Two national golf associations announced new gender eligibility policies Wednesday that bar transgender women who have gone through male puberty from participating in elite women’s competitions.

The LPGA said in a statement outlining its new policy that it had consulted “top experts in the fields of medicine, science, sport physiology and golf performance” and had been advised that “a Player’s exposure to male puberty provides physical advantages that are beneficial to golf performance compared to Players who have not had such exposure.”

And with the Republicans trying to ban healthcare for trans youth where does that leave us?

The Republicans lies and bigotry are having an effect on us, like Joseph Goebbels said you tell a lie often enough it becomes the truth.

The updated policies, which take effect next month, will prevent Scotland’s Hailey Davidson, a transgender woman who nearly made it to this year’s U.S. Women’s Open, from taking part in the highest-profile women’s golf events.
