This has nothing to do with Conservatives or any other political persuasion (ie how should we spend tax money and should we even tax people) -- this is the Cult of Woke and Denial of Reality. They need to stop with the politics. This is about Reality vs Insanity.

"anti-trans" --- there is no such thing as trans. Let's start there.

If BruceLyn Jenner had come out as a Burmese woman, people would have taken offense at the Burmese part, so why do we allow him to claim womanhood? After all, Jenner is no more a woman than he is Burmese.

Calling the hypocrisy of the Cult of Woke out will wake normal people up.

Until the broken bones start piling up on HS fields and courts all over the country, people will think it is NBD b/c "one kid can't have that big of an impact"...and when it is THEIR kid whose team loses, when it is THEIR daughter who gets knocked into next week by some "girl" who outweighs her by 50 pounds(and not b/c of obesity), has a volleyball spiked into her face by someone hitting harder than anyone else in the league, gets left in the dust at a track meet, can't hit the other team's new pitcher who can whip softballs in at 80mph, etc etc, THEN it will be seen for how it really works.

I think a lot of people in the US are already thinking about it. Sports really brings the absurdity of "trans girls" (and doesn't that sound dainty?) home.

Waffle and piffle. Blather about a spectrum. And a snow job about 'politics '. There is nothing liberal or conservative about biology.
