After months of degrading transgender athletes under the guise of protecting women’s sports, right-wing media weirdos are suggesting the WNBA “embrace” the sexualization of its players.

You might want to look beyond "right-wing media weirdos" in your search for views on protecting women's sports from men, because the public - including Democrats like me - are not in favour of men in women's sports, or any single-sex spaces. The courts and public sentiments have shifted.

Remember Bobby Riggs playing Billy Jean King? Suggest a round of golf between Trump & a female golfer with no cheating. Billy Jean King won. (I know Riggs had the double’s court and King had the singles’ court.) Trump can play off the “Ladies’ Tees.”

I look forward to the day when people no longer use religion as an excuse to treat fellow humans as social outcasts or as inferior in dignity and worth.

Absolutely at the core, every faith (and even life without one) should be about compassion and respect. The world would be a much better place if we truly lived by that

I have no desire to degrade trans-identifying athletes. I do have the desire to keep male persons out of women's spaces, sports and facilities, regardless of how they identify. To admit men is a direct violation of the right of women to their sexual identity.

It's never about protecting anyone. Ending abortion was supposed to be about protecting children, but not from starvation OR PEDOPHILES. The whole fight against transgender people was supposed to be about protecting women and children, BUT TRUMP LOVES HIS SEXUAL PREDATORS

Also transphobic policies just directly hurt children. For example the risk of trans youth being the vicims of sexual assault goes up if forced to use the bathroom based on sex assigned at birth www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/poli...

Trump LOVES sexual assault. He would be so happy to know more people would be sexually assaulted by choices he made. He would give those rapist cabinet positions if he could

It makes sense if you center the cis hetero white male into your policies. Their unreasonable fear of being attracted to trans women. Combined with their desire to continue seeing women as sexual objects (women should be flattered by catcalls)

A. Weight class is a better guideline than sex. My daughter got clobbered by a huge girl in field hockey & broke a tooth. B. Looking forward to when they sexualize men's sports. Now, all I have is Ben Shelton wiping his face with his shirt - (I see that belly button) - between plays. More, please.

Not sure if you understand but many on all sides of the political spectrum (including women's groups funnily enough) have opinions about post pubertal males in women's sports.
