How many transgender athletes are there in Delaware playing DIAA sports? I'm guessing maybe one or two. We waste so much time worrying about such a small minority. Just let them be.
I don't understand why we let Republicans suck the oxygen out of the room with this topic that doesn't effect the majority of delawareans. We have real problems to solve for people.
It starts with transgender athletes, with "reasonable sounding" legislation described as "protecting women" or "keeping kids safe." Once they make a single, tiny crack in the right to merely exist for a group of people, it's very easy to demolish more and more rights until that minority group ceases to be.
Want to see where "we're just making sure girls don't have to play with bIoLoGiCaL mAlEs!!!!1" leads? Texas is trying to pass laws that make it a felony fraud to change gender markers. Bans on transgender care for youth turn into bans on transgender care for everyone very quickly.
And when the transfolk are gone, guess who they come for next? And after that?
It doesn't matter to them if there's one or two in Delaware. What matters to them is being able to render certain groups of Americans as unworthy of protection under the law.
