re: Teen Athletes Challenge Policy Allowing Transgenders To Compete Against Girls

Cool. I don’t recall saying girls sports were your responsibility to fund. I have 2 boys, but I’m smart enough to realize sports are good for girls too

This policy certainly negatively impacts females and diminishes their opportunities to compete and receive benefits. It’s what Title IX was made to prevent. However, Inclusionism is so in-grained it will require a Supreme Court decision to protect female athletes.

Nice non sequitur. I was simply addressing the guy who basically said that not only is it ridiculous that "trans" men are competing in women's sports (which is true), but that women's sports themselves are ridiculous and shouldn't exist at all anyway. As a father with a daughter who loves to play sports and I see firsthand that it is good for her, I was simply saying that dude likely doesn't have a daughter or he might have a different perspective. That's all.

All these guys who don’t care about female sports probably refuse to date a fatty, too. Fit women start as fit girls.

Daily strength and conditioning for USTA playoffs and city finals next month. Because, you know, I’m a fit, athletic adult female.

It doesn't really matter what one's stance is on gender fluidity or transgenderism or whatever. The reason sports have separated males and females for competition has nothing to do with "gender preference", but rather has to do with genetics and biology. Sorry, if you are biologically a male, you shouldn't get to use your biological advantages in competing with the opposite sex that doesn't have those advantages.

On the flip side, I don't care if a biological female wants to compete in male sports. More power to her.
You lost me here. They need to stay with their kind for many reasons. And being a threat to win against a male isn't one of them.

Diminishing women's sports is not a good thing. I have a young daughter who loves sports and loves to compete as much as anyone. It's good for her physically, mentally, emotionally, etc. Sure the athletic level is different for her than it is for my son, but that doesn't mean it isn't every bit as good for her as it is for him. There is a reason most women's sports pale in comparison to men's sports from a spectator standpoint, and that is fine. But the ability of women to compete in sports should not be diminished.
Correct. Participating in athletics by girls is an overwhelming positive.
I just hope these girls are starting to realize that they have been tossed to the side by the radical left and the Democratic Party. And the gay community better figure out real quickly that as soon as there are more Muslim voters than homosexual ones in the USA (yay! Open Borders!), the Democratic Party will turn on them.
