How many transgender athletes play women's sports?

My lame tablet won't copy right now, so I can't post clip of article. Article starts with "Transgender people are at the center of the GOP's crosshairs". Article estimates about 100 transgender athletes nationwide. "Of the estimated 332 million citizens living in the United States, 1.3 million adults and 300,000 youths ages 13-17 identity as transgender, equaling half a percent and 1.4% of the population respectively, according to report published by Williams Institute, a think tank of UCLA's law school in 2022." Percent of kids 13-17 is 3 times number of adult transgenders?

BS from Newsweak and UCLA law school. We now know law schools are filled with progressive libiots, who want to eliminate freedom of speech.

Athletes should be more worried about the shot.

Oops! Number of transgender kids = 0.23% of transgender adults.

Dunno but there’s virtually none that are “trans men”
I’ll believe this stuff when one makes the Dallas Cowboys as an defensive end.

The bigger question is, how can such a minority wield the political power they do?

How is it a murderer in NYC is on parole and a teacher who "misgenders' a student gets 20 years?

Because herds of violent extremist college students have been mobilized to support them.

Do they count gay athletes as being transgendered athletes?

Williams Institute is a hive of trannies, gays, and other pervs. In 2020, they claimed there were 1.4 transgender ppl in America. Why has it increased so dramatically in 2-3 yrs? Obviously you have to include the hundreds of thousands of emotionally/mentally disturbed teens who have emerged after 2 yrs of misguided mandatory lockdowns in order to get to that inflated number.

Wrong question. The question should be, how many elite female athletes at the tops of their respective sports are being denied trophies, medals, and scholarship opportunities because they’re being pushed off podiums by men who have decided to claim they are women?

Does HR734 only apply to trans “men”? HR734 is the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act.

I did not read all of that crap, but I saw enough to understand the writer misses the point, probably intentionally.

It is not how many trans athletes compete...it is how many college girls and other women athletes are upset by men in their locker rooms and showers, and how many hard training women are cheated of their chances to win recognition in their chosen sport.

Any man who would compete in a woman’s sport is not a sportsman. He should be held in contempt by all contestants and shunned by the sports reporters.

just a matter of time until mediocre men athletes start flooding into professional women’s sports taking all the paying jobs.
