Joe Biden’s First Day Began the End of Girls’ Sports
The Wall Street Journal ^ | Jan. 22, 2021

Posted on 01/23/2021 7:35:01 PM PST by Helicondelta

An executive order rigs competition by requiring that biological boys be allowed to compete against girls.

Amid Inauguration Day talk of shattered glass ceilings, on Wednesday President Biden delivered a body blow to the rights of women and girls: the Executive Order on Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation. On day one, Mr. Biden placed all girls’ sports and women’s safe spaces in the crosshairs of the administrative state.

No pussy-hat marches in D.C. No statements made from NOW or Feminist Majority.

Effing hypocrites, all of them.

Give it time, folks.

He’s going to wind up offending just about every special interest.

If men and women must compete together then why is there a need for men’s sports and women’s sports? We can just have sports which will be dominated by the biggest and strongest.

There are TERF’s like Germaine Greer, that Harry Potter woman, Camille Paglia, etc. but they are being cancelled by the Third and Fourth Wave Feminazis.

First they rig an election, then they rig women’s sports.

What will eventually happen is that they will divide sports into divisions not by sex or weight (like in boxing) but by testosterone level.

That will be very scientific, very boring, and very sad.

Redefining sexes, redefining legal voters, redefining when human life begins. Redefining the Constitution.

Playing with words. Redefining “the new normal.”

The courts are supposed to “interpret the law.” But we have no standing in the courts. The courts are not for us.

Oh, I forgot “redefining terrorism,” and “redefining patriotism.” Redefining riots.

This is an issue where social conservatives and militant feminists should have common ground. But I guess that modern Feminists have sold out to the Trans-agenda.

Got thrown in FB jail a few hours ago, for the 11th time in a year because I said this about Biden’s love of trannys. “What has been seen cannot be unseen! WE NEED EYE BLEACH!

BAM! In jail.

I see THIS is about to begin...

All the leftist females won’t say a peep about this. So long as unborn babies can be legally killed, they’re fine with this.

Well now. This gives me an indication that Joe doesn’t want females to win. Which also gives me an indication that Joe dislikes females. And that spells out that Joe might be a swish....

I really don’t have a problem with this. I’d like one of those misfits on the U.S. women’s national soccer team, for example, to explain why women should have a separate team if they want equality with men in their compensation.

In our current legal system, I see no difference between gender-separated sports teams and race-segregated buses and bathrooms.

I’d like to see some guys playing women’s softball at Bama. And some doing floor routines in women’s gymnastics. Just because one of the female athletic directors tweeted on Election Day how important the election would be for women and women’s rights.

No, they sold out to the Democrat Party.

The Feminist march in lock step to the Democrat drum beat.

Just as the MSM follow the marching orders of the Democrats so do the Feminist, the Gays and the Transgenders.

They all have the same goal. Power. Once they have and hold power the Party Leadership will divide the spoils.

What Biden is doing now is giving the faithful a taste of things to come.

Ah, there you go. The key part of your response is "current legal system." I am appalled that people want to have separate women's leagues and then want to pretend that putting women into infantry and special ops direct action units is not problematic.

I have long believed what you believed--that Feminism is really about power and not equality. What bothers me is how this trans-mania actually dis-empowers women.

When did presidents get the power to dictate to citizen groups how they must conduct themselves? Nobody remembers how to say “GO TA’ HELL!!!
