Or they can compete in a sport that conforms to their gender identity. Now, if you want to put stipulations like "Must have undergone gender-affirming treatment for at least one year," I'd be fine with that.
How about āmust have had gender affirming genital surgery?ā
Then it begs the question, if women swimmers can't even beat a mediocre male, why have a sport at all?
Oh, yeah, Title IX money.
Iāll answer that one once more and then ignore it.
We have title 9 so that females can have the benefits of athletics. It was mocked by misogynists like yourself, but it gave millions of young women a chance to participate. I know girls who have benefitted very much. That's what public school is for, to provide benefit to the students, using the taxes that their communities pay.
It is not intended to be a one-sport football machine, chasing advertising dollars on their scoreboards and programs. That should be a side benefit, not the full purpose.
Donāt like it, campaign to change the law. But we shouldnāt have males doing an end run around the law, by growing a pony tail and singing "I enjoy being a girl" as they cross the finish line several yards ahead of the former school female track champion. If this keeps up, each school will have two all male teams for each sport other than football. Oh, except for volleyball, which will have that all male Girls-in-Name-Only Team.
You have to respect people for who they are.
Look, man I realize you have the insecurities, but that's not my problem.
Really? I have respect racists, misogynists, theocrats, thieves, and rapists for who they are?
Why?
Actually, I'm not wasting time refuting how this case was misrepresented by the RW Media.
Washington Post is RWmedia? The convictions (or their junvenile court equivalent) are real. If you want to relitigate them, be my guest. But bring facts not spin.
A prosecutor said in Loudoun County juvenile court Monday that the 15-year-old forced the victim into an empty classroom at Ashburnās Broad Run High School in October, before touching her breast.
Last month, the same teen was found responsible in Loudoun County juvenile court for forcing another girl to perform sex acts in May in a bathroom at Stone Bridge High School, where the defendant attended school before transferring to Broad Run.
You shouldn't get all your news from this forum, fun though it is.
Short version- he was in a consensual relationship with the girl in the first case. They had hooked up many times in that bathroom, not because of a trans-policy, but because they knew the staff never checked that bathroom between classes.
Now, relationship abuse IS wrong, and he should have been held accountable for that. I just don't mistake an abusive relationship for "Trannies are EEEEvil".
Itās not about trannies being evil. Itās about school policies that cover up and enable sexual assault.
Suppose a female staffer checked the girls bathroom and saw an obvious male in a skirt? What should that staffer do?
