I thought males were not supposed to have a say on girls activities?

Let us hope and pray that the Senate will have some common sense and that this turkey will fail.

Wanna put a stop to this nonsense? 2 ways:
1. Vote out every Democrat.
Failing that...

2. Next Olympic trials: every male failing to make the US team in their respective sports should immediately ‘identify’ as females and boot out all of the true women.

I would have been an all American on my WOMEN’S college basketball and Volleyball teams. Shower time would have been a bonus.

How soon before underachieving male athletes start pretending to be transgender just to win the women’s events?

Well, finally the DEMS are on the same page as the NAZIS who, in 1936, allowed Henrich Ratjen to compete as a woman, Dora.

Wonder what other things the DEMS and Nazis have in common.

The real outrage in this bill is quietly tucked away in the center where nobody is talking about it:

Pay attention to any LGBT legislation with the term "conversion therapy" included. This will be used against parents, mark my words, when they try to reason with their gender and sexual identity-confused children. They're already pulling this crap in Canada where parents are finding themselves in violation of the law.

Conservatives had better be paying attention here. “Conversion therapy” isn’t about therapy in any traditional sense of the word. It is a total usurpation of parental rights. Little Johnny comes home from school and says he wants to be a girl, his parents will be breaking the law if they tell him no.

To: Steve1999; All
Thank you for referencing that article Steve1999. Please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Patriots are reminded that lawless Democrats don’t have the express constitutional authority make laws like the Equality Act and likewise unconstitutional Obamacare.

”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.

Democrats are trying to exploit low-information voters by trying to make laws that voters probably don’t understand that the feds have no express constitutional power to make.

Remember in November 2020!

MAGA!

As a side note to this thread, Speaker Pelosi explains how the corrupt media supports the corrupt Democrats.

I really think its time for outright revolt against pretty much all power structures that exist.

Girls - stay out of boys sports and lockerrooms
Boys - stay out of girls sports and lockerrooms

Boys, kick the girls out the Boy Scouts and take it back, they already have the Girl Scouts. Not our problem if they’ve screwed up their group, let the women fix their group then.
