Megan Rapinoe Tells Girls, Parents To Suck It Up Over Trans Athletes

‘Your Kid’s’ ‘Volleyball Team Just Isn’t That Important’
quote:
Soccer superstar and political activist Megan Rapinoe argued in an interview published Sunday that female athletes and their parents need to suck it up over advantages biologically male transgender athletes might have over girls.
The forward told Time magazine she is “100% supportive” of “trans inclusion” in girls sports, dismissing concerns about fairness while emphasizing that people “need to understand that sports is not the most important thing in life.”
Rapinoe also argued that high-level sports are all about “regulation,” which the athlete apparently believes can erase trans athletes’ advantages. A recent study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine suggests that’s not true.
“I would also encourage everyone out there who is afraid someone’s going to have an unfair advantage over their kid to really take a step back and think what are we actually talking about here,” the 36-year-old said. “We’re talking about people’s lives. I’m sorry, your kid’s high school volleyball team just isn’t that important.”
quote:
Rapinoe went on to argue that not many girls have been shortchanged by transgender athletes, yet, anyway.
“Show me the evidence that trans women are taking everyone’s scholarships, are dominating in every sport, are winning every title. I’m sorry, it’s just not happening,” she said. “So we need to start from inclusion, period. And as things arise, I have confidence that we can figure it out. But we can’t start at the opposite. That is cruel. And frankly, it’s just disgusting.”
“We need to really kind of take a step back and get a grip on what we’re really talking about here because people’s lives are at risk,” Rapinoe added. “Kids’ lives are at risk with the rates of suicide, the rates of depression and negative mental health and drug abuse.”
“We’re putting everything through God forbid a trans person be successful in sports. Get a grip on reality and take a step back,” she said.

If there was any justice in this world, that stunned twat would lose her place to a chick with a dick.

How smug and arrogant of her. Left wing ideology requires one to forget they're human beings

It’s amazing how some people can be so unlikeable

I wish there was a guy like Ronaldo that was ultra right wing and would just "identify" as a woman for one year to prove a point. Probably score 10 points a match.

Didn't a 10th-grade boys team once beat the US women's team?

Barstool...this is your shinning moment. Get 11 mediocre male soccer players, pay them to identify as women. I'm talking a dude with a full beard with a little makeup a nd a wig on, just ham it the frick up. Dominate the Women's National team. Put Rapinoe on the bench with her purple hair. Watch the sentiment change. I'd pay a subscription fee to watch that mess.
