In their book Fair Game, Ellie Roscher and Anna Baeth address and dispel myths about transgender athletes and their inclusion to sports as a whole. The authors’ primary argument is that trans athletes do not pose a significant risk to the world of sports and that they may indeed offer new perspectives on the gendered way we approach sports at the present. This text is a timely response to the increasing attempts across the United States to legislate trans athletes off the field and out of public sports.
