100% agree

Anonymous wrote:NVYLL actually does have a policy, which was put in place due to that very incident. The policy is included in the long document of policies and procedures available on the NVYLL web page. I did not witness the incident, and I have no idea who was the "good guy" or the "bad guy" in the confrontation. Of course it is fashionable to assume that the trans person and their family were the victims, and the person who asked the question is the neanderthal. And, it is also fashionable to assume that Dulles South is always the bad guy. (full disclosure, I have had my share of run ins with DS, and not a fan of the program). But whatever happened that day, you will be glad to know that NVYLL does have a policy, which tries to walk the tightrope between having a fair playing field, but not offending the trans community.

But seriously, I don't think that debating whether one sport is more homophobic than another is an intelligent or worthwhile discussion. It is nothing more than trolling and stirring the pot, just like the OP on this thread appears to have intended.

I have my own opinions about the nine year old biological boy playing soccer with girls, which I will not express here. There is a thread entitled LGTB that would be perfect for these issues, so anybody who wants to have a genuine debate should go over to that thread and do so.

Unless the OPs original question is really "is lacrosse as a sport more homophobic than other sports" and I don't know but I kind of feel like that was in part the OPs question.

We played against the team she was on last week, girls are obviously older, with a bigger field and she was on this team again. Getting a lot of noticeably encouraging cheers, Went by the same name as a popular flower with a lot of L's in it.

I'm not there yet on my understanding of parents that segregate a child that early to be honest (I don't even know what the f you are talking about a transgril is playing with girls there is no segregation). But it's not up to me, nor do they need to provide me an explanation. I just haven't seen 7/8 year olds mistreat a kid because she believes she is a girl trapped in a boy's body (you probably could just say trans).

There are so many things wrong with your post and sadly I think you were trying to be nice.

Please educate me.

fixed it for you

missed one

I have a son who is gay who is afraid to tell his teammates and it has been hurting me.

Why does he even want to tell his teammates? They don't want to know about it. Sounds like this is really all about him and his urge to say "look at me I'm special, don't you think I'm great?"

What kind of crazy thought is that? Clearly that is where the problem lies that someone would even think its motivated by someone who wants to be seen as special. My son is fearful that his teammates will find out and he doesn't want to be ostracized when he has heard some homophobic comments in the past. I would say whoever your kid is I'm glad he or she is being raised with your f*&ked up moral compass...a44hat.
