Nothing controversial about it IMO.

Edit: Oddibe (and a bunch of others) beat me to it!

It doesn't fit the game plan, just like covid mandates.

Funny how you never see trans boys or men (women pretending to be men) trying to complete against real boys or men.

idiot, ask the young ladies in Loundon CO Virginia who weren't safe in female safe spaces




My daughter's sports team lets them all practice together but competitions are separated according to biological gender.

And I don't want some tall, broad-shouldered, hairy, confused creature dangling his manly bits (or worse popping a boner) in front of her and her teammates in what SHOULD be a safe space for females.

Dishonesty. The argument isn’t about a “threat” but of an advantage based on gender.

quote:

“Trans kids and their families deserve our love and support


The bill signed does not say they don’t deserve love and support. By all means love and support them, just like how we love and support others who are suffering from mental illness. But what does that have to do with protecting sports for girls?

These are indirect attacks upon the battle readiness of U.S. Troops. The long-term goal is not to integrate sports, but to eliminate them altogether. For what is the purpose of sports within the grander education system? It is to prepare future troops for physical conditioning and to interbreed the most robust by pairing them up in their biological prime.

The attack is on the military by a very patient adversary.

Controversial? Are we in Bizzaro World?

In a normal, sane world, allowing males to compete with females would be controversial.

I think their declaration of an identity other than that to which they were born proves they are already suffering mental illness.

Not sure what’s controversial about males competing against males or females against females.

I don’t see any controversy in the least with this bill.

So if we find a kid who identifies as a dog, we can let them participate in dog fighting, but just not in texas? Awesome!

instead requiring that all students play on teams based on the gender assigned on their birth certificate.
This will be a problem in the future with states like California allowing non-biological designations on birth certificates.

I was pretty good at hoops in high school, but not tall enough for anything other than intramurals in college.

That being said, I would have absolutely decimate women's D1 basketball, full scholarship anywhere I wanted, etc
