[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has there been any enforcement guidelines put out by NVSL?[/quote]

The way it was explained to me was that it would be treated more as a protest similar to if someone was suspected of violating the "must be a member of the pool to be on the swim team" policy. So they would only investigate and ask for proof if someone brought an athletes gender into question. It's gonna be so much "fun" watching people scrutinizing athletes bodies and the fall out of a girl who was assigned female at birth having their girlhood questioned. [/quote]

Yeeeesh.  This feels infinitely more harmful than a trans kid swimming a race.  So we are going to have post event investigations on gender that will require proof? Genetic testing? God, they really didn't think this through did they? Swim reps are going to have so much fun pulling aside a 12 year old girl and telling them that a parent from the other team thought they looked a little mannish so they need to go get a blood test.

Happy summer swim everyone![/quote]
