New South Carolina law bans biological males from women’s sports

Gov. Henry McMaster (R-SC) signed a bill that bans biological males from participating in women’s sports into law.

The Save Women’s Sports Act was passed by the South Carolina General Assembly on May 10 and signed by McMaster on Monday.

The law seeks to “ensure that fair opportunities are preserved for all children to compete in sports” based on “a student's biological sex on the student's official birth certificate.”
