The Supreme Court has just now started oral arguments in the transgender case.
Little v Hecox.
Issue: Whether laws that seek to protect women's and girls' sports by limiting participation to women and girls based on sex violate the equal protection clause of the 14th Amendment.
You can listen to the arguments here:

SCOTUS ping!
Sad that this is even a question.
Broad readings of the 14th’s equal protection clause have not been kind to this country.
[Sad that this is even a question]
It’s an ominous Sign of the Times
“Transgender” is a SATANIC LIE
from the Pits of Hell ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Wow to those who are deceived
by this unGodly madness
“Broad readings of the 14thโs equal protection clause have not been kind to this country.”
I agree. Unfortunately the role of the Democrat district court judges has been to broaden the readings time after time thus ending up with a SCOTUS hearing. There, we have a couple justices that are way too squishy on the issue (ahem—Gorsuch and Roberts).
Little Hecox? I’ll stop right there...
Ping to "progressing america".
Here is a scotusblog article on the legal issues on the case. Yeah, I know that site is left-wing, but they do compile good information on scotus cases.

If it hadn't been written so badly, and if it had not been passed against the will of the people who "ratified" it, it would not now be causing all the problems it has been causing.
Little Hecox???
It's own rulings have inevitably brought its precedents into conflict with Title IX and the 1st Amendment's guarantees of religious practice.
If there is ever a leftist majority on the court, they will hold that their fictional expansion of the 14th Amendment overrides Title IX and the 1st Amendment's guarantees of freedom of religion and free speech: the state will be free to force church groups to hire homosexuals and any complaints will be subject to prosecution as "hate speech." Guaranteed.
Little Hecox???
Yep. A bit on point don’t ya think?
It should be titled Amendment 14 v Title IX.
There can only be one.
EC
Oh great, the Little-Hecox ruling. Seriously? Yagotta name the fake dong case, Little-Hecox?
And itโs sad that that it could go either way. The Boy Scouts is bankrupt and gone, The Catholic Church, the entertainment industry all destroyed by these bastards
Exactly, issue summary judgement that bars trans from girls' sports.
FTR, Fox is carrying it. Requires concentration; they’re really off in the tall weeds. Gorsuch sounds so darn reasonable ...
Kavanaugh seems to think it is a state issue... works for me.
15 years ago, who would have thought that the USSC would be pressed to decide if men can or can not compete in women's sports.
The world is upside down.
