Caitlyn Jenner backs New York Nassau County’s ban on male transgender athletes in women's sports: 'Stop it now while we can'

Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner is backing a New York county's effort to ban transgender athletes from competing against biological women, arguing that doing so will protect competition in female sports.
"You have to compete in the biological sex that you were born. This is critical to protecting the integrity of competition in women's sports," Jenner, a Fox News contributor, said in Mineola, New York, on Monday.
"My fear is that if this woke agenda that's out there… the DEI world that's out there, if this continues, it'll ruin women's sports over the next 10, 20 years. Let's stop it now while we can."
Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman signed an executive order last month denying permits to use facilities if a biological male is on a girls' team playing with other biological females. He joined "Fox & Friends" to discuss how he garnered Jenner's support for the measure and what legal hurdles are on the horizon with Attorney General Letitia James.
"We knew Caitlyn's position on the issue and that she supported my executive order," he told Brian Kilmeade on Tuesday.
"So we reached out to her and asked her if she would come to New York and join with us to show solidarity for the ban. And she was very gracious. She came to Nassau County yesterday. She laid out a very well-reasoned and articulate dissertation based on fact, why biological females should not have to compete against biological males."
"It's unsafe, it's unfair, and we want women to be able to play on a level playing field," he continued.
The order, which is now embattled in state and federal legal woes, said the "action was necessary to maintain fairness for women’s athletic opportunities."

The Nassau County rule states: "any sports, leagues, organizations, teams, programs, or sports entities must expressly designate as one of the following based on the biological sex at birth of the team members/participants when applying for a use and occupancy permit to utilize Nassau County Parks property for the purposes of organizing a sporting event or competition: 1) Males, men or boys or 2) Females, women or girls or 3) Coed or mixed, including males and females."

‘Stop it now while we can’
Who’s this “we?” Are we all “transgender” now?

We may not agree with Caitlyn’s personal life choices, but he’s right about this; and I think he meant that ‘Americans’ have to stop it now.

I’ve never been able to think of Jenner as other than a male transvestite. I doubt he’s ever gone ‘full transition’ or that he’s is or has ever been a homosexualist.
And again, he’s right about this.

OK now. "She" competed (and won) as a male athlete, right?
At least that's the "left" way to frame "her" original claim to fame.
Right? {snicker}

Something obviously happened.
But despite it - and whatever it was - many of his political and social views align with Conservative principles.

We could stop it tomorrow if we wanted to. All that needs to happen is that the girls need to refuse to participate and the parents need to support them and pull them out of leagues which allow chicks-with-d!cks.

You are right but it is a lot to ask. For openers they will lose their scholarships. If they did en masse it would put a quick stop to this BS but l just don’t see it happening.

Too much estrogen in the air, for too long.

Bruce was cross dressing during his second marriage, before Chris Kardashian, but in private. Maybe it's the airing of every aspect of the Kardashian’s personal life that pushed Jenner into exposing his “confusion” to the public.

He's been married three times to women and fathered six natural children. I think it's something more than simply associating with the 'estrogen endowed'.
(On the other hand, extraordinary success and fame can do very weird things to some people.)

Most male transvestites are sexually ‘straight’, and most do indulge in ‘secret’.
