WALSH: On The Left, ‘Trans Rights’ Trumps Women’s Rights Every Time

This past Sunday, in what now seems to be a weekly occurrence, a man competed against a field of women in an athletic event and went home with the gold. Rachel McKinnon, a biological male who identifies as a woman, raced a bunch of actual women in the UCI Masters Track Cycling World Championships. To the great surprise of nobody, the gender-confused gentleman cycled his way to first place.

McKinnon, behaving rather unladylike in victory, gloated about his achievement and blasted his critics as neanderthalic bigots. The trans cyclist, whom we should note is a college professor, also declared that his testosterone and muscle mass do not give him any sort of physical advantage at all. He said “we have no idea” why men outperform women in athletic events. The subject of male biology is, according to the esteemed educator, “complicated as f**k.” He theorized that a man’s ability to run faster than a female is probably “sociological, not biological.” I should mention again that this individual is employed by an academic institution.
