Federal Appeals Court Rules Against Women, Affirms Policy of Allowing Transgender Girls to Compete on Female Sports Teams in Connecticut Case
gateway pundit ^ | 12/16/2022 | margaret flavin

The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) filed a lawsuit to bar two transgender athletes — Terry Miller and Andraya Yearwood — from competing in the 2020 spring outdoor track season on a girls team at a Connecticut school.

According to ADF:

Soule v. Connecticut Association of Schools, a lawsuit filed on behalf of four female athletes who were consistently deprived of honors and opportunities to compete at elite levels because the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference adopted a policy that allows males who identify as female to compete in girls’ athletic events.

Starting in 2017, two male athletes began competing in Connecticut girls’ high school track. In just three years, those two males broke 17 girls’ track meet records, deprived girls of more than 85 opportunities to advance to the next level of competition and took 15 women’s state track championship titles. Four of those championship titles were earned by ADF’s client, Chelsea Mitchell. Four times she was the fastest female in a women’s state championship race, and four times she watched that title, honor, and recognition go to a male athlete instead. Over the course of her high school career, Mitchell lost to these males more than 20 times.

The other female athletes represented in this case, Selina Soule, Alanna Smith, and Ashley Nicoletti, all likewise have been denied medals, placements, or advancement opportunities because of the male athletes competing on their team.

So, the court is going to allow boys to continue to compete in girls’ sports. Let’s just call it what it is.

transgender female = male sex

transgender male = female sex

The term “gender” is not applicable to human biology. There is only “sex,” either male or female. There is nothing else except the rare genetic abnormality.

They started this crap when they let boys join the Girl Scouts, was it not?

Someone needs to start a new sport that the ‘ITS’ have no way to join.
Private sports for those who are born with natural gender and can prove it.

IMO, women should just quit organized sports - turn it over to the 'men'. IOW: GO ON STRIKE!

Civil disobedience!

the solution to this issue is simple: ACTUAL females should ALL simply refuse to play ALL sports for a year or two and the freaks can play each other in the mean time ... interest and money will totally dry up and money will be the force that will fix the problem ...

Insanity is now law.

What’s to stop a guy from claiming to be a woman and getting the special privileges that women -owned businesses get?
I see nothing ethically wrong with that.

Also, applying to women’s colleges.

Not for me, but hey, have a go at it!

Speaking of “fixing, Limbaugh noted that the “fix” should be demonstrating that the conversion is complete with a “cutadickofftomy.” Get the moyals(sp) to reach a little higher on the tree of sex? Could be some work here for the El Salvador night riders?
