Rep. Joe Kennedy decried sports leagues for only women and girls and said sports competitions must be for all “human beings.”
Kennedy, who chairs the Democrats’ transgender equality task force, dismissed women’s sports when Breitbart asked him during a brief interview on Capitol Hill what he would say to women and girls who lose sports competitions to “transgender” men and boys who say they are females.
“Human beings are human beings, man, that’s exactly what I’d say,” he said April 9, adding: “Human beings are 100 percent entitled to compete with whatever sport they want to compete with. Human beings are humans beings … That’s your problem.

LGBT activists and feminists have been allied progressive groups since the 60s. Their shared goal is to tear down gender barriers and bring about the belief system that gender is a social construct.
So you are not going to be able to drive a wedge between feminists and LGBT groups. It won’t happen. They are allies.
There are a few feminists that have cried foul to this stuff, but they are a tiny minority and are outcasted by the mainstream feminists.
‘Even with Title IX, women’s sports are still highly underfunded and doesn’t have the respect and attention that men’s sports have.’
so on to Title X, which will mandate paid attendance to female sport events...
I’ve got a 33 year old daughter, intelligent, professional, hard working, successful...but the exact same thing you describe. No amount of rational argument or empirical evidence can break through. It’s really bizarre.
‘I would like to think my two are outliers.’
they are not...just yesterday I saw two thirty something women in the new release section of the library, talking in eager tones about a Pete Buttigieg book of some sort...and I live in a very red county in PA...
The left hijacks all causes and turns them into weapons of their power burning down the original intent. Women and blacks are now in the back of the bus to perverts who now have “civil rights”. The women and blacks will never complain though because they are socially re-engineered.
There is a marriage gap.... and it’s a major part of how women think politically.
Most young, single women are quite liberal until they get married. Then it’s like a light bulb goes off and only then do they start to drift away from the left.
In 2016, Hillary won with unmarried women by 31 points!! Meanwhile married women only went for Hillary by 3 points.
So something extreme happens once a woman gets married. And many have theorized that women simply do not value family values until they get married. So the Republicans do not offer young, unmarried women an attractive platform. Once they get married, their priorities shift. And they start to consider conservatives.
The fact that Americans are moving away from valuing marriage and family values, and the youth is not marrying as much anymore is one reason the younger generations are shifting left overall.
Good insights, David. What’s the cause and effect?
Is extreme liberalism killing marriage?
Or is dying marriage propelling liberalism?
Ask Martina Navitrilova
Both of mine are married with children and voted straight democrat ticket. One actually quizzed me on how I could vote against Hillary. I told her that I knew who Hillary would appoint to the USSC and that was all I needed. She just looked at me with a puzzled expression.
This one makes the point much better. I enjoy the light disappearing from their eyes when they realize that everything they have ever done a guy was able to do better.

As a millennial, my experience is that most people of my generation are holding on to the leftist politics and extreme narcissism. The women are insufferable and the men are weak.
This is a good example of what the Left’s ideology always turns out to provide in real world terms.
They spout support of women non-stop. At the end of the day though, they will make it so women will have no venue to compete competitively.
Remember that little kid that always gets picked last. Women will never be allowed to grow out of that stage, as men dominate both the men’s and women’s events.
If they do away with separate sex events, so much the more pointed the reality of this will be.
Women, wake the heck up. Are you going to sit still for this. So far,... crickets! Imagine that, the women’s movement will have been destroyed too.
In a way, we are moving in the same direction with Islam vs Christianity.
Christian public displays are now against the law in some places. On public lands for instance. Even if private persons put up those displays, the other side states it’s a state sponsored display. No. It’s just a public display placed there by the public. There’s no reason another display couldn’t be put up as well, just a decent separation out of respect.
Bibles are out of bounds for schools now. Inside those same school Islam is taught and role playing takes place.
Christians are too silent about this, and women are too silent about what is taking place against them.
These things need to stop.
This is so good it bears repeating. My little girl is getting surprisingly good at her sport, and at this little age she plays with boys. But when they hit puberty, she deserves a chance to only compete with her gender! There are many girls, and only a very few transgenders. Fairness is a thing!
I have decided to take a Zen approach & just say I despise all of these nuts. Just go away. Forever. For real. Please.
Well, no, that's not quite true. I mean, if you were a straight male and you had a gay male boss who was trying to pressure you into.... something... you'd definitely be able to call that sexual harassment. It really doesn't have to do with gender.
Men are stronger than women, but women are more flexible and traditionally sports like gymnastics and figure skating made a bigger deal out of those differences. I don’t think a female gymnast 30 years ago would have been at all surprised that a man could pull off the harder tricks with ease, but today’s world has women thinking that the two sexes really are the same.
Well then Joe is a dumbass!
