Abstract

Using data from the National Sports and Society Survey (N = 3,993), this study considers U.S. public opinion about transgender athletes’ rights, rights for athletes with varied sex characteristics, sex testing, and gender segregation in sports. Social structural location, social group, and ideological characteristics are examined as predictors of these opinions. Results indicated that most U.S. adults seem to support transgender athletes’ rights and rights for athletes with varied sex characteristics and oppose sex testing and gender segregation in youth sports. Men, heterosexuals, older generations, those without a college education, Republicans, Christians, and rural residents, as well as those who exhibit more traditionalism and traditionally gendered beliefs in their ideologies, were more opposed to athletes’ rights and inclusivity on these issues.

体育运动中性别/性别的重构、挑战与协商:美国公众对跨性别运动员权利、变性运动员权利、性别检测和性别隔离的看法

本研究使用国家体育与社会调查(N = 3993)的数据，考虑了美国公众对跨性别运动员权利、不同性别特征运动员权利、性别检测和体育运动中的性别隔离的看法。社会结构位置、社会群体和意识形态特征是这些观点的预测因素。结果表明，大多数美国成年人似乎支持变性运动员的权利和不同性别特征运动员的权利，反对在青少年体育项目中进行性别检测和性别隔离。男性、异性恋者、老一辈、没有受过大学教育的人、共和党人、基督徒和农村居民，以及那些在意识形态中表现出传统主义和传统性别信仰的人，在这些问题上更反对运动员的权利和包容性。
