[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Whether that’s the case or not is irrelevant to the comment I was responding to. But what a surprise that bigots can’t address anything on this merits and instead try to find ways of trying to degrade people who think differently.[/quote]

Look lady.  I grew up before Title IX.  I don't think you have any idea of what went into getting this for women.  Why do you think women's sports are separate from men's sports?  Because women are biologically different.  They cannot compete at the same level in most sports.  
Since you seem unaware of how sports work, here's a little update for you:  in high school, many team sports are selective.  Not everyone makes the team--boys or girls.  But, a transgender girl will have a great advantage on a team that requires speed and strength:  soccer, lacrosse, softball, field hockey.  That is just a fact.  And, some girls will want to play at a college level and may lose the opportunity to get scholarships because of trans girls getting the slots.  I saw a young female sprinter interviewed this week.  She has a twin brother who is not a sprinter--but can still outrun her.

This is not a matter of bigotry or bathrooms.  It is a principle of fairness.  And, as stated earlier, women were eliminated from the Olympics for taking testosterone to get a competitive advantage.  Trans women have it naturally.

Try using just a little common sense.  This Equality Act needs to be rewritten.

Title IX was about far more than sports.  If you think access to school athletics was the primary goal of Title IX, your understanding of history is fundamentally misinformed.[/quote]
