The time between the Olympics allowing trans athletes and the first one finally competing was so long that there were cis women who were born and won Olympic medals in between. How exactly did they "push so quickly on sports?" Decades old rules aren't new just because you didn't know they existed.

The quick push was in high school...

Why do you feel high school athletics should have more restrictions than the Olympics?

You keep saying it was going "too quickly." The Olympics allowed trans people 22 years ago. NCAA followed a couple years later, and then after that a smattering of schools and states. If you think that snails pace was "too fast" you're against trans kids in athletics.

High school happened quickly... we went from no one being allowed to allowing all of it in less than a decade. Again, I don't care about this at all. I think trans kids should just be allowed to be. But we can't ignore how most people actually experienced this.

“It wasn’t a problem and that’s why you weren’t paying attention to it for decades. The only thing that happened fast was the fascist assault and relentless onslaught of propaganda that started overnight. THAT is what you noticed.”

Trans kids in high school sports was not in fact happening for decades... Ffs kids being given puberty blockers for being trans wasn't an accepted practice until the LATE 90s.. How old are you?

Old enough to have seen countless cases of thinly veiled bigotry the person is refusing to re-examine even when given space to do so :)

Kids being given puberty blockers is a phenomena that's only 20 years old

No, literally the opposite happened: we went from zero states with trans sports bans in 2020 to 29 currently You imagine evil trans activists throwing the gates open to crush cis kids when the reality is that anti-trans bigots are slamming the gates shut after decades without issue

how many times I need to repeat this - think trans people should be allowed to compete in their gender category. Maybe actually read what's being said instead of being a reactionary. Trans kids being allowed to take puberty blockers wasn't an accepted medical practice until the late 90s...
