based on their assigned sex at birth

They don't assign you a sex at birth. They record your sex at birth.

The queer lobby’s need to wipe out the concept of woman is rooted in a longstanding battle between the Woman with the snake under her heel and that snake.

It only seems "anti-trans" because the Left is trying to redefine the language. It wasn't enough to call a "trans-woman" a "trans-woman". They want us to call the person a "woman", which is NOT ACCURATE.

Assuming adults are left alone to live their lives, what the hell was wrong with using accurate terms "trans-woman" (a male identifying as a woman) and "trans-man" (female identifying as a man)?

Good luck, I doubt if a majority of republicans would vote for this bill and for sure the current Resident would never sign it.

This is a colossal waste of time, has no chance of serious considering and forget getting it passed. It’s our congress critters sharpening pencils and calling it work.

Not as accurate as "fake woman." Trans implies that they are changing into a woman and currently that isn't possible even if you define them loosely.

I appreciate them taking and stand and it’s an important start. They are the law making body. Who knew that we would be denying biological sex with all the legal ramifications it is creating. Good for them and when we sweep the House and Senate may we pass it with a veto proof majority.

What a snarky article. All I can say is that it’s about time. The pushback is just starting.

What’s insane is that such legislation even needs to be considered.

George Orwell at his finest. Ditto for gender-affirming, which means gender-denying.

Conservatives need to stop allowing the left to redefine our language. We should never use their terms as it only empowers them. Cross-dressing, not trans-whatever is the term historically used and we should continue to use it.

Who knew that we’d one day have a Supreme Court Justice who claimed under oath before Congress the inability to define “woman”, even though said SCJ appears to be one?

I’ve figured out a way to have transgenders compete against women in Olympic sports in a way that seems entirely fair. Let the trannies compete in any sport they choose but they have to compete in those old Victorian dresses, complete with a corset. That should offset the (ahem) ladies’ advantage to a male muscle structure. Whether it’s running track or playing basketball or swimming or shotputting, let’s see those trannies excel in those baggy old dresses with a corset forcing them to suck in their gut. That should make it fair for real women to compete against them.

“anti-trans” - more like pro-reality, pro-biology, pro-woman

But, they can hem and haw that they're "doing something."

Then, when the stupid party holds both houses and the presidency....nary a peep will be made about these bills ever again - see 0bamacare for Exhibit A.

Because there is no such thing?

Newspeak right out of 1984.
