Hartnett, on whether schools may lawfully have seperate boys&#8217; and girls&#8217; teams and, if so, how &#8220;male&#8221; and &#8220;female&#8221; should be defined for equal protection purposes. Hartnett agreed separate teams are permissible but repeatedly declined to offer a concrete legal definition of sex, saying the court should look to how the state frames the term and that they were not disputing the statutes&#8217; definitions. Alito pressed hypotheticals-such as a birth-sex male who identifies as female but has not taken hormones-to highlight whether barring that person from girls&#8217; teams would constitute discrimination based on transgender status. The exchange framed the dispute around the state&#8217;s asserted interests in fairness and safety in women&#8217;s sports and underscored the challenge the Court faces in defining sex for constitutional purposes.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_3)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito asked a prescient question as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/supreme-court-justices-lean-toward-abortion-restrictions\/\" title=\"... justices lean toward abortion restrictions\">high court heard oral arguments<\/a> on Tuesday about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/supreme-court-justices-simple-question-blows-gaping-hole-in-transgender-athletes-case\/\" title=\"...
