Why don’t the states decide this? oh, because they already have. “At least 24 states have laws or policies that restrict transgender athletes from participating in sports based on their gender identity”

No men in girl sports or locker rooms - how is this even an issue?

You mean states rights exist only when they align with MAGA.

Considering that transgender girls arent girls, this one is a rare supreme court nobrainer.

No worries. Trans advocates love coming up with creative ways to say I disagree with your opinion although I cant articulate my own. While not a gold medal contender, yours was pretty good.

Why do you think transgender girls are not girls? Do you mean to say they are not biologically female? Because I’d agree with that.

So then you would find the statement "males should not play in female only sports"to be noncontentious? I disagree with the idea that declaring yourself to be a girl or woman or female, makes you a girl or woman or female. Same logic applicable to boy, man, male. And yes to the second.

Teddy Roosevelt (Ghost) @rooseveltsghost.bsky.social

I would just add “biological” to the start of that statement, but yes. I don’t get your second point at all. It seems like you think gender identity isn’t real. Do you have a gender?

Alice Lastname @john-92.bsky.social

If your original argument is that gender and sex are different, then why would I need to add biological to the mention of sex? Are there non biological males and is this a distinct concept from non biological boys/men?

Alice Lastname @john-92.bsky.social

Yes I have a gender. I am a man and a male, and both of those two facts are wholly independent of me declaring myself to be a man or male. Are gender and gender two different concepts?

Teddy Roosevelt (Ghost) @rooseveltsghost.bsky.social

Because it wasn’t clear that you were referring to sex. For instance: A (biologically female) transgender boy could play girls sports. No biological advantage.

I want to explain my cynicism. There are times when it is just not prudent to advance a case to SCOTUS when the right you're fighting for is one of the very rights those sitting Justices have been appointed to destroy. It's a noble fight, but a losing one. This is a good read: archive.ph/NAdjf

Saying we maybe dont need boys on girls sports teams isnt authoritarian...granted, Id acknowledge there are plenty of other authoritarian adjacent concerns to worry about.

A) They shouldn’t even bother hearing the case; we already know exactly what their cruel and ignorant decision will be; B) Is all this bullshit really the best use of our judiciary’s resources? C) 99.99% of Americans had no issues with this before Rs came along and demonized trans people.

Who cares? Can’t they just not complete for the good of us all? I don’t care what they do but giving republicans an axe to chop up our rights is making it too easy. Plus, you are not challenging fairly and that’s not sporting.
