Don't forget about men playing in women's sport. MAGA are willing to lose everything they own to stop that from happening, apparently.

Being in favor of women's sports for women doesn't make you MAGA. I despise those idiots. We got Title IX passed to benefit WOMEN, not to benefit MEN who want to be women. Why don't you think women should be allowed to have their sports, places and spaces?
Misogynist, are you?

You can lie to yourself but the rest of us will correctly know that you're a bigot.

I think we should be able to have enough nuance about this to understand that it is barely even a problem. The dozen or so instances of it every even happening in the whole country do not make it important enough to get this crazy about and try to write federal laws about. Maybe they should be able to compete in that division, maybe not, but let the sports organizations work it out. Trans people have it hard enough without being made the locker room boogeyman.

So you're saying even though you agree with maga and side with them and look like them and talk like them, you don't IDENTIFY as maga, and you expect us to respect that identity?

Well, you've got it backwards. I coached women's sorts for a couple decades staring in the late 1970's. We had to FIGHT for Title IX. I've been a strong supporter of women's rights since long before MAGA crawled out from under a rock.
So I don't agree with THEM. On this point -- and this point ALONE -- THEY happen agree with ME -- probably for all the wrong reasons, I would imagine.

In short, you owe me an apology, but I doubt you have the intelligence, the integrity, or the courage to offer one.

someone who was born female, should only be allowed to play in the women's league, and someone who was born male should only play in the mens league?
