Washington’s top education official Chris Reykdal is, in fact, uneducated. He has taken a shocking leap away from common sense 鈥� and science 鈥� to prop up a progressive fantasy, claiming in a speech defending transgender athletes in girls鈥� sports that it is 鈥渋naccurate鈥� to say that there are only two genders. There are, however, only two genders.

Reykdal that biology itself is a continuum, an assertion that not only flies in the face of centuries of scientific research but also threatens the very foundation of fair competition in our schools. But can we really be shocked that the Washington Superintendent of Public Instruction holds this radical belief?

During his address, Reykdal insisted that the binary view of biology is outdated.

“It is quite simply inaccurate to say, biologically, that there are only boys and there are only girls,” Reykdal said. “There’s a continuum. There’s a science to this. There are children who are born intersex. There are children whose hormones and whose chromosomes are not consistent with their sex at birth.”

Intersex people represent under 0.07% of Americans. It has nothing to do with the debate on 迟谤补苍蝉驳别苍诲别谤听athletes competing based on gender identity. And it’s a transparent ploy to manipulate the conversation.

Chris Reykdal makes a聽谤别补濒濒测听bad argument

Superintendent Chris Reykdal is using the mere existence of intersex people to justify a legal framework where a child鈥檚 gender identity, rather than biological sex, should determine athletic participation. He’s purposefully confusing gender with gender聽identity.

To bolster his claim, he pointed to a minuscule statistic: out of nearly a quarter million students, only about five to ten have identified as transgender in interscholastic athletics. Yet, for him, even this tiny fraction is reason enough to rewrite the rules of science and sport. Even if it means biological girls face safety threats in competitions or lose scholarship and medal opportunities as a result.

What is most astonishing about Reykdal鈥檚 argument is its blatant disregard for fundamental biological principles.

Democrats claim to believe in science. They apparently don’t.

Science tells us that biological sex is determined by well-understood genetics and hormones, resulting almost invariably in a male or female classification.

Yes, intersex conditions do occur, but they are extremely rare exceptions. By invoking these anomalies, Reykdal twists scientific fact into a political tool, using the language of civil rights to mask what is essentially an ideological maneuver. His assertion that there鈥檚 鈥渁 science to this鈥� is misleading at best 鈥� it is an appeal to a science that his own claims don’t support.

Even more troubling is the way Reykdal鈥檚 narrative sidesteps the critical issue of fairness in sports.

When a biological male with inherent physical advantages in strength, speed and endurance, competes against biological females, athletic competition is undermined. It’s effectively cheating. Rather than acknowledging these legitimate concerns, Reykdal defends gender identity for political gain.

Subverting science for political gain

Reykdal, a former Democratic lawmaker, is now championing policies designed to subvert centuries of scientific consensus in favor of a politically correct, woke narrative to earn him social currency with the Radical Left. He doesn’t seem to care that his position actively harms girls.

Facts and logic should guide policy. So why are we ditching well-established scientific principles? Reykdal鈥檚 remarks are not a nuanced discussion of gender identity but a reckless redefining of science to suit political ends. And this from the state’s chief education chief? It’s hardly inspiring to students that the superintendent acts as if he’s never picked up a science textbook.

For the sake of fair competition in sports 鈥� and for the integrity of our education system 鈥� Reykdal should be ignored. Our public schools, and young female athletes, would be better off.
