Americans Less Supportive Of Transgenders In Women's Sports

[Independentthinker]

Democrats are always saying we should rule by public opinion. So, what do they have to say about this? Will they accept public opinion on the matter, or is it full steam ahead toward wokieland?



Americans are less supportive of transgender athlete participation in single-gender sports than they were two years ago, a national survey has found, even as more people say they know someone who is transgender.

The findings, gleaned from Gallup’s annual Values and Beliefs poll, suggest Americans see the issue more as one of competitive fairness than of transgender civil rights, said Jeff Jones, a senior editor for the public opinion polling firm.

Support fell for transgender athletes being able to play for teams aligned with their gender identity even among those who said they knew a transgender person, Jones said.

“That’s a surprising finding,” he said. “It definitely looks like most people see it as a fairness issue. Even Democrats are divided, and we see that independents, who are generally supportive of LGBTQ policies, are also opposed overall.”

Gallup’s telephone survey of 1,011 U.S. adults was conducted last month. It found that 69% of Americans say transgender athletes should be restricted to sports teams that conform with their birth gender, compared to 62% in 2021.

Likewise, the findings showed that just 26% of Americans support transgender athletes playing for teams matching their gender identity, compared to 34% two years ago.

Democrats say we should be run by public opinion so long as it agrees with them as they elect democrats.

Otherwise, society is systemically racist and needs transformed so that public opinion matches the hold grail of truth within the democrat party.

Nobody with a lick of sense thinks biological males competing with biological females is fair

So 8% more finally figured out that their virtue-signaling on the issue was BS. I guess the rest are just retarded.

I never thought I would see the day that society could be transformed from sanity.

If the DNC wanted, I think they could convince the populace of virtually anything, like convincing them the sky is really pink.

There is no Democratic party anymore. They have been replaced by the Woke Socialist party.

.....And that rainbows is gawd's way of affirming faggots.

I'm not supportive of trannies in any fashion. Especially not when they want to play in women's sports.

I'm sure as individuals there are a small handful of trannies that are decent people. But trannies as a whole? Fuck em.

Good to see. I am all for some calling themselves a different gender if they like, but that does not include playing a sport you are the wrong sex for.

There is a simple fix for this, base sports on the sex listed on a birth certificate.

Yeah, I don't really give a shit if men want to dress up in women's clothes. It's no skin off my ass. But don't go trying to convince everyone it's normal and don't go indoctrinating children that it is normal. And men should use men's bathrooms and do men's sports and women should use women's bathrooms and do women's sports. And don't give me any shit that men can get pregnant and have children and abortions.

Except, in the future, woke parents will be able to list their born children as being whatever sex the parents choose them to be, despite what their chromosomes say.

Doubtful.

What is "normal" and who gets to define what is normal and what is not?

 

[Independentthinker]

Doubtful.

Several years ago is was doubtful that we would be this woke today.

Percentages determine normal. If 90% are one way and 10% are a different way, the 10% are not normal.

So, it is not normal to be left handed, red headed, a US Marine or a marathon runner.

Correct, for the most part.

No they don’t. Not in a society that respects individual rights.

I’m seriously allergic to eggs. As an adult I asked my mother why she kept feeding me eggs and she replied “Because eggs are good for you”. I replied “Not they’re not. Eggs are good for YOU. They make me throw up”.
