   Florida has become the latest US state to ban transgender girls and   
   women from participating in female sports at public schools and   
   colleges.   
      
   The state's Republican governor Ron DeSantis signed the measure into   
   law on Tuesday.   
      
   The law says women and girls must play on the teams of the   
   biological sex on their birth certificate.   
      
   LGBT activists have denounced the move as "discriminatory", with one   
   group vowing to launch a legal challenge.   
      
   "We believe that is very important that the integrity of these   
   competitions are preserved," Mr DeSantis said as he signed the law   
   at a Christian school in Jacksonville city.   
      
   "We're gonna go based on biology, not based on ideology when we're   
   doing sports."   
      
   The move comes as Republican-led states push back against pro-LGBT   
   policies supported by the administration of Democratic US President   
   Joe Biden.   
      
   What does the law say?   
   Florida's law defines an athlete's sex as that stated on official   
   documents at birth.   
      
   Called the Fairness in Women's Sports Act, the law says sports teams   
   for girls and women "may not be open to students of the male sex".   
      
   It's not clear whether all female athletes must now show their birth   
   certificates to be in sports teams.   
      
   The law would not bar female athletes from playing on boys or men's   
   teams.

   Transgender competition is cheating and sneaky homosexual   
   gaslighting, something Democrats excel at.
