Olympics implement new policy on transgender athletes
奧運會針對跨性別運動員實施新政策
On March 26, 2026, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced a significant shift in its eligibility policy for the Olympic Games.
於2026年3月26日，國際奧林匹克委員會（IOC）宣布了一項關於奧運參賽資格政策的重大調整。
Starting with the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, the female category will be restricted to biological females, determined by a mandatory SRY gene test.
自2028年洛杉磯夏季奧運會開始，女子組別將僅限生理女性參賽，並須透過強制性的SRY基因檢測來認定。
The IOC stated that this change is intended to ensure fairness, safety, and the integrity of the female category by mitigating biological advantages.
國際奧會表示，此變更旨在透過減輕生理優勢，確保女子組別的公平性、安全性及完整性。
This policy represents a complex intersection of sports science and human rights.
此政策體現了運動科學與人權之間複雜的交集。
Although the actual number of transgender athletes at the Olympic level remains small, the decision is expected to have a significant "trickle-down" effect on national and grassroots sports programs worldwide.
雖然在奧運層級的跨性別運動員人數仍然很少，但預期此決定將對全球國家級及基層運動計畫產生重大的「滴漏效應」(ㄉㄧ ㄌㄡˋ ㄒㄧㄠˋ ㄧㄥˋ)。
