Boy wins girls’ skiing championship by pretending to be a girl, causing controversy.

Male Athlete Wins Women’s Ski Championship, Sparks Outrage

“It’s one thing to read about these things happening in other places and quite another to witness it first-hand.”

A male athlete who identifies as a female has won the women’s slalom race in the California-Nevada Interscholastic Ski & Snowboard Federation, sparking outrage from the father of a female member of a California high school ski team. In an exclusive interview with the U.K. Daily Mail, the anonymous father lashed out at officials and lawmakers who have allowed male athletes to compete on girls’ sports teams.

The man chose to be interviewed anonymously to protect his daughter’s privacy and avoid the “relentless backlash” that others have encountered who have spoken out against males competing in women’s sports.

Unfair Advantage

“You ruin women’s sports by allowing males to compete in women’s sports,” he said. “Hormones and drugs are just introducing drugs into sport. It’s not fair on the girls.”

“It’s pretty clear to me or anyone with a brain that if you are going through or have gone through male puberty then you should only race against people who have gone through or are going through male puberty,” the father added.

Transgender Athlete Wins Girls’ Ski Race, Sparks Controversy

A transgender athlete has won a girls’ ski race in California, reigniting the debate over whether transgender athletes should be allowed to compete in sports based on their gender identity.

Since 2013, the California Interscholastic Federation has allowed transgender students to compete in sports and activities “consistent with their gender identity.” However, critics argue that this policy gives transgender athletes an unfair advantage over their cisgender counterparts.

Former NCAA Swimmer Speaks Out

Former NCAA All-American swimmer Riley Gaines has been a vocal critic of allowing transgender athletes to compete in women’s sports. Gaines recently drew attention to a high school track meet in California where at least two transgender runners were expected to compete against girls. Gaines argues that allowing transgender athletes to compete in women’s sports is unfair and that there should be an open class in every sport to level the playing field.

Common Sense Needed

The father of the female ski racer who lost to Watterson argues that young people have been “brainwashed” into accepting the current policy and that there needs to be a common-sense solution that takes biological differences into account. He suggests having an open class in every sport so that transgender athletes can compete without giving them an unfair advantage.

As the debate over transgender athletes in sports continues, it remains to be seen whether there will be any changes to current policies.
