SUMMARY:Sex\, Genetics & Athletics at Baltimore Underground Science Space (BUGSS) - Baltimore\, MD
DESCRIPTION:Athletics are often divided into men’s and women’s categories to foster fair competition\, but efforts to define who qualifies to compete in the women’s events have been controversial. In this interactive event\, attendees will use athletics (commonly referred to as “track and field” in the US) as a lens to examine the biology of sex differences and how societies react to individuals with these differences. Through a presentation and discussion\, attendees will examine the history of sex confirmation in elite athletic competition and learn why dividing people into two sexes is not always straightforward. Attendees will consider the practice of defining sex by anatomy\, DNA\, and hormones\, and then think about the various viewpoints on fairness\, diversity\, and inclusion in sports and society. The goal is not to reach a consensus\, but to explore the topic together.  \nThis event is intended for middle/high school students and adult learners. It will be an informal and interactive discussion with pizza and drinks provided. Join us for some good food and great conversation!
