Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez claimed that all women will have to face genital examinations if biological men are banned from competing in female sports.
The 'squad' member spoke out at Tuesday night's House Oversight Subcommittee on Health which discussed the topic of gender participation in competitive sports.
AOC, 34, said there were multiple proposals that would marginalize transgender Americans and claimed that questioning athletes' gender would open up women and girls to 'genital examinations'.
'We are talking about opening up all women and girls to genital examinations when they are underage, potentially just because someone can point to someone and say, I don't think you are a girl,' Ocasio Cortez said.
'And we're saying this in an environment of a post-Dobbs America,' the New York Democrat said. 'Where states are criminalizing access to abortion and want nothing more than data on women to figure out when, who's getting a menstrual cycle, who doesn't have one, and we're supposed to believe this is going to make us better and safer?'
'I think not, and, per usual, I don't believe we're sitting here on a panel of men that has actually thought about the biology and privacy consequences of all women, trans or cisgendered,' AOC finished.
Rep. Summer Lee - who is the ranking member of the House Oversight Subcommittee on Health agreed with AOC, saying that women testifying against biological males playing in women's sports is 'transphobic'.
Women's sports advocate and NCAA swimming legend Riley Gaines hit back 'if my testimony makes me transphobic…your opening monologue makes you a misogynist.'
Lee quickly moved to have Gaines remarks withdrawn for 'engaging in personalities' rather than the substance of the debate.
'I move to have the gentlewoman's words taken down' Lee appealed to the chair.
After a brief pause in proceedings Lee withdrew her point...

She makes no sense. Why would this happen?
This assumes that AOC has a mind, and that the mind is a wonan's.
It’s not a brain tumor!
So, if genitals do not make for gender then why cut them off??
What is it with this idiot and her fascination with the idea that women are being physically abused or that is the only thing people think about when it comes to women?!?
Either her upbringing was really EFFED-UP or her college classes are even worse than what we have been thinking!
She is STUCK on this topic!
I like this idea for one simple reason...the cost of grade school has EXPLODED because we have to maintain the two, relatively equal money pools for each sex.
Put these all together and then the women will ride the bench in every single sport, BUT they will be allowed to play alongside the guys!
The only girls who will get playing time are those who are TRULY gifted and can outplay the boys...but they will be “on the team” and “in sports”.
She is a true moron.
Buccal smear (oral swab) for presence of the Barr body (an inactive X chromosome that is seen in females only) is a long-established test for genetic female (XX) status.
Funny, we didn’t need to do this before now
I wonder what “Sandy” is worried about. Hmmmmm.
However, AOC has no outrage for teen and preteen girls having to share locker rooms and showers with biological males. I wonder if her gym allows biological males to share a locker room with her.
With the new DNA tests, I’m pretty sure they’ll make “genital examinations” optional. LOL.
Proverbs 17:28.
AOC is just plain dumb.
LOL
What she really said was, "I can hardly wait to begin genital examinations on underage women and girls!"
AOC is dumber than the idiots that voted for her maybe they pity her
Hos can we trust the “examiners” unless the exam is public?
God forbid they do a simple blood test like the Olympics does
Noooooo. I like Dave and Busyers. She would ruin it
Has she never played organized sports?
I got my balls checked every year in the form of a ‘sports physical’ from Little League through high school.
