US women's soccer hero Megan Rapinoe has come out strongly in favor of including transgender women in women's sport, labelling the arguments against 'cruel and disgusting'.
The veteran soccer star, who co-captained the United States Women's National Team in 2019 as they won a second successive World Cup, was dismissive of the notion that trans women are dominating women's sports and thus need regulating.
Instead, she argued that excluding them from competing at lower levels is cruel, as people value their 'kid's high school volleyball team' ahead of the lives and wellbeing of transgender people.
Her comments come in the wake of the furore surrounding professional swimming body FINA's (Fédération Internationale de Natation) new policy that bans transgender women from competing in swimming races.
The decision came in response to transgender UPenn swimmer Lia Thomas' record-breaking victories at college swim meets, which sparked claims the trans athlete had an extreme advantage as a result of going through male puberty.
'Show me the evidence that trans women are taking everyone's scholarships, are dominating in every sport, are winning every title,' the Rapinoe said. 'I'm sorry, it's just not happening.'
'I'm 100 per cent supportive of trans inclusion,' she told TIME. 'People do not know very much about it. We're missing almost everything

“I’m 100 per cent supportive of trans inclusion,’ she told TIME. ‘People do not know very much about it. We’re missing almost everything”
I know my my Bible doesn’t mention it.....what it DOES warn about is the dangers of homosexuality.....and that’s all I need to know.
I’m not missing squat.
So, if an entire Premiere League team decided they were “trans” next week, this chick would be OK with playing against them.
That might be fun to watch.
Well, woop-di-do. Sounds like Megan was a day late in the brain issue appointment.
Uh, has anyone checked her DNA?
Has-been pervert perspective.
And remember kids, she’s a spokesman for Subway.
Vote with your wallet
I really do think her 15 minutes are pretty close to up. She seems really unpleasant & looks very rough.
Legend?

Better yet- if the entire “womens” team that played the American woman’s team from the US in a world cup semi-final was made up of all trans men, I’m sure this hag would have an issue.
This bitty, like so many pinkos, feel it is their mission to break down society in any way possible. She and they know this is insanity, but if it serves to destroy western society, capitalism, tradition; then they are all for it.
Who cares what a reprobate Megan Rapinoe says.
Every thinking individual knows, the irrational belief that one is a type of being that they clearly are not is a fairly serious mental disorder and one that is accompanied by a few other undesirable, abnormal, socially unacceptable and potentially life endangering traits.
These persons need professional help and guidance to deal with their disorder and to lead a safe and healthy life and to reduce their risk to the public as much as possible. They do not need encouragement in their disorder, rather they require a correction of it.
She is just mentally ill. And a douchebag. I would fully expect her to say that.
In addition to hating men, she apparently hates women too.
They don’t exactly think this stuff through do they?
Maybe what is needed is to actually encourage this. Once you have “women’s” teams that are largely men it’ll expose the absurdity of it all. Imagine an entire team of trans-women vs. real women. The advantage would be 11X.
Gawd, I hate this whole “trans people are endangered’ bullcrap. If they’re worried about actually being endangered how about tossing some outrage Fauci’s way?
Why, just the other day, I was axin myself what the Rappin Ho had to say about all this vegetable soup.
When Sue Bird was at UConn, Coach Auriemma used college men at practice. She cried because she couldn’t beat them. True story!
Shes isnt against banning them...
Just not at the lower levels.
Says the cow that couldn’t beat a bunch of 9th grade boys.
Weirdos have weird opinions.
Romans 1 covers it all again.
Until a boy in middle school beats her out of a spot on US Soccer Team.
