Ironically the largest supporters of the BS.

That’s why years ago Ann Coulter said giving women the vote was a big mistake

Back in the 1970’s the school I worked for had to create a womens softball team in order for the boys to continue having a baseball team.

I don’t think any of the girls tried to join the baseball team, I don’t remember

I think this was when the title (insert number here) thingie came into being.

Yep. Women voting is why we are here now.
I have zero sympathy. They f’d us over first, and ruined the country.

The saddest thing for liberal elite women - like those on MSNBC - is mouthing the daily talking points written for them by white liberal ‘elite’ men.

Is that creepy or what?

Women fought for equal rights for decades so liberal bimbos could be ‘news’ people without ONE thought different than their handlers.

“...a womens softball team in order for the boys to continue having a baseball team.”

So what you are saying from your history is that since no women wanted to join the baseball team, they were going to cut the program? And you might want to consider that they didn’t create a women’s softball team, they created a program for women to use to justify the original boy’s program and the funding for it. It had nothing to do with the play, just the equality(?) of gender.

I agree with you that that is the backa$$ way of political correctness. But at that time it was the only way to get out of losing funded programs that had participation. And I’m sure it did cost to create the program with equipment, facility use, coaches pay if the faculty had any, and local contact for scheduling, tournament fees and coordination on all of it. And of course, was there even another team in the area so by creating a team it became nothing more than babysitting?

But this thread was about the bill that is saying if men can’t compete with women, period, then just as soon as women wish to enter into a sport with men as competition, then the men have to withdraw. So it doesn’t mean anything about the level of competition, even though this was only applied to post high school programs, it is about only protecting the capacity of women’s level of competition in a college atmosphere. Therefore if this bill was in place in Tennessee when that woman kicker was put in the men’s college game for publicity from Vanderbilt, the men legally would have had to walk off the field. (Or hold the ball for her) Sometimes the cure is worse than the illness.

And here’s a curveball: what happens to co-ed sports like cheerleading competitions? And if it is funded, any program that competes women and men? Then you can get down to preferences when two students, one male and one female trying to get a job within the areas identified in the funded sport and the man having to withdraw from a trainer’s job or even a coaches job? Oooo, this can get real political, real fast. But this is what you get with liberal politics as the Mississippi legislature is the second most liberal acting in the country only behind North Carolina according to the ACU foundation:
