- Rep. Seth Moulton (D-MA) is receiving criticism from the LGBTQ community and fellow Democrats over comments he made to the New York Times that included criticism of transgender athletes in sports. Moulton says there should be an open debate within the party about the issue. #CNN #News
I'm a Democrat and I agree with him. I support rights but sports should be a separate discussion.
Sports And Safe Spaces!
Thank you.
So true
With all due respect, this guy is a clown. Democrats did not lose the working class because they defend the weak like transgender people. We lost because we are hostage to corporate donors and we have a not delivered on minimum wage, Medicare for all and other economic wins for the working class. This is weak sauce. Now, with that said, I agree with Bernie that we should not lead with identity politics, rather we should get back to fighting for economic justice for the working class. We should be known for healthcare access, economic /opportunity equity and not identity politics.
So you support killing trans people?
biological women and girls deserve their own spaces
Speech you don’t agree with isn’t always hate speech . Nothing he said was wrong
Yes! But the democrat party has become a party where you have to walk on egg shells because everything is offensive to them.
Exactly I just posted the same thing. People are allowed to have their own beliefs without it being considered hate speech.
@@ewright7274not in a socialist state
Noticed that did yah?
So you are a white supremacist
The fringe of the Left needs to check themselves. Most of us agree with this. It's not hate speech.
@@seeeyegee3061 depending on what is said it may be. Not all disagreement is hate speech. I agree with that but some speech is and THAT is what the employee that left was disagreeing about. Words said in back rooms and behind closed doors have consequences because that is where the bigotry, bias, and hate are expressed. They are seldom expressed where the public can hear the background, meaning, and personal bias embraced by the speaker
They'll never check themselves, they don't see themselves as out of touch.
They see everyone else as out of touch with them, and need to just shut up because they know best.
So you are a bigot?
@@dustinsindledecker154 Lol...nothing bigoted about that belief... absolutely nothing. Did you not learn anything from the election? That dog don't hunt.
It's not the fringe. It's now the majority of the party.
I totally agree with this man. Transgender women have a male body and it’s unfair to women to have them compete on the same team or against them. They should have their own category…
the thing is, the same is not said for Trans men, so if they're gonna complain about trans women they should also think of trans men who by their definition have a female body, also politicians are not in charge of picking who competes against who, that job belongs to the organizations who create the competitions
@@arethanowno trans men aka real women will never play in men’s pro sports . They would get killed . Biological men in women sports will hurt biological women .
@@arethanow😅 5 month old account 😅 nope
@@arethanow I see your point but the fact is no trans men are competing on a national level against biological men and I'd wager not even a 100 compete on a amateur level then there's the fact they choose to compete against biological men so they are only putting themselves at risk but if you put a biological man in women's sport you are putting biological wemon in danger as they never agreed to this so there's a big difference.
@@arethanow if former women athletes chose to compete on Men’s sport, that’s their risk
What he said was common sense.
Getting offended by it is the reason you lost
Exactly
We don’t sacrifice one of our own, future slave.
that's HUGE problem with todays society, they are hugely offended by EVERYTHING. I used to have a son, but he decided I criticized me for hurting his feelings all the time. My opinion never mattered to him but his did. I just get tired of all of it, and he decided to keck me out of his life b/c of .....whatever.....go live your woke life......little delicate flower.
Common sense is not just the amateur thoughts that we have. It is thought that is informed by the experts who have training and experience. That is the only thing that is sensible. This “leader” speaks about things that he apparently knows little about. Too many Americans are equally ignorant. Uninformed “popular opinion” is dumb. Trans athletes at the highest levels is exceedingly rare and evil forces have built their power by stoking fears and ignorance. Why would anyone, especially so-called religious people, lean into such evil? The problem is ignorance, not trans-athletes.
@@piktormusic2538 No, the problem is people not wanting to pretend that just because we agree to CALL someone a woman, doesn't mean they get all the privileges as women.
I guess you’re not allowed to have your own opinion thoughts and beliefs without being accused of hate speech. This is why Democrats lost and they still are not hearing.
Exactly. Where is the hate in that speech? What crybabies are running the politics these days..
Bingo!!!

26 states were suing over Title 9 and it was treated like a nothing burger! Ffs! Women are STILL shouting about this as they are still FORFEITING games across the country, and it continues to fall on deaf ears. WOMEN ARE ASKING FOR PROTECTION. Until a woman is permanently disabled, they won’t change anything. It will be a law named after the woman. How absurd, dark and stupid. This is the most misogynistic time of my 45 years. 😢

