| Let's see how this plays out. If physicians digitally penetrate girls en mass as a part of routine sports physicals in Ohio, I will admit I was wrong. |

You only need a signed written statement from your child’s doctor attesting to your child’s anatomy. Pediatricians are not going to refuse to provide the signed statement without exhaustively examining a child’s internal organs when the only thing at stake is joining a softball team. Do you not have an iota of common sense?
GTFOOH with your rape/molestation/any random person can demand to see a kid’s genitals nonsense. You’re distracting from the actual issues with this bill. |
That it's bigoted and transphobic and awful? |
And the fact that it’s so prurient and so poorly written that it sounds to many of us like it’s mandated rape? Not too many bills you have to say that about. |

Ohio is the absolute worst.

Yes, to all of the above, plus this bill encourages harassment without consequence. With very, very few exceptions, everyone has a birth certificate that indicates their sex based on the appearance of their external genitalia. We don’t need expensive medical testing or sworn affidavits to assign players to soccer teams. This bill is not about leveling the playing field for biological females. It is a license to harass and marginalize others. |
+1 Everywhere but the gridiron. |
