## Key points

- Rapinoe says sport is not inherently fair.
- She supports transgender women’s participation in women’s sport.
- The article cites a Washington runner’s race results.

## Summary

Megan Rapinoe defended transgender women’s participation in women’s sport in an interview with comedian W. Kamau Bell, arguing that sport is inherently unfair and that access to play and human rights matter more than perceived competitive advantages. The article criticises her position and argues that it overlooks fairness and the experiences of female athletes.

Rapinoe said transgender athletes cannot simply declare themselves women and enter competition, and dismissed the idea that a high-profile male athlete might do so. The writer cites a Washington high-school runner who moved from the boys’ to the girls’ team and reportedly won one varsity race and placed second in three others. The supplied article ends mid-sentence, so it does not include the writer’s final point.
