[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can’t wait for a 17 year old who was born female but has been taking hormones to aid in transition to male to be forced to swim with the girls. [all this “we must protect girls!”…maybe think it through all the way and remember what youth sports are supposed to be about…][/quote]
I don’t know if this applies to rec league like NVSL, but if you are a female transitioning to be male and taking hormones to aid in that transition you are not going to be eligible to compete against females anymore either. That is essentially considered doping. This really isn’t that deep. To compete against females you have to be a biological female and can’t be doping, whether it’s  because you’re transitioning to be male or just trying to get a competitive edge. And yes, female athletes deserve that protection for their competitive space. [/quote]

Super concerned about doping in…a summer swim league.

Legitimately, do people actually care this much about NVSL?  I get caring this hard about state high school championships but…this?   [/quote]
