Judge M. Hannah Lauck of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia issued the injunction in favor of an 11-year-old student, identified as \u201cJanie Doe\u201d in court documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Judge Lauck concluded that Janie is likely to succeed in his claim that the Hanover County School Board violated both Title IX and the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution by barring him from playing on the girls\u2019 tennis team for the 2024\u20132025 school year. The ruling now restricts the district from prohibiting Doe from attempting out and participating in the girls\u2019 tennis team while his lawsuit proceeds. This ruling was made in spite of a unanimous school board decision to ban Janie from the team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is the latest event in the ongoing fight to preserve the truth of gender as binary and for women&#8217;s sports. Judges like Lauck are enabling the delusions of men who have a physical advantage over women. Women&#8217;s sports must be protected in order to preserve that reality of gender.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A federal judge ruled that a Virginia school district cannot prevent a transgender male from joining a girls\u2019 middle school tennis team during ongoing litigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":593,"featured_media":248634,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"give_campaign_id":0,"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"mc4wp_mailchimp_campaign":[],"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"subtitle":"This is the latest event in the ongoing fight to preserve the truth of gender as binary and for women's sports.
