DeSantis is just projecting himself into the narrative for exposure, imo.
You are agreeing with Ron DeSantis?Based on the reaction of the spectators at the meet, I’d say they agree with DeSantis
Just about everything.Republicans whining again? Tell me something I don't know.
You funnyJust about everything.
Maybe it's time we started worrying less about who can swim to the end of a pool and back the fastest, or who can kick/hit/throw a ball the best, and worry about actual issues in this country/world when there are real, legit problems going on.Thats exactly what he is doing, and he'll gain much popularity as a result of it IMO.
Democrats have got to stop shooting themselves in the foot with these well intentioned but very scatter brained social "justice" issues.
Its one thing to say a transgender has a right to exist and live as they want, I agree with that, and another thing entirely to say "Oh you are exactly like a woman, you should be able to compete against women in sports and to hit the ladies showers." Thats just preposterous. I read this Mia fella hasn't even had his junk removed, dont know if thats true and I'm not about to check him for a bulge but thats what I read earlier. Thats a DUDE, not a woman. SHEEESH!
The GOP lost the WH, Senate and House in 4 years. Tired of winning?Just about everything.
I’d say if you are a young woman competing in NCAA swimming, this is a real, legit problem.Maybe it's time we started worrying less about who can swim to the end of a pool and back the fastest, or who can kick/hit/throw a ball the best, and worry about actual issues in this country/world when there are real, legit problems going on.
Sports are entertainment. People are starving and dying while other people kvetch that someone with a penis something something against someone with a vagina something something in a concrete hole filled with water.I’d say if you are a young woman competing in NCAA swimming, this is a real, legit problem.
What we're doing here as a society is allowing the transgender population (0.4%) to ruin what women (50%) have worked their asses off to achieve. I have an idea, let's have a separate LBGQTXYZ+ (whatever else they have like the feminists) sports league (minor, major, olympics, etc...) where their men can kick the shit of their "women" all day long in all sports. I'll actually watch that on TV, because there's nothing more satisfying then watching liberals choke on their own hypocrisy. In the mean time, the hetero population will continue to respect women by letting them have their own all biological women's sports.Desantis is right. Obviously. Allowing men to compete in womens sports, destroys womens sports.
Yawn.Sports are entertainment. People are starving and dying while other people kvetch that someone with a penis something something against someone with a vagina something something in a concrete hole filled with water.
Why do you hate women?Sports are entertainment. People are starving and dying while other people kvetch that someone with a penis something something against someone with a vagina something something in a concrete hole filled with water.
And DeSantis isn't in charge of the NCAA and how they choose to manage their entertainment.Yawn.
It isn’t an “either/or” choice.
Luckily, the NCAA isn’t in charge of solving world hunger, so dealing with the issue of trans and women’s sports won’t be diverting their attention away from world hunger.
Compete on the team of your biological gender or compete in intramural, community, etc leagues instead.

I wish I could have the 0.5 seconds of my life back I wasted reading this post.Why do you hate women?
I agree, that DeSantis is looking to up his profile, but he's correct in that Lia should not be competing against natural born women. I'm fine with her being considered a "her", but she has the body of a man, in shape and form. Longer arms, broader shoulders, larger hands, etc., all make it unfair to have her competing against women. It sucks, sure, but it really isn't fair to the other women. Trans-women need their own league.This is a contentious issue and I understand both positions. This example will probably end up as something that history will remember. That being said, DeSantis is just projecting himself into the narrative for exposure, imo.
It's your own fault if you're wasting your time.I wish I could have the 0.5 seconds of my life back I wasted reading this post.

There are countless social swimming leagues in the Greater Philadelphia area (where Thomas is). That’s where they should have been swimming - not on the women’s team.
Hopefully, the NCAA sets a bar high enough to put an end to this and only one season of women’s swimming is ruined.
Maybe it's time we started worrying less about who can swim to the end of a pool and back the fastest, or who can kick/hit/throw a ball the best, and worry about actual issues in this country/world when there are real, legit problems going on.
It is a faulty assumption that most replies are worth reading. Thanks for the reads up on yours!It's your own fault if you're wasting your time.
Yes, he’s a politician.And DeSantis isn't in charge of the NCAA and how they choose to manage their entertainment.
Glad we could finally get to the point here. DeSantis isn't governor of the NCAAA or sports. If having these little tantrums are what he chooses to spend his time on, it shows what a clown he is. There are real issues for politicians to work on, and every second the waste whining about ENTERTAINMENT is time not spent on real issues.
There are real issues in the world people face right now.
