A transgender female high school student in the United States won the gold medal in the women's high jump, which sparked heated discussions from all walks of life

A transgender female high school student in California, USA, who is a male biological sex, defeated her opponent in the California High School Athletics Championships on May 31 and won the gold medal in the women's high jump competition.

A transgender female high school student in the United States, whose biological sex is male, won the gold medal in the women's high jump, which caused heated discussions from all walks of life.

According to the Associated Press, transgender student A.B. Hernandez won the gold medal in the high jump on May 31 with a score of 5 feet 7 inches (about 1.7 meters), becoming the best player in the group.

However, the new format caused a lot of controversy before the game, some people thought that these transgender women should not compete in the same group as biological women, and US President Trump even threatened to stop federal funding for California, and during the May 30 qualifying tournament, a plane wearing a "boys can't play girls" banner hovered over the stadium for more than an hour.

The U.S. Department of Justice said it would investigate the event and the school district where Hernandez High School is located to determine whether it violated federal sex discrimination laws by allowing transgender women to compete with biological sex girls. According to a recent poll by the Associated Press, 7 percent of Americans believe transgender women should not be allowed to participate in women's sports, while about 9 percent of Republicans and about 5 percent of Democrats support this view.
