Would you compete?

I would not take part? Would you?

A trans-identified male dominated the WOMEN'S 200m Varsity at the Sherwood Need for Speed Classic in Sherwood, Oregon🇺🇸. Aayden Gallagher, a boy who "identifies" as a girl, set a new record after easily defeating his female competitors.

As for refusing to take part, as many PP have said - it's not a fair choice.

By refusing they risk scholarships of tens if not hundreds of thousands of pounds, a place at university, their entire future career, social ostracism that could follow them for life, and potentially even sanctions against their whole school in all sports.

It's not fair to ask that much of any individual - and especially of children and teens.
