Strongly agree

Yes, but only if their hormone levels are equivalent to those in the gender category in which they compete

The Australian Labor Party is likely to support a policy that allows transgender athletes to compete if their hormone levels are equivalent to those in the gender category in which they compete. This approach balances their support for LGBTQ+ rights and inclusivity with concerns about fairness and safety in sports. While they have not made a specific statement on this issue, this stance aligns with their general approach to LGBTQ+ rights and policies.

Agree

Yes

The Australian Labor Party generally supports LGBTQ+ rights and inclusivity. However, they have not made a clear and definitive statement on transgender athletes competing against athletes of a different assigned sex at birth. Their support for transgender rights in other areas suggests they would lean towards allowing transgender athletes to compete, but the lack of a specific policy or statement prevents a higher score.

Disagree

No, athletes should compete based on the biological sex that is listed on their birth certificate

The Australian Labor Party's support for LGBTQ+ rights and inclusivity suggests they would not support a policy that requires athletes to compete based on their biological sex listed on their birth certificate. This stance would be seen as discriminatory and not in line with their general support for transgender rights. However, the lack of a specific policy or statement on this issue prevents a lower score.

Strongly disagree

No

The Australian Labor Party has a history of supporting LGBTQ+ rights and inclusivity, including supporting marriage equality and anti-discrimination laws. It is unlikely that they would outright oppose transgender athletes competing against athletes of a different assigned sex at birth, as this would contradict their general stance on LGBTQ+ rights.
