8th Place: A High School Girl’s Life After Transgender Students Joined Her Sport

A growing number of school administrators want to silence women and girls who dare speak out about the ways transgender policies are harming them—but these brave young women refuse to be bullied or made to believe their concerns are hateful.

They don’t hate anyone. These girls were among the best high school athletes in their region —excited to earn scholarships and opportunities by working hard to perfect their talents on the track. All of that changed suddenly when they were forced to compete against transgender athletes.

Learn how the Equality Act—legislation currently moving through Congress—would take these misguided rules nationwide

I cannot boycott Target. I went in the Target here once when it was new a long time ago and have not been back and have had no inclination to go in there since.

Equality Act - another piece of time and money wasting crap legislation from the Democrats. IF, and that’s, fortunately, a BIG IF, this trash somehow makes it through the Senate, it will be vetoed by President Trump.

Thank the Good Lord above there are still some adults in the legislative process.

Transgenders and their ilk call that “separate but equal.”

Oy! A fall onto the balance beam. Maybe that would take care of the extra equipment.

LIBS want everything normal to be abnormal. That is because ALL LIBS are lunatics.

Most of these “transgenders” are Tj for convenience and so that they can win at something, bogus as it may be. There not being any opprobrium or disapproval permitted for queer males or their imitators, it proliferates. The Feminists are, in fact, getting what they desire and that is not female empowerment but rather cultural and civilizational disintegration. They aim at accomplishing Utopia for All and total rule for the anointed.

Then you've not coached girls who have had to compete against boys, then. You've not listened to how they see how imbalanced it is and are told to sit down and shut up (using more colorful language much of the time) and that what they think, Just doesn't count. You've also not listened to those who are forced to share those spaces and how icky, creepy, and downright upsetting it is.

Nothing like forcing a generation of girls who don't support this travesty into non-existence because they are forced into silence (since school isn't a bastion of freedom of speech but groupthink) and being upstaged by a swinging third leg who thinks they are a girl. Yet if the same girl is forced to share a toilet with a guy claiming to be a woman, like at Target, those here cheering would be up in arms over it.

The hypocrisy here bugs me greatly.

So you know what? When you guys do want to actually listen (including to the girls who are conservative leaning and pro-life) and take what they say of value - or how they are forced into silence into this mockery, then I might listen.

'Til then it's just more chest beating and blather from those who don't give a d* for anyone except themselves.

I was going to join the girls swim team so I can break the record in the butterfly, but I didn't look good in a bikini, so I didn't. 😀

Anyone remember Title 9 which made it possible for women to enter sports?

Yeah....fun times, fun times.

This will kill it by both biology and agitprop.
How many women will simply quit out of disgust.

If it were white males being harmed there would be a collective shrug and nothing would ever get done about it.

That's because males including white males wouldn't do anything about it. Just the opposite, many would either be promoting those policies or looking the other way when males other than themselves get screwed.

I think you are wrong. I think normal women are quite concerned about men’s personal privacy, and the dampening effect women competing as men have on men’s sports. (I read recently about a young man who chose to forfeit a wrestling match because was too much of a gentleman to fight a girl.) I don’t know why, when people comment on the injustice that young women athletes are experiencing, that people like you have such a chip on your shoulder and make it about men, or assert that women do not care about men’s rights. That is just not true. Why can’t we address one injustice at a time? Why must it always be about men, always about men? Why can’t we focus on an injustice to women, discuss it, decide what to do about it, rather than deflect and bring up some other issue? Or at least put it in the context of dealing with the injustices done to both, rather than point a whiney accusing finger stating *%#! you, it is all about, and only about, me!

The people who are doing the deal harm are the parent (Yes the parents!) & school administrators who are continuing to feed these delusions rather then see that these children get help! Given they extraordinarily high suicide rates of these deluded children there is a high probability that they are sending these children to an early grave. It really is child abuse! If there is truly a children’s advocacy group that actually advocates for the betterment of children rather then pretends to that advocacy group should suing parents, school administrators, anyone who keeps this dangerous swindle going!

I would separate two issues. The privacy and sexual modesty issues are one thing. The girls shouldn't be in boys' locker rooms and showers, etc. The game on the field, however, is a different matter. If a girl can play competitively on the boys' team, and should she win a spot on the roster through a straight tryout, fine. Boys and girls play together in many rec sports when they are young. They start to separate athletically by age 10 or so, and when puberty hits, the gap becomes a chasm. Very, very few girls can hang in with the boys through middle and high school, even at lower competitive levels, and at elite levels, there are virtually none. That said, if a girl had the quickness and fielding skills to play shortstop on the boys' team, fine. Let her play.

Girls and women's sports were established because the number of girls/women able to play at competitive levels with the boys/men is so small. If girls and women in any significant numbers are to have the opportunity to play, they need their own leagues. But if an occasional exceptional case comes along, there is no harm in letting her play. Men have inherent athletic advantages over women. A woman who is good enough to overcome that should be applauded. Let the men's games be unrestricted. (Well, maybe no Klingons.) There will not be an invasion of the women because the women aren't competitive.

This act will also make it illegal to try to get the kid the help they REALLY need in figuring out their gender dysphoria. (There are a whole bunch of underlying common factors - anxiety, socially awkward, autism, ocd, social contagion, etc.) Nope - all it will take is the person saying they believe they are the opposite sex, and they “are”. That is already the case in many states. A kid can go see a doctor the first time, say they really feel like a boy, and get testosterone on the first visit!

In this “equality act” - it isn’t just that one can declare that they are the opposite sex. They can declare that they are a different race, nationality, religion, etc. and they MUST be treated as such. It is crazy!

Parent might opt to castrate the Administrators that are pushing their transgender agenda on the kids, only to help them identify better as transgender of course.
