Legislative history

[edit]

From July 18, 1975 onward, Arizona statutorily banned same-sex marriage. On July 22, 2003, Standhardt v. Superior Court of Arizona was filed by two same-sex couples who sought to overturn the state's ban on same-sex marriage. On October 8, 2003, the Arizona Court of Appeals ruled against the plaintiffs in the case of Standhardt v. Superior Court of Arizona, upholding the state's same-sex marriage ban. On December 9, 2003, the Arizona Supreme Court declined to review the case of Standhardt v. Superior Court of Arizona, which effectively allowed the Arizona Court of Appeals' decision to stand, which had upheld the state's ban on same-sex marriage.

On May 12, 2008, the AZ House passed as amended, by a vote of 33 in favor, 25 against and 2 not voting, SCR 1042, which had the Vietnam Veterans' Memorial Day part of it stricken out of the bill for a legislatively referred constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage. On June 25, 2008, the AZ Senate passed, by a vote of 16 in favor, 4 against and 10 not voting, SCR 1042. On June 27, 2008, the AZ House passed, by a vote of 39 in favor and 21 against, SCR 1042, which put it on the November 2008 general ballot.

Exceptions

[edit]

The law includes several exceptions to the restrictions on entering sex-designated changing rooms:

  • Minor children: A minor child may enter a sex-designated changing room if they require assistance and are accompanied by a parent, guardian, or relative whose sex corresponds to the changing room's designation.
  • Dependent minors or adults: Dependent minors or adults who need assistance can enter a sex-designated changing room accompanied by a caretaker whose sex corresponds to the changing room's designation.
  • Public safety services: Law enforcement, emergency medical services, or fire protection personnel may access a sex-designated changing room while performing public safety services.
  • Health care providers: Employees of health care facilities may access sex-designated changing rooms to provide health care services to patients.
  • Maintenance staff: Individuals whose job duties include the maintenance or cleaning of the changing room are allowed to access the area.
  • Unisex or single-occupant facilities.
  • Sex-designated changing rooms not open to the general public.
  • Transgender individuals who has undergone sexual reassignment surgery and legally changed their sex on their birth certificate.
  • Intersex individuals.


The Sex-Based Designations For Privacy, Anti-Bullying, And Women's Opportunities Act is a law passed in Utah in 2023. It establishes regulations for the use of restrooms and other public facilities based on an individual’s biological sex at birth, mandates anti-bullying initiatives, and promotes measures to ensure women's participation in public and educational spaces. The law is part of a broader national trend involving legislation that affects transgender individuals, as it restricts access to facilities based on sex assigned at birth and aims to address privacy, safety, and fairness in public and educational institutions. The law was passed despite opposition from civil rights groups, and it has faced legal challenges since its implementation.

Provisions

[edit]

The Sex-Based Designations For Privacy, Anti-Bullying, And Women's Opportunities Act has the following key provisions:

  • **Facility Usage**: Individuals are required to use restrooms, locker rooms, and changing facilities that align with the sex they were assigned at birth. This applies to public schools, government buildings, and state-run institutions. Unisex options must be provided where necessary.[4]
  • **Anti-Bullying Measures**: The law includes provisions for anti-bullying programs that focus on protecting students from harassment, particularly in educational settings. It aims to promote a safe and supportive environment for all students, with a focus on protecting privacy.[5]
  • **Women's Opportunities**: The law includes specific language to promote and protect women's participation in sports and educational programs. It sets guidelines for ensuring that spaces and opportunities traditionally reserved for women remain accessible to them based on their biological sex.[6]

Facilities Covered

[edit]

The following public facilities and private facilities that receive public funding, operates in a publicly owned or controlled building or has shared and communal privacy spaces are covered by the Sex-Based Designations For Privacy, Anti-Bullying, And Women's Opportunities Act:

Approximately 23.5% of private facilities and 52.9% of public facilities covered:

  • Assisted living facilities
  • Colleges
  • Correctional institutions
  • Domestic violence centers
  • Healthcare facilities
  • K-12 schools
  • Massage establishments
  • Shelters
  • State government buildings with restrooms or changing facilities
  • Pain management clinics
  • Substance abuse treatment centers
  • Universities

Penalties

[edit]

Violations of the facility use provisions can result in penalties, including fines or misdemeanor charges. Institutions that fail to comply with the law may face civil penalties or legal action by the state's attorney general. Additionally, public schools are required to establish internal disciplinary procedures for violations of the act by staff or students.[7]

[edit]

Following the enactment of the law, several civil rights organizations, including the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), filed lawsuits arguing that the act violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, as well as Title IX protections for transgender students. A preliminary injunction has been sought to pause enforcement of the law while litigation is ongoing.[8]

Exceptions

[edit]

The law provides for a few exceptions to the facility use requirement, including:

  • Providing assistance to individuals due to age, disability, or medical needs.
  • Emergency situations that require immediate access to facilities.
  • Individuals undergoing medical treatment for intersex conditions under a doctor's supervision.[9]

Reactions

[edit]

Supporters of the law argue that it ensures privacy and safety in gender-segregated spaces and protects women's opportunities in sports and other areas. They also highlight the importance of reinforcing traditional values regarding sex and gender. However, critics, including LGBTQ+ advocacy groups, argue that the law discriminates against transgender individuals and compromises their dignity and access to public spaces.[10]

The Last of the Iron Sisters is a 2017 episode of VICE Sports' SWOLE documentary series that focuses on Danish professional female bodybuilder Helle Trevino and her preparing and competing at the 2016 Rising Phoenix World Championships.

Plot

[edit]

The documentary starts backstage at the 2016 Rising Phoenix World Championships with Helle Trevino praying to God.


