A female athlete spoke out on the negative impacts of Joe Biden’s
“Equality Act” on women’s sports. In a CPAC interview on Sunday, NCAA
athlete Linnea Saltz said she feels women will be watching their own
sports from the sidelines if the Biden-backed bill becomes a law.
The act would give men who identify as women the ability to compete in
female sports. Saltz said this would discourage women, because it could
create an uneven playing field. She added, biological males may have
physiological advantages that could prevail over the dedication of women
to their sports.
“Gender identity doesn’t erase physiological differences and that’s just something we have to remember,” Saltz stated.
The athlete went on to say she is looking for proposed solutions that
are inclusive to everyone, but do not come at the exclusion of
biological women.
