, โ€œreinterpreting Title IX to define women as a testosterone level, (and) permitting men to compete on womenโ€™s teams.โ€

It accuses the NCAA of โ€œdestroying female safe spaces in womenโ€™s locker rooms by authorizing naked men possessing full male genitalia to disrobe in front of non-consenting college women and creating situations in which unwilling female college athletes unwittingly or reluctantly expose their naked or partially clad bodies to males, subjecting women to a loss of their constitutional right to bodily privacy.โ€

The suit seeks to halt the NCAA from employing its transgender eligibility policies โ€œwhich adversely impact female athletes in violation of Title IXโ€ at upcoming events being held in Georgia.

It also requested that the NCAA render and reassign awards, records, and titles that were given โ€œbased in any way upon the competitive results or participation of any male who competed in womenโ€™s events or on a womenโ€™s team.โ€

The athletes urged the NCAA to โ€œrender ineligible any male who competed in womenโ€™s events or on a womenโ€™s team pursuant to rules of the Association which the Court finds are unlawful.โ€
