I support title IV which directly prohibits discrimination based on gender

What you are describing goes to make wrestling, make soccer, male baseball, male track and field. as well as other male sports.... do you mind that? I guess you also don't want your taxes to pay for roads and services for underdeveloped regions of your state or your country? I know exactly what I am saying. This iis what title IX says "No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance." So yes, I know exactly what I am saying when I said title IX prohibits discrimination based on gender/sex.
