## Resource

A Portland Thorns fan says she and her group were ejected from Providence Park and later barred from a local bar for wearing XX-XY Athletics apparel—designed to promote biological sex-based sports designation—claiming staff cited “transphobic” reasons, though the team insists removal was for distributing unapproved materials. The bar, The Sports Bra, initially asked them to leave but later publicly affirmed support for transgender women in sports, declaring “Trans girls are girls, and trans women are women.” Amid national debate over transgender athletes in women’s sports, the NWSL’s code of conduct explicitly bans discrimination based on gender identity, and the Thorns say they’re reviewing the incident.
