FAIR: Transgender Who Made Switch From Men’s To Women’s Volleyball Now Eyeing Olympics

A transgender athlete from Hawaii is on his way to the Olympics after switching over to the women’s volleyball division.

Tia Thompson, a 32-year-old biological male who believes he’s a woman, competed in the men’s division for all USAV-sanctioned competitions up until January, when USA Volleyball declared him eligible to compete as a female. Unsurprisingly, Thompson is dominating biological women in Hawaii’s most popular sport and has set his sights on the Olympics.
