[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel so horribly for the family of the swimmer at the center of this ridiculous fiasco.  Have you ever even considered putting yourself in their shoes?

They have a child who is likely struggling with their identity but also wants to swim.  I bet they just want the best for their kid and to help their child grow into a confident happy human who spends their time participating in activities that make them happy and grow their confidence at a time when they may be doubting an awful lot about themselves.

And then comes along a self-righteous, bigoted garbage human who feels that it is his right to publicly tear it all down.

You sir, are the worst kind of a$$hole there is.[/quote]

Then they should have taken that up with the powers that be to make sure it was ok to bend the rules in a sex segregated event where times mattered. It’s not a free for all [b]based on the whims of a kid to decide who they are on a given day.[/b][/quote]

I'm so sick and tired of this bigoted type of garbage.  Most families of transgender children go through the wringer with their kids between the ages where they are old enough to know that something doesn't feel right but too young to be able to grasp what is going on with themselves.  It is very often a years-long exhausting process to help their child navigate their situation before they ever come out publicly. Reducing it to a "whim" to decide who they are on a given day is highly offensive to those transgender individuals who most likely have struggled with their identity for as long as they can remember.

Get out of there with that.[/quote]

The world doesn’t revolved around you and yours. Every kid might have their challenges and issues to overcome.[/quote]

Such a weird response when clearly this guy was the one trying to make the world revolve around him[/quote]

This guy and his reactions aside, we’re just not going to end women's and girl’s sports for a few kids who want to buck the rules. Sorry, it’s just not going to happen and the sooner we resolve this debate the better so we can all just move on.[/quote]
