<p>A Martial Arts organization announced a change to its rules after female competitors were forced to compete against <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/this-s-has-to-stop-comedian-rob-schneider-says-stop-making-girls-compete-against-trans-identifying-men" target="_blank" rel="noopener">trans-identifying men</a> without being told that they were taking the mat to grapple with biological males.</p>
<p>The North American Grappling Association (NAGA) said it has revised its rules after female athletes backed out of competitions — after being &#8220;terrified&#8221; and &#8220;scared&#8221; following competitions against transgender athletes at recent events, the <a href="https://nypost.com/2023/10/31/news/naga-martial-arts-org-changes-rules-on-trans-fighters/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Post</a> reported.</p>
<p>The new rules from the <a href="https://www.nagafighter.com/naga-transgender-policy" target="_blank" rel="noopener">organization</a> state that trans-identifying men can only compete against biological men, the outlet noted. NAGA said &#8220;male-to-female transgender athletes who have gone through male puberty are excluded from competing in the female division at NAGHA events. Transgender females must compete in the men&#8217;s division.&#8221;</p>

<p>— Ansleigh Wilk (@Ansleigh_mma) <a href="https://twitter.com/Ansleigh_mma/status/1719536461513425323?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 1, 2023</a></p></blockquote>
<p>&#8220;We hope that the simplicity of this revised policy will help to avoid any future occurrences where transgender females enter women&#8217;s divisions,&#8221; the policy added. &#8220;If NAGA staff is informed that a transgender female is in a women&#8217;s division, they will be given the choice to go to the man&#8217;s division or given a refund.&#8221;</p>
<p>NAGA said its prior rule was that female competitors were given the choice to fight trans-identifying athletes. However, president Kipp Kollar said that when a competitor registered for an event they were only asked if they were male or female with no option to specify whether they identified as transgender.</p>
<p>Jayden Alexander was left in tears and afraid after fighting a biological male at an event in July. She then pulled out of future competitions after being left &#8220;devastated,&#8221; the outlet noted.</p>

<p>&#8220;The simple fact of the matter is that men, signing up in a combat sport to fight women, is absolutely unacceptable,&#8221; Alexander said. &#8220;The experience was horrible and scary … I was absolutely in fight or flight mode.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;We don&#8217;t deserve to self-exclude from competitions to avoid fighting men,&#8221; she added. &#8220;We deserve for there to be rules and regulations put into place that keep us safe and that protect us from these situations happening in the first place.&#8221;</p>
<p>Another competitor, <a href="https://x.com/Ansleigh_mma/status/1720083812003287305?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ansleigh Wilk</a>, posted several videos on <a href="https://x.com/Ansleigh_mma/status/1718814377380339942?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">X</a> after she ended up having to compete against a trans-identifying man despite not being warned ahead of time that would be the case.</p>
<p>&#8220;They felt so strong, I was like, &#8216;Oh my God&#8217; … I thought I couldn&#8217;t take them down,&#8221; Wilk said.</p>
<p>In one video, she said despite the fact that she had ultimately won, the issue wasn&#8217;t about winning — but instead about &#8220;giving a voice&#8221; to Jayden and other girls who had faced similar scary situations. She concluded by asking how this could ever be acceptable. &#8220;I can&#8217;t believe people actually think this is okay.&#8221;</p>
