For queer people this needs to be a lesson about how incredibly fragile the state of seeming mainstream approval and assimilation is. "Just wanting to be normal" will never create power, will never deliver security. The answer is community care, support, empowerment. This is what Pride is about.

Speaking on trans exclusion in sports (Title IX & Trump’s EO in particular) feels especially urgent right now, given recent developments at UPenn regarding Lia Thomas. I’ll be presenting my pre-registration tomorrow at #ISPP2025, 8:30 AM, Thursday in RB209. Slides/snippets below.

BREAKING The University of Pennsylvania has come to an agreement with the Trump administration on what the Department of Education said was its Title IX violations. This will include stripping trans athlete Lia Thomas of her records, titles, and recognitions.

• UPenn will restore to female athletes all individual UPenn Division I swimming records, titles, or similar recognitions which were misappropriated by male athletes allowed to compete in female categories; • UPenn will issue a public statement to the University community stating that it will comply with Title IX, specifying that UPenn will not allow males to compete in female athletic programs or occupy Penn Athletics female intimate facilities; • The statement will specify that UPenn will adopt biology-based definitions for the words 'male' and 'female' pursuant to Title IX and consistent with President Trump's Executive Orders "Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism" and "Keeping Men Out of Women's Sports"; • UPenn will post the statement in a prominent location on its main website and on each of its websites for women's athletics; • UPenn will rescind any guidance which violated Title IX, remove or revise any internal and public-facing statements or documents that are inconsistent with Title IX, and notify all staff and women's athletics of all such rescissions; and • UPenn will send a personalized letter of apology to each impacted female swimmer.
