10 trans athletes in all of the NCAA are robbing how many women of college scholarships????

You're using an elephant gun to kill an ant.

Not even close to half of the women voted in favour of this bill. There are only 31 women in the House who voted for this Bill, out of 125 women in the House. That's not even 1/4 of the women in the House. They vote for anything Republicans want or they get primaried.

In the Senate, there are 10 Republican women, out of 26 Senators.

So NO. The women in Congress did NOT support the bill.

You said "no women"

Those are women.

The ones voting against it are Dem tools.

If this is allowed to continue, there will be more.

And you ignore the ones at the high school level.

What right are women "giving up" when they compete with trans athletes? Answer: None. This just another "freedumb" issue dreamed up by Republicans.

Why don't you ask the same questions about women's right to reproductive health care? That's an issue WOMEN actually care about.

Survey shows broad opposition to abortion restrictions among women of reproductive age

Three-quarters of women 18 to 49 think abortion should be legal. That includes nearly half of Republican women.

Scholarships, trophies, the right to change in a dressing room
that doesn't have penises flopping around next to them.

How many at the high school level?

And besides, why are you OK with robbing even 10 girls of deserved college scholarships?

"Senate Democrats block GOP-led bill to ban transgender athletes from women's sports
Republicans are trying to keep the national spotlight on the issue after Trump and some of the party's down-ballot candidates ran on it in the 2024 election.
WASHINGTON — Senate Democrats voted unanimously to block a Republican-led bill Monday evening that would prohibit federally funded schools from allowing transgender athletes from participating in women's sports.

In a party-line vote of 51-45, Democrats filibustered the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act, introduced by Sen. Tommy Tuberville, R-Ala. It fell short of the 60 votes needed to advance as Democrats dismissed it as a distraction and a cynical political move.


Four senators didn’t vote: Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va.; Cynthia Lummis, R-Wyo.; Elissa Slotkin, D-Mich.; and Peter Welch, D-Vt.

The outcome means the legislation — which passed the House in January and mirrors an executive order issued by President Donald Trump — won’t go any further. But the failed vote is likely to become a political talking point for Republicans in upcoming elections after they used the issue of transgender rights as a cudgel in the 2024 campaign."

More proof that Democrats are not going to move to the center. They continue to be a leftist freak show and toxic to the United States.

The dems war on women and girls continues.

She also made a snide remark about Jews. But then again, she’s a Canadian liberal, so par for the course.

There are 10 trans athletes in all of the NCAA. There is absolutely no point to this legislation whatsoever. Across all of the nation's colleges and universities.

In blocking a bill banning trans athletes from participating in women's sports in Utah, the Republican governor of the state said "There are 4 trans athletes in the state of Utah. I think we can deal with that without passing legislation".

The Governor of Utah was right. The legislation is not needed.

of course there is a point, to get those 10 men out of women's sports.

And Democrats are still wondering why they lost

and any one else thinking about it. It isn't that fking difficult, but those canadians, have no fking clue.

 

[jc456]

And Democrats are still wondering why they lost

they have no interest in winning again. Not sure how any of this is for middle class families. More evidence they are bought by special interest and not families.

Riley Gaines is the ONLY female athlete who has come out against trans women in sports. One woman does not make a movement.

No she isn't....she along with dozens others have sued the NCAA More than a dozen female athletes sue NCAA over their transgender participation policy

More than a dozen female athletes sue NCAA over their transgender participation policy​

and the movement isn't just in the United States, it's a global call for action: https://fairplayforwomen.com/wp-con...-girls-by-Fair-Play-For-Women-14-Jan-2024.pdf

“Inclusion has meant invasion, injustice and ultimately exclusion from our own category” Sharron Davies, MBE, Olympic Silver Medallist

Listen To The Voices Of Female Athletes​

Contrary to organizational claims “there are only a few transgender athletes” participating in girls’ and women’s sport, the subjects in this report describe a “multiplier effect” in which “hundreds of males taking part in women’s sport, are actually affecting tens of thousands of women and girls.” These voices explain that its not just about losing out on winning, records, rankings, or opportunities to participate, it’s about not being
considered nor asked and even being coerced into accepting a mixed-sex environment. They speak about a climate of intimidation, fear, silencing, loss of privacy and dignity, and fear for their physical safety.


It’s important for us to listen.

That ant should keep his penis out of the woman's locker room.

She's playing the "reduce the number game by saying what's going on RIGHT NOW"

not the overall headcount over time.

It's about time these trans "women" need to get their asses KICKED.

Republicans are trying to keep the national spotlight on the issue

This is exactly correct. The GOP is desperately trying to deflect from all the fuckups Trump is committing by drawing attention to, what, 100 people they don't like?

Inflation is still up. Yeahbut fags!

Eggs are skyrocketing. Yeahbut fags!

Tariffs are causing a trade war which will increase inflation even more. Yeahbut lookee here! Fags!

DOGE is creating havoc in government services. Yeahbut fags!
