Florida is now the ninth state to pass legislation preventing trans females from participating in school sports consistent with their gender identity.


A decision, of course, that I can get behind and support. :)

What are your thoughts?
 
We did this already -- multiple times.
 
By "trans females" they mean "males," right? So why would males be competing in female sports events? Seems pretty reasonable, since females should have sports opportunities (including scholarships) on par with males.
Wokeness opposes all things moral and rational - it defies science; its need for destruction is insatiable.
 
It is a victory indeed.

In the article, they mentioned that it could be unconstitutional. I don't think this claims holds up, because the bill is not forbidding trans female athletes from participating in all sports. It's just preventing them from participating in female-only sports, which only makes sense, because trans-females are physically male.

Note to the trans-community: just because you don't get your way, it does not mean it's now an instance of injustice.

Good for him.
 
World records male deadlift is like 1150 lbs and females record deadlift is like 660 lbs or something like that. There is definitely a difference.
 
They are not banned from sports. Why lie?

Totally disagree with it. Let's think about the kids first. This ruling ignores them.

Bans like these are thinking about the kids, more specifically the biologically female kids who are owed a fair opportunity to complete.

(Our friends on the left have a remarkable blind spot on when it comes to this issue. They only ever think of the trans kids.)

My thoughts? Conservatives totally lost the war on lgbq’s so they’ve founds a new specter in trans-gendered people.

Without an imaginary villain in your perpetual culture war you guys would be lost.

Well, They are kids too. Trans-kids didn't choose their lot, and life is not perfectly fair. I don't like ruining a kid;s life(trans-kid) who wants to be a part of an activity but get's banned through no fault of their own, and gets hurt over cheap biases held by small minded people and political hacks.....

Nobody believes that conservatives are targeting transgender athletes because they legitimately care about women's sports.

Since when have conservatives stood up for women under any other circumstances? Not for abortion, not for birth control, and not when it comes to sexual assault or domestic violence.

So you can screw over the lives of trans people all you like, but don't pretend you're doing it because you care about girls or women.

It's funny how we are always on the receiving end of your side's issues, yet you're the ones with your fingers pointed. lol

Florida's had it with this lunacy and their response is appropriate.

Yes, you're the victims of trans-gender people.

Jesus Christ, you people are victims of everything.

When you allow altered males to compete against females in sports, you are definitely making those females the victims of an injustice. Due to unreasonable liberal policies many of us in the mainstream become victims also
 
hey, Republicans : better activate the alarm. a transgender female in Bumstick, Idaho just used the bathroom. to the Batcave!

And you're the victim of this. And how often has this happened? How many examples are there of men becoming women and then dominating in women's sports?

Do you even watch women's sports?

In your dreams.

Just keep your wacky politics to yourselves and we'll all get along nicely. ;)
 
Its unspeakably cruel.

In a topic about a law against transgender people, you said, "It's funny how we are always on the receiving end of your side's issues."

So you believe you're a victim of transgender people. There's no other way to interpret that.

And yet, in spite of you believing that you're a victim, it's transgender people who are having laws passed against them joining school sports.
