Gallup: Nearly 70 percent polled don't think biological males should compete on girls' teams

This Gallup poll is being reported on by NBC News, which as we like to point out, has special categories like NBC BLK and NBC OUT. This story is filed under NBC OUT, which is dedicated to pumping out pro-LGBTQ news stories. We're pretty certain NBC OUT has reported on "experts" saying that biological males have no physical advantages in sports at some point.

This reminds us a little bit of the move to eliminate the Electoral College, which only became a thing with the Left when Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump. Conservatives rightly point out that the Electoral College keeps small states from getting steamrolled by California and New York every election. But that's not Democracy!

So when Gallup says nearly 70 percent of U.S. adults don't think biological males should compete in girls' sports (and share girls' locker rooms and showers), where's Democracy? An overwhelming majority is being overridden by a tiny minority led by President Joe Biden, who has vowed to veto any legislation protecting girls' sports.

Nearly 70% of U.S. adults say that trans athletes should only be allowed to compete on sports teams that correspond with the sex they were assigned at birth, according to a new report from Gallup. https://t.co/vc9yNnj2jo

Matt Lavietes reports for NBC OUT:

More Americans than before oppose transgender athletes competing in sports that align with their gender identity and say transitioning genders is “morally wrong,” according to a report from Gallup released Monday.
The survey — conducted from May 1 to May 24 via telephone interviews with roughly 1,000 adults living in the U.S. — found that 69% of people say that transgender athletes should only be allowed to compete on sports teams that correspond with the sex they were assigned at birth, compared with 62% in 2021. It also shows that a slightly higher share of Americans, 55%, consider “changing one’s gender” to be more “morally wrong” than in 2021, when it was 51%.
Gallup’s findings come amid an unprecedented number of anti-LGBTQ bills, 491, introduced by conservative lawmakers in state legislatures across the country, according to the American Civil Liberties Union, with the majority of the legislation affecting trans Americans.
“The attacks on trans people have been very acute and vicious,” Alejandra Caraballo, a trans activist and clinical instructor at Harvard Law School’s Cyberlaw Clinic, said. “It’s basically been the only thing that the far-right talks about so it’s not surprising that, in light of all of these concentrated attacks against trans people, that support has started to dip.”
