在2028年洛杉矶奥运会开幕前夕,国际奥委会周四宣布禁止跨性别女性参加女子项目——这一举措立即得到了白宫的赞赏。
国际奥委会首位女性主席科斯蒂·考文垂(Kirsty Coventry)周四在一份声明中宣布了这一决定,她还表示,所有参加奥运会项目的女性都必须接受基因检测,以确认自己是生物学上的女性。
这一决定出台之际,2028年洛杉矶奥运会的筹备工作正在加速推进,同时特朗普政府正积极采取行动,阻止跨性别运动员参加与其出生时性别不符的体育赛事。
白宫周四对这一决定表示欢迎,并在一份声明中指出,特朗普于2025年2月签署了一项行政命令,旨在通过停止向允许跨性别运动员参加女子和女童体育项目的学校提供联邦资金,来禁止跨性别运动员参与女子和女童体育赛事。
关注特朗普的第二届任期
当时,总统表示,他的政府将“不允许男性殴打、伤害和欺骗我们的女性和女童”。特朗普还誓言,将拒绝向试图参加洛杉矶奥运会的跨性别运动员发放签证。
“国际奥委会在2028年洛杉矶奥运会前夕将其政策与特朗普总统的行政命令保持一致,这是常识且早已 overdue(注:此处原文保留,可能指‘迟来的’)。”白宫发言人戴维斯·英格尔(Davis Ingle)周四在一份声明中表示。
白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·利维特(Karoline Leavitt)将国际奥委会的决定归功于特朗普,她在X平台(原推特)上发文称,是他的行政命令“促成了这一结果”。
考文垂在声明中表示,所有运动员“都必须得到尊严和尊重”,国际奥委会计划“一生中仅对运动员的性别进行一次筛查”。
“作为一名前运动员,我热切相信所有奥运选手都有公平竞争的权利。我们宣布的政策是基于科学的,是由医学专家主导制定的。”考文垂说,“在奥运会上,即使是最小的差距也可能决定胜负。因此,很明显,生物学上的男性参加女子类别比赛是绝对不公平的。此外,在某些运动项目中,这甚至根本不安全。”
目前尚无官方统计数字显示有多少跨性别女性参加奥运会(如果有的话)。在近代历史上,只有新西兰举重运动员劳雷尔·哈伯德(Laurel Hubbard)被认可为跨性别参赛者。哈伯德曾参加2021年东京奥运会,但未获得奖牌。
尽管如此,国际奥委会解释称,其决定是为了保护“奥运会背景下的女子类别,这反映了女子类别保护工作组的调查结果、国际奥委会的各种磋商,以及对包括国际人权法在内的近期发展的考量”。
国际奥委会在一份声明中表示:“制定这项政策的依据是,普遍认为设立女子类别是必要的,这样才能让男性和女性都能平等地参与精英体育。”该委员会希望确保“女子运动员在决赛、领奖台和锦标赛中拥有平等的机会”,并提高女子运动员在奥运会上的“可见度”,以“激励和代表全球的女性和女童”。
反对特朗普行政命令的全国妇女法律中心周四谴责了国际奥委会的决定,称该委员会“采纳了一项会引发混乱、污名化和侵入性审查的政策,而非提供清晰或安全的规则”。
“模糊且在医学上不必要的参赛资格规则并不能保护女性——它们会让运动员面临屈辱性的质疑、被迫披露私人医疗信息,甚至为‘证明’自己的女性身份而进行创伤性的身体检查。”该组织LGBTQI+平等部门主任布莱恩·迪特迈尔(Brian Dittmeier)在一份声明中表示,“这些政策将不成比例地伤害那些已经面临怀疑和歧视的女性,包括有色人种女性和不符合父权制女性期望的女性。”

White House applauds ban on transgender women in women’s Olympic events

Ahead of the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles, the International Olympic Committee on Thursday banned transgender women from competing in women’s events — a move that was immediately applauded by the White House.
Kirsty Coventry, the first woman to serve as IOC president, made the announcement in a statement Thursday in which she also said that all women who participate in Olympic events will have to undergo genetic testing to confirm they are biologically female.
The decision comes as preparations ramp up for the 2028 Games in Los Angeles — and as the Trump administration aggressively moves to prevent transgender athletes from participating in sports not aligned with their sex assigned at birth.
The White House cheered the decision Thursday, noting in a statement that Trump signed an executive order in February 2025 that aims to ban transgender athletes from participating in women’s and girls’ sports by denying federal funds for schools that allow it.
Follow Trump’s second term
At the time, the president said that his administration would “not allow men to beat up, injure and cheat our women and our girls.” Trump has also vowed to deny visas to transgender athletes attempting to compete at the L.A. Games.
“The IOC aligning their policy with President Trump’s Executive Order ahead of the 2028 LA Games is common sense and long-overdue,” White House spokesman Davis Ingle said in a statement Thursday.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt credited Trump for the IOC’s decision, saying in a post on X that his executive order “made this happen.”
Coventry, in her statement, said that all athletes “must be treated with dignity and respect” and that the IOC plans to screen athletes’ gender “only once in their lifetime.”
“As a former athlete, I passionately believe in the rights of all Olympians to take part in fair competition. The policy that we have announced is based on science and has been led by medical experts,” Coventry said. “At the Olympic Games, even the smallest margins can be the difference between victory and defeat. So, it is absolutely clear that it would not be fair for biological males to compete in the female category. In addition, in some sports it would simply not be safe.”
There’s no official count of how many transgender women — if any — compete at the Olympics. In recent history, only Laurel Hubbard, a weightlifter from New Zealand, has been recognized as a trans competitor. Hubbard participated in the Tokyo Olympics in 2021, and she did not win a medal.
Still, the IOC explained that its decision was the result of an effort to protect “the female category in an Olympic context that would reflect the findings of the Working Group on the Protection of the Female Category, various IOC consultations, and consideration of recent developments, including in international human rights law.”
“The policy was developed on the basis that it is universally accepted that providing for a female category is necessary to allow both males and females equal access to elite sport,” the IOC said in a statement, noting that the committee wants to ensure “equal opportunities for female athletes in finals, on podiums and in championships” and enhance the “visibility” of female athletes at the games to “inspire and represent women and girls worldwide.”
The National Women’s Law Center, a group that opposed Trump’s executive order, on Thursday condemned the IOC’s decision, saying that the committee is “embracing a policy that invites confusion, stigma, and invasive scrutiny rather than clarity or safety.”
“Vague and medically unnecessary eligibility rules do not protect women — they expose athletes to humiliating questioning, coerced disclosures of private medical information, and even traumatizing physical examinations to ‘prove’ their womanhood,” Brian Dittmeier, the organization’s director of LGBTQI+ equality, said in a statement. “These policies will disproportionately harm women who already face suspicion and discrimination, including women of color and those who don’t adhere to patriarchal expectations of femininity.”
