Of course. Was there any question this pervert would do this?

Does the RINO legislature have a backup plan?

Good.

Maybe this will wake some women up.

I doubt it, but maybe.

Women have been demanding all the benefits of equality without having to endure the detriments. This should do away with all the Title IX nonsense when it comes to school sports.

Next up, women should have to register for Selective Service.

You want equality, you got equality.

[Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf, a Democrat, said Monday that he will veto a bill banning transgender athletes from playing women’s sports in the state, should it pass the state legislature, reported the Hill.

“I’ll veto this discriminatory bill if it gets to my desk,” he tweeted.]

That’s the way to double-down, Wolf! Put those men into women’s games! Now THERE’S some social justice!

I wonder if women and girls who are disenfranchised from playing sports can turn around and sue him. I don’t think they can, but it sure would be nice to see.

There is nothing discriminatory in recognizing that women have lower mass and strength than men and designing sports programs accordingly.

So weird, the left used to claim that it championed women’s causes. Now, the left is at the forefront of forcing women out of sports completely by allowing men to take over the teams. How is that NOT discriminatory?

In the elementary school I attended (K-6) it was an annual tradition for the sixth grade boys to take on the sixth grade girls in a tug-of-war on one of the last few days of the school year. This was a good old-fashioned tug-of-war using a thick rope with a rag tied in the center, and everyone pulling for all they’re worth.

As was the case about nine years out of ten, we boys lost to the girls. We couldn’t believe how strong the girls were. We didn’t stand a chance and they dominated the pure strength competition during the entire ten or fifteen seconds that it lasted.

According to the teachers, at the age of 11 to 12, girls tend to be more physically developed than boys, and about 90% of the time the girls won the annual tug-of-war. So our loss, humiliation, and falling down in a pathetic pile were no surprise to them.

Soon after that age the physical development of boys accelerates and muscle mass develops beyond that of the chicks. It didn’t happen soon enough for us.

You may very well be correct about Wolf being mentally ill. He is a democRAT after all.

But remember Wolf is the governor who hired this sexually confused man, Richard Levine, as his secretary of health. I think I read it was also his cousin.

And then Biden thought it was a good idea to hire it as his assistant health secretary.

Its only qualifications for either position was that it was transgender.

It has nothing to do with me and as long as the coaches, the schools, politicians and voters want it, who am I to stand in their way.

No legal recourse as long as the coaches and schools don’t open their mouths.

Okay, so taking the cue from high school sports, the Army will have to adopt the same policies as the high schools. Which means no more giving girl-recruits lower standards or help getting over obstacles. After all, that stuff doesn't apply in a high-school foot-race between girls and trannies, where they let the trannies' victories stand.

That's a relief, in a way, since at least the combat forces' standards would be able to keep or revert to their blood & guts standards, and remain all-male.

And I guess the actual women would be working KP. Which would be an improvement, right?

See how a maniacal obsession with the idea of "equality" can bring things back to normal after all?

I would hope the ladies will protest by not participating; but then they’d be suspended for being diverse or something.

Tom Wolfe, a Democrat, hates women.

If the legislature refuses to override, it’s not all on Wolf.
