What's stopping us from allowing 'females' to play revenue generating sports and dump more scholarships into football, baseball, and men's basketball?

Well played. Very.
But dumb it down for the moderates.

I'm very anti-trans men playiing women's sports. But, the prevalence of this is so low and the economic backlash likely to follow so severe that it's really unnecessary. Kind of like reverse virtue signaling

So you’re an unprincipled pussy?

Shocking, really.

So we should allow ourselves to be bullied and held for random by special interests? Not concerned about the precedent that sets?

Now...do the number of girls that will be affected by this. You know, the ones that will have to directly compete against them. The ones whose teams will lost games/matches/meets because of team scoring. The ones whose records will fall (or who would have set new records but for the mentally ill boy/man competing).

Bet that number is higher than the potential jobs lost.

As someone noted earlier, allowing trans to compete in girls/women's sports is the height of misogyny.

There are solutions to every problem.

One thought is to educate the children outside of public school system.

B. With private education, create private sporting leagues within, and governance within.

iii. Grow this to the college level and do away with the EN-SEE-EH-EH.

Lot of work for something great.

Are you serious, Clark? How else could this possibly be decided?


Uhh... by the sports sanctioning body in the state? Since it's a sports issue?

The playoff split has caused a lot more damage than a few girly men ever have, and the privates can't get on the same page about that. You think they can agree on running their own association?

It would have taken less time to simply type out, "I'm a coward."

Sometimes doing the right thing requires actual risk. What you have done here is weighed your personal potential losses versus at least SOME young women who will undoubtedly be effected by nonaction. I'm sure they appreciate your cost-benefit analysis here.

This is ultimately the biggest problem we face with most of the things currently plaguing us. Very few are willing to stand up and actually risk anything to fight for their principles, if they even have any. This is a perfect example of an issue that can still be nipped in the bud if normal, sane people actually speak out and stand up for what they believe. Otherwise, we'll be 5-10 years down the line and this issue will be entirely lost, and we won't be looking at your hypothetical 3.5 boys who think they are girls playing girls sports, but far more. Look around...we're essentially at the bottom of the slippery slope now and all we have to do is look back up to the top to see where we were recently and how we ignored the obvious warning signs in favor of comfort or risk avoidance.

Good for you.

Yet when it comes to a government actively promoting the mutilation and chemical castration of the otherwise functional sexual organs of children, cost-benefit analyses and/or utilitarian arguments are not only wrongheaded, they are a form of immorality.

Why do people want boys to dominate girls sports?


Its the boys who want to dominate girls because most are too limp to dominate in boys sports. Or they like the idea of making like a girl to get in the girls locker room to try and get in something else. Sad.

Have you noticed they’ve quietly shifted the narrative from “equality” to “equity.” Those are not the same thing.
