A new poll finds that by a margin of nearly 3 to 1, respondents don’t think that it should be legal to provide minors with puberty blockers, drugs, and/or surgery to transition from one sex to the other. And by an even bigger margin, better than 7 to 1, respondents said that biological males who “identify” as female should not be permitted to compete in girls’ and women’s sports.
The Rasmussen Survey, conducted March 6 and 7 among 1,000 registered voters, also found that only 10% had ever introduced themselves using “preferred pronouns,” while fewer than half of those polled, 45%, had ever met someone who used their personal preferred pronouns to introduce themselves.
Some 73% of respondents said they disagree with biological males who “identify” as female being allowed to compete in girls’ and women’s sporting events. Only 10% of participants supported permitting biological males to compete in female athletics.
Only 22% of voters support minors having access to so-called gender-affirming care, such as puberty blockers, transitioning drugs, and surgeries, with 64% participants against it.
