No mention of anger that girls are invading boys spaces and teams.

Name a sport in which girls have an inherent athletic advantage over boys, and we can talk. There aren't any. Here and there, one can find a very athletic girl who plays boys baseball or soccer, usually because her school doesn't have a girls team in that sport. I've seen a few cases in club soccer as well, where the girls team at a certain age level has folded but a couple of the girls want to keep playing. In such a case, it's not unusual for a boys team to make space for them. Some of these girls are reasonably competitive at a rec sports level, but the overlap at highly competitive levels is virtually zero. Teams can make accommodations for the occasional individual case. No girl is going to join a boys team and dominate and, more importantly, no girl is going to enjoy an inherent advantage by virtue of being a girl.

Maybe now the government can fund 4 classes of school sports

Boys
Girls
Girls who think they are boys
Boys who think they are girls

America always covers its social problems with lots of printed money, taxes and massive government debt. Plus, the bureaucracy and teachers’ unions would love it.

I feel bad for the girls, but the other side of the coin is that the majority of women vote for the party that is promoting this.

Girls are lighter and weaker. Never will a girls crew team beat a men’s team

school girls should drop off school teams where these boys are allowed on their team, and should start club and town teams and play nearby teams.

An athletic scholarship to play on a NCAA womans team is worth a lot of money. If a boy athlete says “I am a girl” he gets the scholarship and the girl gets nothing.

In a little-noticed study following the 1991 Tailhook scandal, 100 Navy men and 100 Navy women, all of the same age, were given a battery of strength tests.

Conclusion: the 10 strongest women were only as strong as the 10 weakest men. XY beats XX, bottom line, and the trannie g**ls on the team still have the XY advantage.

Aren't athletes routinely disqualified for the use of hormones (steroids)?

Don't "sex change" regimens include hormone therapy?

If so, wouldn't that automatically disqualify trannie athletes from competition?

A growing number of school administrators...
and their fellow travelers and handlers are high-fiving and licking their chops with delight over how much disruption they are causing to America's culture.

Pathetically, they are doing it with taxpayer money.

Parents better respond promptly and effectively at the school level and the political level. Whether parents want to be or not, they are involved in Civil War II and so far, besides their money, they feel no discomfort because it is their children they are sacrificing.

The only reason women’s sports exist is because they suck at everything, and would never win. What goes around, comes around. How sweet.

The only way to defeat this crapola is to go outside the system. Private clubs are exempt from much of this stupidity.

Overhead can be quite low, and money can be used to provide the girls with scholarships.

A big plus is that it exposes the boy-girl cheat for what it is. Let the boy freak dance around in the winner’s circle for five minutes before any of the girls even cross the finish line, because the quality of the competing girls will drop far below competitive. It will turn the events into a Special Olympics.

And the competitive girls can encourage other girls to compete with no intention of winning, but to make mockery of the event.

Most of the time, a more powerful engine in a boat is a heavier engine than a lighter and less powerful engine. The extra weight in a boat is more than offset by the power that it generates to create thrust. Generally speaking, men are more powerful than women and more than offset their generally higher weight by the force that they generate. Men’s times in all record classes are 20-30 seconds faster than women’s times.

The best women will never be competitive in ANY sport where speed, strength, and power is at a premium. Blame nature, not social constructs.

Girls dominate on the balance beam and uneven bars where certain parts of the male anatomy are not an advantage. Let’s see a tranny win on the balance beam.

In the end it might be a good thing. If it were white males being harmed there would be a collective shrug and nothing would ever get done about it. Since it’s disadvantaging a protected class (women) the absurdity of the whole transgender farce will be called out when 98% of all females are pushed out of women’s sports. When enough women complain something will get done about it.

Bad things happen when governments pretend things to be true that aren’t true. Witch hunts, slavery, holocaust, abortions, pervert “marriage”, girls having to compete against boys in sports...

So how is Women’s Sports going to be supported when the women all droop out of it or decline to enter and when all the Women’s Sports scholarships go to men? Who is going to be the audience whose money pays for it all? the QWERTY community? Not a chance. When you turn over the culture to 2 per cent of the population you get these insanities. When “Women’s” Sports ceases to be a draw the scholarships will end.

Sports scholarship applications will have to eliminate the Sex checkoff box.
