[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do we honestly think this is an issue? Our NVSL team has had only one trans swimmer (who had no problem swimming with their assigned-at-birth-gender). I have to imagine that meets and practices will go on as normal and I can't see reps demanding for kid's birth certificates. [/quote]

Considering there was an issue last year where there was a protest at a fun meet for under 10 kids when someone claimed they saw a bulge on a 7 year old, I think we will probably see issues pop up. Not a huge amount because there aren't many trans kids in NVSL and most people I don't think care. But yes, I think somewhere this will be an issue.[/quote]

It's not the number of trans kids that will dictate the number of protests.  Unfortunately, it's the number of crazy parents, which we all know any in abundance, that will drive the frequency of this becoming an issue.  And, it's an election year to boot!!  Standby for crazies to come out of the woodwork, all trying to one-up each other to make the next news cycle.[/quote]
