Transgender Boy Wins Girls' State Wrestling Title For Second Time
On February 24th, Beggs beat fellow wrestler Chelsea Sanchez in the Class 6A Region II tournament in Cypress, Texas, to claim the state wrestling title. His win was met with mixed cheers and boos from spectators. Asa Merritt, a West Texas reporter speaking to NPR, said that “there was jeering and jawing.” He added “People said things like, you know, ‘He doesn’t belong there. He should be on a different mat.’ It was really intense.”
Beggs has faced controversy on his way up to the top. The UIL permits Beggs to participate while taking testosterone because it’s a low dose and it’s prescribed by a physician, but many of the parents of his fellow wrestlers are angry that he is competing against girls.

This is not as it seems. This trans boy was born a female and has been fighting to be allowed to wrestle in the boys league, but the TX laws prohibit it. Although Beggs has been taking hormone replacement therapy for a year and a half, and has repeatedly asked to wrestle as part of the boy’s league, Texas’ University Interscholastic League has barred him because of the “F” on his birth certificate.

Sports will take the same path as the Boy/Girl Scouts.
You thought he would have tried to look the part of a girl by shaving his armpits. I'm surprised the girls haven't hazed this trans-it, or possibly done worse by cutting his junk down to their female equivalency.
