New Study Exposes Some Hard Truths About Transgenders in Sports

A brand-spanking new study has revealed a profound truth about men and women that might just shock the world. The study, which analyzed the performances of non-binary athletes in running events, revealed that biological males were faster than biological females.

Yes, this is an earth-shattering finding of immense proportions. Surely, the halls of academia will be overtaken with surprise and will finally concede that pitting biologically male athletes against females is a profound error, won’t they?

All sarcasm aside, the study examined performance among athletes who identified as non-binary, meaning they do not align with either male or female genders. The researchers found that there was “no evidence that controlling for age natal-sex differences in running performance are lower among non-binary athletes” and that “natal-male non-binary athletes outperform natal-female non-binary athletes at a confidence level of p=0.1%.”

The authors of the study continued:

The differential between natal male and natal female performances is better explained by differences in sex than differences in gender identity as this differential persists for our non-binary cohort. This provides evidence against the theory that an individual’s gender-identity plays a significant role in these disparities in addition to their sex.

In English, this means that biological males run faster than biological females, and this reality is due to birth sex, not the gender with which one identifies.

Basically, the study proved what everyone knows from the time they are children: Men are physically stronger than, and different from, women. The fact that we even needed a study to confirm this shows the depravity to which Western society has descended due to the hard left and their misguided focus on “inclusion.”

Indeed, leftist orthodoxy has prompted a fringe but loud minority of “woke” actors to use whatever means necessary to compel the rest of the world to conform to their stupid ideas about gender and sexuality. These people have literally embarked on a crusade to convince society that men and women are no different despite what everyone can see with their own eyes.

Since these people know they can’t possibly convince most folks that people can switch their gender, they try to pressure people into embracing these silly ideas. They label you a bigot if you dare to suggest that there are only two sexes and that men can’t become women. Using their institutional power, they create environments in which some people have been too afraid to speak out.

As a result, we have seen far too many instances in which biological males are competing in women’s sports despite the unfair advantage they possess. Even in combat sports like Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, female athletes are often placed in positions where they have to square off against males. Several stories reveal instances in which female volleyball players are injured after competing against biological male players.

Along with the physical risks, allowing men to compete with women has robbed several female athletes of valuable opportunities, especially in college. The University of Washington sparked controversy after it offered a scholarship to a biological male volleyball player who identifies as a female.

A report revealed that the University of Washington has offered a scholarship to Tate Drageset, a transgender female volleyball player.

This development comes after a slew of stories in which female volleyball players have suffered serious injuries after competing with biological males.

Reduxx has learned that a volleyball player from California is reportedly set to become the first known male recipient of a women’s Division 1 (D1) athletic scholarship. Tate Drageset, 17, has verbally committed to the University of Washington, and, if the offer is signed next fall, he would be seizing one of only twelve D1 volleyball scholarships available for females at the University.

The announcement of Drageset’s verbal commitment to the University of Washington was made in June to much fanfare within the volleyball community, with multiple sporting magazines and social media accounts covering the verbal commitment.

Drageset has long been considered a rising star within women’s volleyball, and he was the dominant force on two USA Volleyball teams in two separate age groups that both claimed national titles last summer. He was also named an MVP at the Girls Junior National Championships earlier this year. In addition to his club volleyball accolades, he was awarded the title of the California Interscholastic Federation’s Division 5 Player of the 2022-23 Year.

But Drageset’s transgender status has reportedly been concealed from public knowledge, with coaches, parents, and opposing players being left uninformed of his biological sex ahead of games.

An anonymous source told Reduxx that Drageset’s performance in women’s volleyball has “resulted in him being offered a rare, all-expenses-paid athletic scholarship intended for elite female athletes.” Drageset has verbally committed to attending the university.

Given that the university only gives out these scholarships two or three times a year, this means that female athletes who are actually deserving of the opportunity are being denied in favor of catering to the transgender crowd.

Unfortunately, there has not yet been enough pushback against the bizarre gender ideology coming from progressives. The hard left simply has too much institutional power, which has enabled it to bend much of society to its twisted will. However, this does not mean they are invulnerable. When enough people are finally willing to fight back, we can reverse what these people have done when it comes to attitudes toward gender identity.
