Poll: Should Males Who Identify As Females Be Allowed To Compete In Women’s Sports?

The issue of biological males who identify as females participating in women’s sports has come under increased scrutiny in recent months as more biological males have been allowed to compete against women in various sports across the country — often with high levels of success.

In February, two high school biological males who identify as females made headlines when they took first and second by significant margins in Connecticut’s indoor 55-meter dash state championship, thus bumping two biological females out of the chance to compete at higher levels. Last Friday, RAW Powerlifting Federation stripped multiple women’s championship titles from a biological male who lifted as a female, citing organization rules that are “based on physiological classification rather than identification.”
