Support for policies allowing trans-identified athletes to play on sports teams that align with their stated gender identity as opposed to their biological sex continues to decline, as survey data shows nearly seven in 10 Americans oppose such rules.

Gallup released the results of a survey documenting Americans' views on LGBT issues on Tuesday. The data included in the poll is based on responses collected from 1,003 American adults from May 1 to 18. The survey has a margin of error of +/- 4 percentage points.

When asked if they thought that "transgender athletes should only be allowed to play on teams that match their birth gender," 69% of Americans answered in the affirmative. The overwhelming majority of Republicans (90%), as well as a majority of independents (72%) and a significant share of Democrats (41%), agreed with this view.

Allowing men to compete in women's sports is oppression against women.
And, Deuteronomy 22:5 says, "Women must not pretend to be men, and men must not pretend to be women. The Lord your God is disgusted with people who do that."
I'd love for 100% of each political party to oppose men competing in women's sports.
Also, a transgender that competes in women's boxing or in women's cage fighting is a man that beats up on women.