The Rising Phoenix is one of the last places for women to compete in bodybuilding. The event was created in 2015 after a series of women’s competitions cut out the bodybuilding division. Jake and Krystal Wood explain why they, as fans, were concerned about the possibility of canceling female bodybuilding division and shows and founded the Rising Phoenix.

We saw kind of a problem happening. They were canceling female bodybuilders division and the shows. Both of us, being fans, were really concerned. And we didn’t even know what to do. We just stepped in. 01:37 There's still a lot of people out there that can't accept the idea that a women has muscles, that a women is physically strong. And that's one of the things that I would really love to see change. In this industry we call each other “iron sisters.” And so many times we’ll see people be mean to us because we’re different. 02:00 And to put them up on a stage and celebrate that they’re different, I have the utmost respect for them. People are looking at their body and they’re looking at them, but they’re not seeing what’s inside. And what's inside is someone who was brave enough to just say, “This is what I want, no matter what the world tells me. 02:30 ” This is not a sport where you can just go to the gym and go out and drink a beer with your buddies. It’s like, you have a schedule with your food; you’ve got to time it. You have to eat on time, you train on time, you do cardio on time. Everything is very detailed. There's no such thing as just being lucky. 02:48 Anything in life, you got to work hard at it, especially on ourselves.


Helle Trevino is a professional Danish bodybuilder who now lives in Venice, Los Angeles California. She is preparing for the 2016 Rising Phoenix women’s bodybuilding competition. She says anywhere she goes she's recognized as a bodybuilder, so she feels even stronger representing her sport with her appearance. She adds that if she acts crazy or yells that it reflects badly on not just her, but also for her sport.

She starts cooking chicken and explains she cooks big and for the week.

I just love chicken. I think I know how to make chicken a hundred different ways. No joke. Cook big, cook for the week, then it’s just easier. Come on in. -Hey, Austin. -How are you? -Sorry, I was just eating. -No, it's all good. 03:45 Nice! Pretty big case. How are you? Good. Are you excited? Yeah, I'm super excited. Two days. I know, man. I’m nervous for you. I mean, the shape’s there. I know. I think whenever something is different, like a woman is super muscular, it’s like, “Oh, she wants to be a guy,” or, “She wants to be a transsexual. 04:09 " It's like people are trying to find some kind of weird explanation or overthinking. Maybe that’s just my ideal of beauty. Maybe I like to be strong mentally and physically. It makes you be better, do better. It builds character, it builds discipline. I always had it in me that I wanted to be the best. I like to be different. I like the extreme. 04:38 And also be a role model, inspire people like I was inspired. I'm an online trainer and coach. So I draw up diet plans, training plans, stuff like that. So I’ll work a little and then I’ll go back to the gym in the evening and do another hour of cardio, another session. Sometimes I'll also do some posing. 05:01 I like the feeling when people look at me. Even if I go power walking here, I get a lot of comments. People are like, “Wow!” With bodybuilding, it’s like you can decide what kind of size you want. And that's why we also have so many categories today. It’s not just bodybuilding anymore. It’s bikini, figure, fitness, physique, bodybuilding. 05:31 So it’s all about muscle shape, but it’s small, bigger, a little bigger, and biggest. And I'm in the biggest category. You think of bodybuilding, you think of men. And the women had to fight to be on the stage. They thought and said that that was too muscular. Even as an amateur, my goal was to go to Ms. 06:07 Olympia, to be the best in the world. And so now you’re telling me there’s no place for me. Like, now what? [For 34 years, Ms. Olympia was] the biggest event in women’s bodybuilding.] [It ended its event in 2015,] [the same year Rising Phoenix was started.] When I talk to the competitors, most of us, we all have that same conversation that we have this place to go, this place to compete, and that’s exciting. 06:37 There will be off days when you doubt yourself. “Have I made the improvements? Will I be good enough? Am I working hard enough? Am I doing the right things?” People are always on your side when it's going well and you're winning. And then when you’re down and it’s going bad, they’re like, “Oh, maybe you should give up. 06:55 ” My motto is, “It’s hard to beat someone who doesn’t give up.” But I’m definitely getting excited. This sport is all about preparation, so I started 2nd of November last year to prepare for this competition. The prize money for this show is pretty high. It’s $50,000 cash and a $65,000 Jeep. Last year I was second. 07:22 I’m one of the favorites to win this year, so I hope that I have the package that the judges will like. It’s really nice. -Very pretty. -Good? -Yeah, -OK. Are you happy with the color and stuff? The face, body? Yes, I was going to ask. I can deepen it a little bit, but I know we like it lighter. 08:00 But if you want I can-- Just deepen it a little bit. OK, let me get this. I have to be at rehearsal in five minutes. OK. So we got to make it quick. I have the opportunity to win this competition, so I don't want to compromise. This is crazy. My phone has been beeping all day like crazy. It’s just really emotional for me that my friends and my family, they’re all behind me, and I just get so many messages from everybody. 08:49 This is my sister, she's pretty buff too. Yeah, it's in the family. This is the 18 best female bodybuilders in the world. 18 best. They came from all over the world, flew in to compete here. Better go in and see what’s going on.

The IFBB Pro League 2016 Rising Phoenix World Championships, held at the Talking Stick Resort in Scottsdale, Arizona, showcases the best in all professional women bodybuilding from around the globe. It is held in conjunction with the IFBB Pro League Wings of Strength Arizona Pro, which features every IFBB Pro League division for women on the stage.

Helle says some women don't want to look that muscular, but empathized that this is 2016 and that it's not a time to tell women what they can and cannot be.

Helle comes in fourth place. She said the judges must be looking for a look that they're going for and she didn't have, so she's going to improve by getting some feedback from the judges and work on it. She says she will come back next year and take the title next year (which she does do at the 2017 Rising Phoenix World Championships).
