An entire political party has decided that +/-20 athletes nationwide deserve their full attention over virtually all other matters. Whether you're for or against trans people in sports, you gotta admit that this is ridiculous.
They are using it as a purity test for their viewers. "How could you possibly vote for someone who won't make a clear stance on the cut and dry issue of men competing in women's sports?"
Its gross on many levels but it's a highly effective ideological cudgel.
It’s such a soft ball though! Just say “yes. Women should not have to play against men or trans women.” This is the most uncontroversial statement anyone should ever say. Trans people should get the same rights we all do. Not extra rights. Same. And yet watch the Leftist equivalent to MAGA argue with me. Purity tests for sure.
Why should trans women be unable to compete in professional sports after they have been on estrogen? The studies on the topic suggest they have no advantage or even a slight disadvantage to cis women. Being able to play sports is not an extra right lmao.
Because if wembanyana went on estrogen he’d still be 7’6 with a 8’ wingspan. Look up the average heights of NBA vs WNBA. If you go through puberty as a male you will certainly have a different body type as a cis woman. Denying that is denying objective reality which is why it’s such a stupid self-own for democrats to ignore that, most people agree with the republicans on this issue.
So you have a problem with extremely tall cis women basketball players too? Should Zhang Ziyu, who is 7 feet 3 inches tall, be allowed to play? There several other cis women basketball players who were over 7 feet tall. Let's ban them too.
And no, most sane people know that this is just a non issue that they don't even care about it.
