Nancy Hogshead-Makar<\/strong> will appear on the Dr. Phil<\/strong> show on Friday to discuss transgender participation in sports.<\/p>\n

The show airs at 3 p.m. Friday on CBS.<\/p>\n

Hogshead-Maker is a three-time Olympic champion and a Civil Rights Lawyer, leading the group Champion Women.
\nShe has been an advocate for women\u2019s sports since her days as an elite athlete. She has been a leading voice in the fight for fairness in women\u2019s sports in regard to transgender athletes, one of the most controversial topics in all sports. The topic has been especially prominent in swimming in the past couple of years, with NCAA champion Lia Thomas<\/strong> from Penn in the forefront of the discussion.<\/p>\n

Hogshead-Makar has said that she is not against transgender athletes, but wants there to be a level playing field that is fair to all women.<\/p>\n

\u201cInclusion and fairness are two vital values in the world of sports,\u201d Nancy Hogshead-Makar said in December.<\/a> \u201cTransgender women should be allowed to compete in women\u2019s athletics, so long as these individuals can show that they\u2019ve mitigated the athletic advantages that come with male puberty. As an Olympic champion and as a civil rights lawyer, I can assure you that there is nothing fair about transgender woman Lia Thomas competing for the University of Pennsylvania in NCAA swimming. Worse, her domination of the \u2018women\u2019s sports\u2019 category is doing nothing to engender greater empathy for inclusive practices throughout society for the trans community.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrans women should compete with biological women, so long as they can demonstrate that they have lost their sex-linked, male-puberty advantage prior to competition in the women\u2019s category.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hogshead-Makar will appear on the Dr. Phil show<\/a> with an expert panel ready to discuss transgender participation in sports.<\/p>\n

\u201cDr. Phil was great, led a respectful, sensitive discussion about a controversial issue: transwomen in sports. I talked about T, science of sex diffs, & potential implications for transwomen competing in the female category,\u201d said Carole Hooven<\/strong>, who will appear on the show with Hogshead-Makar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
