And thus with that lie being blown right out of the water, some feminists (mostly lesbians at this point) are starting to retreat from that position, believe it or not. Some have.

Secondly, the trans people, at odds more and more with some lesbians, are still plodding forward ignoring the reality that a male thinking he is a female does not make it so.

Let private organizations run their own athletic programs -- with their own standards for eligibility.

That won't work either. The Boy Scouts are a great example.

Make trannies run against other trannies. That’s totally fair.

Is there even one case of a girl trying to compete and boys sports ?

There have been a few, and though they are seldom successful they are often praised for being "gutsy".

If you “identify” as something, that makes it true and the left will use the power of the state to force people to accept politically correct but subjective standards.

OK, I identify as a rich guy. Where's my money?

The Boy Scouts destroyed themselves. Right-minded people have been abandoning that organization in droves and creating their own alternative groups. That’s what I’m saying female athletes should be doing.

Leftists would say “same-gender teams”. Sex and gender are not synonymous. The issue with sports teams, change rooms and bathrooms is biological sex, not the social-psychological construct “gender”. Don't conflate the terms — that just plays into “their” hands, and makes rational discussion of the issue impossible.

Well, this is what the libs wanted, now they got what they wished for.

Too BAD!
Those chickens get a little large when they come home to roost!

I have no, none, zero, nada, zippo sympathy for any of these “sports organizations”.

according to a new poll, they are part of a silent majority that opposes allowing transgender athletes to play on teams that don’t correspond to their biological sex.

Too bad, you get what the courts say you get.

These biological male athletes competing against biological female athletes have blown that lie right out of the water.

Don't be silly every action TV show has 100 lb women regularly beat up a couple 200+ pound men.

It's in the bank you just have to figure out how to get it.

60/40 is an easy landslide ratio — typically the women’s vote in favor of the Democrat agenda.

Your point is supported by a demographic subset, but as a whole, we’re here because of the women’s vote — unfortunately.

That scenario occurred to me, the first time I heard of this. I used to think it was unlikely. Then, I learned how much people are willing to pay, to get into college; to say nothing of the scholarship $. Could happen.

Transgender Athletes = Cheaters
What next they get to box with little girls if they can’t handle the real arena.
