密歇根州南部的一个学区投票决定，限制女子体育项目的参与资格仅限生理性别为女性的学生，校董会以 4 比 2 通过了这项新政策，此举正值全美围绕跨性别运动员参加女子体育赛事的争论持续之际。
A southern Michigan school district has voted to restrict participation in girls' sports to biological females, approving a new policy in a 4-2 school board vote amid the ongoing national debate over transgender athletes competing in women's and girls' athletics.
“教育委员会以 4 票赞成、2 票反对、1 名委员缺席的结果通过了新政策，”门罗公立学区总监安德鲁·肖周三在给福克斯新闻数字版的电子邮件中表示。
"The Board of Education approved a new policy with a vote of 4 yes and 2 no with one board member absent," Andrew Shaw, superintendent of Monroe Public Schools, told Fox News Digital in an email Wednesday.
他补充道：“作为总监，我的职责是执行教育委员会制定的政策。获批的政策仅适用于门罗公立学区，不影响任何来访学校。”这项名为“女子体育参与与设施使用”的政策，涉及女子体育项目的参与资格及设施使用。福克斯新闻数字版获得的拟议政策副本显示，门罗公立学区女子体育项目的参与资格将限于生理性别为女性的学生，资格认定以学生出生时出生证明上的记录为准。
"As the superintendent it is my role to implement the policies established by the Board of Education," he added. "The policy that was approved is for Monroe Public Schools only and does not impact any visiting school." The policy, titled "Girl's Athletic Participation and Facilities Use," addresses participation in girls' athletics and access to facilities. A copy of the proposed policy obtained by Fox News Digital states that participation in girls' athletics at Monroe Public Schools would be restricted to biological females, with eligibility tied to documentation on a student's birth certificate.
政策规定：“门罗公立学区女子体育项目的参与资格仅限生理性别为女性者，以出生时出生证明上的记录为准。女子体育设施（更衣室）的使用与准入遵循相同限制。”这一决定正值全美各学区仍在应对跨性别学生参加女子体育项目及使用按性别分隔设施等相关问题之际。
The policy reads, "Participation in girl's athletics at Monroe Public Schools shall be restricted to biological females as documented on the birth certificate at the time of birth. Access to and use of girl's athletic facilities (locker rooms) shall follow the same restriction." The decision comes as school districts across the country continue to grapple with questions surrounding transgender student participation in girls' sports and access to sex-separated facilities.
新政策发布前不久，门罗高中（位于西门罗）女子排球校队队员布里利·莱希纳及其父亲肖恩于 10 月 9 日提起联邦诉讼，由托马斯·莫尔法律中心宣布，依据《教育修正案第九条》和宪法条款，起诉门罗公立学区、密歇根州高中体育协会及学校官员，指控涉嫌相关事件。
The new policy announcement also comes after Briley Lechner, a varsity volleyball player at Monroe High School in West Monroe, and her father, Sean, filed a federal lawsuit on Oct. 9, announced by the Thomas More Law Center, raising Title IX and constitutional claims against Monroe Public Schools, the Michigan High School Athletic Association and school officials over the alleged incident.
布里利·莱克纳表示，她在不知情的情况下与一名跨性别运动员共用更衣室后提起了诉讼。
Briley Lechner said she filed a lawsuit after she unknowingly shared a locker room with a transgender athlete.
“非常可怕的是，事发当天，我完全不知道对方队里有一个男生，”莱克纳于10月15日在接受福克斯新闻数字频道采访时表示。
"What's very scary is that the day that this happened, I had no clue that there was a boy on the other team," Lechner told Fox News Digital in an interview on Oct. 15.
据该法律团体称，托马斯·莫尔法律中心提起的诉讼“指控学校官员知情隐瞒，不让门罗高中女子排球队队员及其家长知晓，2025年9月9日与安娜堡斯凯莱恩高中（Ann Arbor's Skyline High School）的比赛将涉及一名生理性别为男性（跨性别女性）的运动员”。
The lawsuit from the Thomas More Law Center "alleges that school officials knowingly concealed from the Monroe High School girls' volleyball team and their parents that the September 9, 2025, match with Ann Arbor's Skyline High School would involve a biological male (transgender female)," according to the legal group.
在一份声明中，布里利·莱克纳告诉福克斯新闻数字频道：“我们家爱并尊重每一个人，无论我们之间有何分歧。这件事始终关乎我的隐私、我的安全以及公平竞争。仅此而已，别无其他。”
In a statement, Briley Lechner told Fox News Digital, "Our family loves and respect everyone, regardless of our differences. This has always been about my privacy, my safety, and fair play. Nothing more, nothing less."
她补充说：“每一位女性运动员都理应让自己的权利得到尊重和保护。男孩不属于女孩的更衣室，也不属于女孩的体育运动。每一个女孩都理应在更衣室和球场上感到安全、受到尊重和保护。我们本就不该为此而抗争。”
She added, "Every female athlete deserves to have her rights respected and protected. Boys do NOT belong in girls’ locker rooms or girls’ sports. Every girl deserves to feel safe, respected, and protected, both in the locker room and on the court. We should NEVER have to fight for that."
她的父亲肖恩·莱克纳告诉福克斯新闻数字频道：“新政策可能有所弱化，但对我女儿和每一位女性运动员来说，这是一次渐进式的胜利。花了将近一年才走到这一步，这令人羞愧，但我们仍有工作要做。谁能保证他们不会再改一次？无论有些人如何试图歪曲事实，这件事始终关乎我女儿的隐私、安全和公平竞争。仅此而已，别无其他！”
Sean Lechner, her father, told Fox News Digital, "The new policy may be watered down, but it's an incremental victory for my daughter and every female athlete. It's shameful it took nearly a year to get here but we still have work to do. Who's to say they can't change it again? Regardless of how some try to twist the narrative, this has ALWAYS been about my daughter's privacy, safety, and fair play. Nothing more, nothing less!"
他继续说道：“自从我们的诉讼被公布以来，我和我女儿收到了更多骚扰和威胁信息。但我所做一切的核心其实很简单——做一个父亲，做一个家长，并且足够爱我的女儿，在她最需要我的时候站在她身边。”
He continued, "Since our lawsuit was announced, my daughter and I have received even more harassing and threatening messages. But at the heart of everything I'm doing is something simple — being a father, being a parent, and loving my daughter enough to stand beside her when she needs me most."
他补充说：“致所有父母……放下你们的分歧，把信仰、常识和尊重带回我们的家庭。我们的孩子是上帝最珍贵的礼物。爱他们。珍惜他们。保护他们。有一天，你的女儿可能会看着你的眼睛问你：‘为什么在我需要你的时候，你没有为我挺身而出？’我永远不希望我的女儿问我这个问题。我希望她知道她的父亲站在她身边，从未退缩。再多的仇恨或威胁都无法让我们噤声。我永远不会停止为我的女儿挺身而出。”福克斯新闻数字频道已联系托马斯·莫尔法律中心寻求置评。
He added, "To all parents....put aside your differences, bring faith, common sense, and respect back into our homes. Our children are God's most precious gifts. Love them. Cherish them. Protect them. One day, your daughter may look you in the eyes and ask, 'Why didn't you stand up for me when I needed you?' I never want my daughter to ask me that question. I want her to know her father stood beside her and never backed down. No amount of hate or threats will silence us. I will never stop standing up for my daughter."
