Boy Wins State Honors In Girls' Track & Field Events
-In Alaska, high school students can decide if they’re a boy or a girl when playing sports.
You don’t need to undergo “hormone treatment” or “sex reassignment therapy” or anything.
If you’re a boy and you say you feel like a girl – poof! – you’re a girl. And you compete with the girls.
Apparently, that’s what Nattaphon Wangyot did. And he made it all the way to the state finals.
The Haines senior advanced to the finals placing fifth in the 100-meter dash and third place in the 200-meter dash.
Wangyot is a boy. Biologically a male, but told the school he identifies as a female – so he competes against the girls.
For anyone remotely familiar with biology, this is a rather unfair advantage. Males are generally faster, stronger and better at most sports. It’s not sexist: It’s a fact.
The girls Wangyot competes against know that:
“I’m glad that this person is comfortable with who they are and they’re able to be happy in who they are, but I don’t think it’s competitively completely 100-percent fair,” Saskia Harrison told KTVA.
Another runner, Peyton Young, agreed: ““I don’t know what’s politically correct to say, but in my opinion your gender is what you’re born with,” she told the Alaska Dispatch News.
“It’s the DNA. Genetically a guy has more muscle mass than a girl, and if he’s racing against a girl, he may have an advantage.”
This matters because many of these girls are competing not just for the glory and honor of winning all-state, but because they’re competing for college scholarships. Some of these girls would never have a chance to further their education without doing well in these events – and having a biological male in there competing against them reduces their chances...

Just total insanity of course. Like Catchy says whoever it is she quotes, it's a mental illness.

The end result would be gender neutral sports and women can just forget about competing in any sport that is physical in nature. Why not doping neutral sports or rule neutral sports, in other words do whatever you want.

There is a south african middle distance runner who won international races for women and who is really a hermaphrodite. Later "she" has married a woman, which makes one wonder. I suppose the idea is that the person would come out as a woman in a sex test but Im not sure if anyone has bothered to actually perform such a test.
