I think in most cases trans should not be competing in women’s sports. But I’m not sure I see the need for a national law. Seems like it should be handled at an association level.
Last you heard? First you heard also, I guess. Since apparently the Mass Shooter scoreboard is Trans v. Not Trans, you have to be next level selective hearing to only see the 1 score Team Trans has pulled off. That has tightened the score, only down about 8000 now.
Agreed. But apparently Repubs think it should be banned at the national level. With abortion many Repubs say it should be left up to the state to decide. Why is that?
What's the compromise on this? I'm usually for a compromise like abortion rights, but with this it's either you let biological males compete in sports or you don't. I'm fine making a 3rd category but I don't want biological males competing against my daughter.
I completely disagree. When states are passing laws that prevent students from even discussing who they are in class under threat of penalty to the instructor, we have isolated and villified them. That is already eliminated any foundation for a rational discussion. As for Minority on Minority, which Minorities are you discussing? Because Republi-ban and their supporters are ~ 47% of Americans, the single largest group in politics. Further, most of the Republi-ban now find fighting the Culture War more important that addressing actual meaningful issues in our country. Marginalization and bigotry now more important that taking care of the elderly and ensuring the nation's fiscal solvency. Sounds just like the misdirection of hatred plan used by other "conservative" political leaders in Europe circa-1930. Poll: GOP voters say fighting "woke" ideology more important than stopping Social Security cuts
I'm fine with it being at the state level as well for children's and High School sports BUT when you have the NCAA let a biological male win an NCAA title that sort of makes a mockery of the situation.
@WESGATORS : good chance of discussion when the Republi-ban answer to dealing with Trans is for them to "Die".
That is way out of context. The only way for a man to compete in woman's sports it to be born a woman... PERIOD!
No it’s the GOP (Greedy Old Perverts) that are the party of hate. They don’t even try to hide it anymore. They hate people of color, LGBTQ and women. https://www.salon.com/2023/03/15/i-...she-got-punched-become-more-openly-pro-abuse/
endculturewars... You... freaking newbie... can just go back to where you came from. You don't even post and you drop nega-reps like their candy on Halloween. Do us all a favor and post your opinions so we can drop bombs on your posts. Drive by people don't last long here.
No, and neither sre most left of me. The problem is how to not disenfranchise that youth even more. I think they should compete as sex born until time certain (36 months?) after hormones equate to female levels. Seems reasonable but emotions and prejudice on both sides prevents reasonable solutions
Trans population is what .005%? Women are over 50%. Don’t disenfranchise or discourage the .005% because they want to compete? That makes sense.
