“I think he’s fundamentally missing the point that these aren’t boys dressing up as girls,” Jemsby barked in an interview conducted in her office, according to the school newspaper. “These are young people who believe they are trapped in the wrong body.”

Yes, these young people young people BELIEVE they are trapped in the wrong body. But what they believe is not true. This is called a delusion. Re-enforcing their delusion is not helping them.

And in catering to these self-deluded youths you are harming other youths. Hornickel is correct when he says that “that letting biological boys compete with girls “undermines” Title IX protections – which are designed to provide women with more opportunities … not less”

Young women, real women, will be denied athletic scholarships and other opportunities because biological males pretending to be women will have taken their spots on athletic teams.

This is a lengthy article but it covers all the bases in this debate. Read the whole thing.

Jemsby is a moron - or worse.

I suspect the correct answer is “worse”.

That may be true, but physical sports are concerned with the abilities of the body you occupy, whether you like it there or feel trapped in it.

"These are young people who believe they are trapped in the wrong body."

I think I'm trapped in the wrong body, too. Where are all my accolades as a three-time Olympic gold medal sprinter?

These people are f#%&ing nuts. The sooner you get the hell away from them in every way possible, the better off you will be.

Then they’re mentally ill and deserve treatment.

For all those who loved “Soap”, Burt believed he could become invisible.

And he was a lot more believable than the obviously mentally troubled trans crowd.

Yup, that’s “mentally troubled”.

Period.

Don’t know that I’d cite Title IX, although I agree there is irony there. Fact is, Title IX does provide women with more opportunities at the expense of decreasing opportunities for men. Remember wrestling, men’s gymnastics, men’s crew, men’s soccer? All pretty much gone on colleges because of Title IX requirements. And there was talk that 50% for women was not enough, but that the % should reflect enrollment.

When it comes to physical ability it is not about the body one thinks they occupy. Suppose the “transgender female” (male thinks he is a female) ups and disappears and years later the bones are discovered. A forensic investigator is asked to determine the sex of the person to whom the bones belonged. The investigator’s decision will be MALE—every time. Every fiber in a transgender female’s body is male and nothing nor anyone can change that science because God made it that way.

The Christian school made the right decision. How can this insanity be halted. The parents of the female athletes will have to refuse to let their daughters compete in any events that allow a male to pretend to be a female.

Good, but I want more men playing on women’s teams to shove this crap right in the faces of the left.

Call it what it is.

Grooming boys for castration.

At any earlier time it would have been considered a heinous crime regardless of political party.
