Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has filed a lawsuit against the National Collegiate Athletic Association for allowing men who identify as trans to participate in women's sporting events.

Paxton says that this is a violation of Texas' Deceptive Trade Practices Act. Paxton said in a statement, "The NCAA is intentionally and knowingly jeopardizing the safety and wellbeing of women by deceptively changing women’s competitions into co-ed competitions. When people watch a women’s volleyball game, for example, they expect to see women playing against other women—not biological males pretending to be something they are not."

He added that "Radical Gender Theory" has no place in college sports.

The lawsuit aims to put an injunction on the NCAA that prevents them from allowing trans athletes to compete in Texas, or against Texas teams, or would require the NCAA to not market these mixed-sex competitions as women's events.
