A well-known trans activist has suggested making the Olympics gender-neutral and even proposed that Olympic and Paralympic athletes compete together.
Blossom Brown shared these views on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” during a debate with Riley Gaines, a former collegiate swimmer who opposes trans women in sports. Brown supported the idea of removing gender divisions from the Olympics, while Morgan strongly disagreed, calling it “completely insane.”
During the discussion, Gaines asked if Brown also believed that the Paralympics and Olympics should be combined, meaning athletes with disabilities would compete alongside able-bodied athletes.
“I mean, why not?” Brown replied.
Brown, a popular TikTok activist and co-host of “The Trans Parency Podcast,” had earlier defended the idea of removing gender divisions in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
“This country was built on diversity, equity, and inclusion,” Brown argued.
Morgan immediately pushed back, clapping sarcastically and saying, “Congratulations, you excluded all women from winning medals. Well done.”
The debate comes amid recent changes in sports policies. Earlier this month, former President Donald Trump signed an executive order banning biological males from competing in women’s sports under Title IX. The following day, the NCAA also announced a ban on transgender women competing in women’s sports.
The topic of trans participation in sports remains a heated debate, with strong opinions on both sides. Some believe sports should remain divided by sex for fairness, while others argue for inclusivity and equal opportunities for all athletes.
Brown’s comments sparked a strong reaction, especially regarding the idea of combining the Olympics and Paralympics. Many questioned whether it would be fair for athletes with disabilities to compete against those without.
While the 2028 Olympics are still years away, the discussion about gender and sports inclusion is unlikely to end anytime soon. As policies continue to change, debates like this will likely become more frequent in the sports world.
