The International Olympic Committee has announced it will end its trans-athlete policy in March, just after the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. Instead, the Olympics are offering a 10-point framework to encourage each individual sports' governing body to create its own policies around who can compete in the women's category. Kirsti Miller joins us this week from Australia to talk about the new policy. The trans athlete has advocated for changes to sporting policy for trans athletes for years. This new policy reflects some of what Miller has been pushing for years, namely a framework that is built around each individual sport and athlete. She talks about the effects that transitioning has had on her, and why she is so encouraged by the new IOC policy. You can follow Kirsti Miller on Twitter. Learn more about your ad choices.

Before transitioning, Kirsti Miller was a world champion and a multi-sport sensation in her Australian hometown of Wagga Wagga, as well as being the toughest prison governor in the correctional system. After transitioning, hormone treatments saw her go from over 100 kilos to under 60 as the supposed advantages of having once inhabited a male body quickly ebbed away. She joined me to talk about the realities facing trans people - especially women - in sport, and how education rather than fear is key to understanding what we need to do next.
