A volleyball player left partially paralyzed by a transgender opponent has slammed the Olympics for letting biological men compete in women’s boxing.
Payton McNabb was 17 when a ball spiked by a trans opponent with force struck her in the face, threw her to the ground and shut off her consciousness.
The 5ft 11in player cackled in delight, Ms McNabb said, after sending her to the floor. As did other players in the opposite team.
Ms McNabb was left with brain damage and paralysis on her right side, which ended her dreams of getting a volleyball college scholarship and has made it difficult to walk without falling.
She told DailyMail.com it was ‘disgusting’ that trans women had been cleared to box women at this year’s Games in Paris. She fears women could suffer injuries worse than hers.
She said: ‘There is a biological difference between the two [trans women and women], there is a difference in sports because of this in the first place.
‘It’s dangerous to have the two [sexes] competing together, and just not ok. I am disgusted by this, personally. This is morally wrong and evil.
She added: ‘These women have worked so hard and trained tirelessly to get all the way to the Olympics, all so they can get punched in the face by a dude.
‘It used to be illegal for men to beat up women, and now people are putting it on TV and watching it. It’s such a weird reality we are living in now.’
