Jenner opposes biological males competing in girls' school sports: 'It's an issue of fairness'

"It's an issue of fairness and we need to protect girls' sports in our schools," Jenner tweeted.

Caitlyn Jenner, the Olympic gold medalist and transgender woman, firmly opposes allowing biological males who identify as females to compete in girls' school sports.

"This is a question of fairness," Jenner said on Saturday when asked about the matter. "That's why I oppose biological boys who are trans competing in girls' sports in school. It just isn't fair."

Jenner, who recently announced a gubernatorial bid in California, has staked out a clear position on an issue of significant cultural contention.

But while some may find Jenner's position on the matter surprising considering that Jenner is a transgender individual, the Republican is not backing down.

"I didn't expect to get asked this on my Saturday morning coffee run, but I'm clear about where I stand," Jenner tweeted. "It's an issue of fairness and we need to protect girls' sports in our schools."
