Title IX is relevant to gender discrimination, which is the basis of the lawsuit mentioned. It prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in any federally funded education program or activity, and its principles can extend to employment contexts in certain situations. Other options are incorrect because Title I does not specifically address gender discrimination, the Age Discrimination and Employment Act focuses on age rather than gender, and the Age and Gender Employment Protection Clause does not exist as a formal legal statute.
