The U.S. Supreme Court has made a landmark decision, upholding the right of states to protect the integrity of women’s sports. In a ruling that supports the rights of biological females, the court has determined that states may maintain women’s and girls’ sports for biological females, and may determine eligibility for women’s and girls’ sports based on biological sex.

South Carolina joined West Virginia in its appeal of the fourth circuit ruling, with Attorney General Alan Wilson referring to the initial decision as ‘profoundly wrong.’ Wilson, who has strongly supported the Save Women’s Sports law in South Carolina, was thrilled with the high court’s decision, calling it a ‘landmark in the fight to protect women and girls from the left’s woke assault.’

Former state representative Ashley Trantham, the originator of the ‘Save Women’s Sports’ movement in South Carolina, filed legislation in April 2020 in response to the rising tide of wokeness in high school sports. Trantham noted that ‘South Carolina has a proud history of cultivating talented and successful female athletes,’ and that ‘women have worked way too hard for equality in sports and regressing is NOT an option!’

The Supreme Court’s decision is seen as a significant victory for those who support the protection of women’s sports, including outgoing first district congresswoman Nancy Mace, who wrote on X that ‘today, they lost’ in reference to the radical Left’s attempts to force men into women’s bathrooms, locker rooms, and sports.
