It's CoEd Hockey you dipshit. If they are in fact balancing the competitiveness, then everyone comes to a tryout and they look at your abilities and then create teams. If you are allowed to just get a group together and create a team, then there is nothing stopping 10 former D1 hockey players from forming a team and beating the snot out of another team that is all women...but I doubt the leagues operate this way. This is really a strange thread for you to be spouting your nonsense. |

This thread isn't about kids and women's spaces. It's about adults and it's about women being in what are ostensively men's locker rooms.
Every rink I have been to in the DMV has accommodations (or will make accommodations) for women who want to get dressed separately. That fact that you feel like you have to bring your anti-trans agenda into this thread is all the proof I need that you are, in fact, obesessed. |
| At our rink which has 4 locker rooms I have often seen on the assignment board: Room 1 - Team 1, Room 2 - Team 2, Room 3 - Women. Its similar for the youth leagues where all the girls from both teams are typically assigned one locker room. |
|
It's also not a legitimate competitiveness issue, either. As far as I am aware, there are no real "co-ed" adult hockey leagues in the area like you might find in soccer or softball.
There are mens leagues and there are women's leagues. On very rare occasions, women who play or have played in college will play in the mens league. I have been playing men's league in the area for 25 years and have encountered less than a dozen women. Some dress with the boys and some dress in an auxiliary locker room. |
FWIW, women who played D1 hockey mostly dominate the co-ed leagues. I'm not talking about head-to-head against men who played D1, but if you're talking about your average 40-something man who played some high school hockey, the former D1 woman wins. |
I guarantee if you show up to a game and the opposing side has 2+ women on the team...your initial reaction is probably "oh shit"...because those women aren't just former HS players. |
And you want transgenders changing in front of you or your husband? Think about it. They shouldn’t play sports. I don’t understand why it’s so hard for some people to understand but when they choose to become transgender, they give up their right to change in locker rooms and play sports. Or at least they should. This is what will be talked about in the next election. Democrats obsession with transgenders is the gift that keeps on giving. |
| Nobody except you is talking about transgenders, you freakin' weirdo. |
What about men who want to get dressed separately? Of course they are not at risk, but they deserve privacy, yes? |
They need to grow up. Men are in no danger from other men in the locker room. |
Correct. Which is what I said. But they deserve privacy, yes? |
They can change in one of the bathroom stalls. |
I don't know how it is among grown men, but among boys, there have been bullying issues in locker rooms on almost every team my son has played on. Not specifically directed at him, although in his first year on a new team, he did have a hard time in the locker room. |
That's a yes, then. Thanks! |
So that’s already an option but they don’t have to. So again, do you want transgender women changing in front of boys and men? Think about it. |
