What are reasons for including transgender athletes in the gender category in which they self-identify?
What sociological theories help explain this positive inclusion?
What are two examples of successful transgender inclusion in sport or in society? Include links to resources that support your response. Explain the positive outcomes of this inclusion. Note that both examples do not need to be sport-specific; one may be related to sport and the other to society.
Note: Use the Pro Group thread to work with your team. Then, identify one individual in your group to be the leader who will be responsible for posting the case to the Debate thread.
