[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a quick reality-check is probably in order here. Despite the current moral panic over trans* kids, the number of kids who 1) identify as trans; and 2) have begun any sort of medicalized gender affirming treatment; and 3) Are AMAB transitioning to female, is miniscule.

OP may be a real person or may be a troll, but if they are a real person, then their child is in an incredibly small minority assuming they've undergone a medical transition of any sort.

We're having a whole culture war freakout about the "end of women's sports" about an issue that impacts at most a handful of kids per state. [/quote]

Why is it ok that a handful of female athletes per state are put at an unfair competitive advantage by having to compete against someone born male? In swim, that means girls are not making finals, not medaling, etc., because they’re having to swim against someone who we normally put in a whole different category because of inherent biological advantages.
