Almost 7 in 10 Americans say biological sex, not gender identity, should determine sports participation osvnews.com
A growing majority of Americans say athletes should compete on men’s or women’s sports teams that correspond to their biological sex rather than their gender identity, according to a June 12 Gallup poll.
The new poll found that 69% of U.S. adults said athletes who identify as transgender should only be allowed to compete on sports teams that match their biological sex. The findings represent an increase from a 2021 Gallup poll, when 62% of U.S. adults said the same.
Likewise, just 26% said athletes should be able to compete on men’s and women’s teams that conform to their own gender identity, instead of their biological sex. This is down from 34% in 2021.
