‘Gonna Let Men Do It?’ Aaron Rodgers Takes Direct Shot at Trans Athletes

Aaron Rodgers, known for never holding back on controversial issues, has once again sparked headlines, this time for his take on transgender athletes in women’s sports. Speaking with Joe Rogan on The Joe Rogan Experience, the 41-year-old NFL quarterback criticized the growing presence of biological males competing in female categories, calling it fundamentally unfair.

Rodgers referenced recent viral stories, including Luce Allen, an 18-year-old male-born runner who identifies as female and won the 200m at a Pennsylvania high school meet, and AB Hernandez, a transgender athlete from California who dominated the girls’ long jump and triple jump events.

“You’re not seeing trans men dominating anything,” Rodgers said. “It’s because there’s a biological difference.”

“It’s Anti-Woman,” Says Rodgers

Rodgers didn’t mince words when he called the trans inclusion movement in sports “anti-woman.” He argued that allowing transgender women to compete against biological females undermines the integrity of women’s athletics.

“The people who you’re asking those questions… whether or not there’s a decided advantage… can’t even define what a woman is,” he said.

Joe Rogan fully agreed, calling the system “crazy” and filled with double standards.

“If you’re a trans man, now you have to take testosterone, which is banned. You can’t take it. So are you going to let them take it, and you won’t let older athletes take it? That sounds insane.”

Rodgers agreed: “Way too much common sense there, Joe.”

Rodgers’ comments join a larger national debate reignited by Donald Trump’s executive order titled “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports.” Supporters of the order argue that biological differences give transgender women an unfair advantage in competition. Critics claim that such policies are discriminatory and harmful to the trans community.

With high-profile athletes like Rodgers and influential voices like Rogan entering the conversation, it’s clear that this issue isn’t going away anytime soon. Rodgers has thrown his support firmly behind those who want single-sex sports to remain based on biological sex, not gender identity.
