“...teams that align with their gender identity”
Adopting this nonsense language will lead to another loss.
No one has a “gender identity.” One is either male or female, and these are the 2 sexes.
Gender is masculine/feminine. People have a sex - male or female. Things have a gender.
I say use a scientific identification. XX or XY. Period
You just reminded me of something I learned many years ago in Jr Hi first, then in hi school and college later.
In Jr Hi it was as I studied Einstein's "Theory of Relativity". I think it was while I was attending HS in Fremont, CA that I first heard relativity and relative used being applied to viewpoints.
What's that got to do with gender? In language class, Spanish in the 1st case, later in German, gender was a language form used to identify the sex you were talking about, sometimes as a thing, sometimes a person. Since those classes were sooooo looooong ago, someone other than me will have to provide examples.
So there you have 2 concepts that were transferred from their original meaning to something confusing to suit the needs of socialists. Causing so much confusion in the process.
