Texas Republicans Pass Bill Banning Trans Youth from School Sports

Texas is poised to enact a new anti-trans law after House Bill 25 passed both legislative chambers. The bill, which now heads to Republican Governor Greg Abbott’s desk, would enact a ban on transgender youth participating in schools sports.

I doubt that’s what the legislation says. There is a lack of information in that article, but I bet it would simply require them to participate in sports according to their birth sex.

They are probably not banned from participating in sports against their natural birth gender.

You are right. The article is a lie. They can participate in sports according to the gender on their original birth certificate.

Whatever the bill authorizes or prohibits, it is sure to get a challenge in court from the “gender fluid” crowd.

XX equals female, XY equals male. Any body mutilations or hormone injections only serve to convert either of the genders into neuters, or if there is no fundamental change. the posers are simply cross-dressers, transvestites.

There is a lack of information in that article

To put more information in the article would endanger the bias. Used to be that an editor would spike such an inaccurate article, or keep pushing it back down for confirmation from sources until the dumbass who wrote it would get the message, but nowadays... all that matters is a clickbait headline.

Court will be so much fun. Read the bill, it’s all about helping females participate in sports. It will be hard to look good (or inclusive) while fighting this.

Misleading headline. They’re not banned from sports. They’re just banned from competing with the opposite gender.

boys who think they are girls should play against other boys who think they are girls. Same for girls who think they are boys.
