A recent high school girls' 400m dash state championship has sparked controversy as a biological male athlete, identifying as female, won the competition. The fastest girl finished more than one second behind. Critics argue that allowing male athletes to compete in female sports showcases an undeniable male advantage, leading to public outrage. Had the athlete competed with boys, he wouldn't have managed 16th place, with the slowest boy finishing at 53.12, more than 2.5 seconds faster.

Washington organizers allow athletes to compete in programs consistent with their gender identity. The debate continues as the 2024 Olympic Games will no longer require trans athletes to undergo hormone treatments or procedures to compete in women's categories.

1- It’s not conservatives wanting to keep women’s sports female. It’s people living in material reality. 2- No one is asking to ban “transgender athletes.” We’re asking that we keep women’s sports female. 3- Transgender athletes can play in an open category. Or the category… https://t.co/qKcTs2ZVnY

Fortunately, gender ideologues have a problem with the sports issue; as more male athletes are allowed into female sports, the more we'll see undeniable displays of male advantage like this, prompting public outrage. This won't be an issue much longer. https://t.co/TdvWJHiDGm