Majority agrees with this man
This clown said "Trump is a danger to America" This dude is a clown and the election on Tuesday proved most dont agree with him.
Yes💯
Why is so much time wasted on something like the "trans issue". There are a tiny fraction of them in the whole population.. Just insignificant compared to other issues.
Not just a majority. It's an overwhelming majority of people. The people are extremely fed up with the trans nonsense.
Seth Moulton is 100% right. Our party needs to get its shit together or we're gonna keep losing.
It's happening around the world, liberal parties try to appeal to all fringes and lose the majority working class. Unfortunately, they will drift to the hard-leff until they come to their senses.
You are right on point
Independent voter, and yes, this is true. I voted for both Obama and Trump, former due to War on Terror (7 Years in at the time Obama was Elected with no results at all or plan of egress), hoping that the Democrats would bring the war started by GWB Jr to an end, latter because the Democrats were starting to be overrun by egotists and losing their damned marbles. People are now starting to see the latter while some of us saw the rot 8-10 years ago. Abstained the last 2 elections because I am genuinely fed up with it all. I just wanted a system of checks and balances; I do not lean either way to either party as my loyalties are to whomever can guarantee stability for the citizens of this country which I believe our own government has been unfit to do due to either loyalties abroad and pissing away money in the damned desert (8 Trillion over 20 years with practically no positive results save maybe the death of the instigator of 9/11 makes me doubt the competency of our government's spending capacity), or this ultra-progressive trite that we have seen and you speak of.
Exactly! Or we really need to encourage the far left socialists, to start their own party. Their precious Bernie & AOC can run it. But they are draggin us down. Take ur pro hamas, & pro illegal immigrant, & pro trans, BLM, & good luck to u! Byeeeeeee. U will never be the majority in the democratic party. U had ur chance, u blew it. Bigly
I agree with him 100%. I am all good with gay rights but it has gone way too far when it comes to sports and gender neutral bathrooms. The idea that as a democrat I have to accept all this gender fluid ideology is utter BS. I keep saying we lost the election mostly due to this topic. The idea that any old person can identify as they see fit and I have to adjust to whatever your whims are for the day is garbage.
thats why they lost us hispanics. we really dont play about our children. i admit we are kind of homophobic by default. am not saying we do crime vs gays but we dont want no part of what they are selling. so yea they lost us with this. i know several parents already whos kids came home one day spewing this pronoun crap
How does adjusting to someone else’s choices take something away from you? Do you really think people make these choices to identify differently as some sort of ‘whim’? Do you know how hard it is to live outside society’s expectations of what you should be? When you have a friend or a child who has struggled with identity you might show some compassion- and come on we are talking about a tiny % of the population. Live and let live.
@@jennifermorris833if society is not ready for it, you have to live with that. You have to win elections to make change
@jennifermorris833 If I'm competing against a transwoman as a ciswoman, their choices do take something away from me.
If the person who your replying to doesn't agree with that, he's not very "live and let live."
If we have them in a seperate group, sure, but ciswomen aren't transwomen and ciswomen have their spaces marked for them.
@ The whole idea that you felt the need to add modifier to the word “Woman” is what is wrong with everything in the gay community as a whole right now.
As a Gen X guy I stood next to many men and women looking to gain acceptance for who they were. I can assure you the vast majority of that generation absolutely hate this whole gender identity BS as well as watching men compete in women sports.
Woke is Dead
And long may it RIP.
I really hope this will embolden democrat representatives to speak up. Maybe it will even unify Americans and people can stop walking on eggshells.
thank god and elon n trump
It's a shame and insane that it ever came to life lol!🤡👹
NEWS FLASH. WOKE came from a Black Woman in regards to enlightening her child of how much hate they could get. Sure you're not criticizing her?
CNN is clueless.
I totally agree with him
I see nothing wrong with his position and statement. Anyone who thinks he shouldn't be in congress becasue he actually want to have discussions instead of being a mindless sheep is the one who has no business in congress.
This man is a star!
Star for stating the obvious? For stating something known for 6000 years?
What did he say that was considered hate speech?
It's at the beginning
He’s called a male “male”.
Maybe the non-hatey way could be “former male”. No former male “girls” in women’s sports.
Protect women's sports!!!!
From Trump!))
Protect children classrooms out with the sex books.
He's right. I'm democrat and this crap really bothers me. Also all of those senate hearings when the democrats couldn't answer "what is a woman"? It's ridiculous.
it's delusional is what it is and sheer violence against women and girls but those are the people that run your party and drove it right off a cliff, they won't stop, I think you already know that and we won't stop fighting them for our women and children ever, period. We have plenty of room for another good healthy voice common over, I'll buy the coffee. imo

Read between the legs 😂
Pretty clear to me.
I agree with Seth and I am a Democrat! I think he speaks the truth! This is a much bigger issue to the voting public than the Democrats want to believe.
Why is it men who feel like they are woman always compete in sports like running, boxing, volleyball, or swimming where they know they have an advantage? If they feel like women why don’t they compete in sports like gymnastics or ballet??
Actually some have - but they don’t excel in those areas - look it up and you’ll see the results. That said the girls and women had to include the men in their changing rooms and that’s a problem
Women and girls deserve their own spaces, taking away their rights to appease 1% is insane. Look at the volleyball player that got her face broken. His TDS is insane...
Yet these clowns think that Republicans wanna take their rights away when Democrats are doing their right in front of their faces😂
🚨misinformation alert🚨
Ah yes, look at the one instance of something happening; these things totally never happened in sports before trans people
So trans women should be put into spaces where they're even more at danger of violence than cis women? Just say what you really mean: you don't care at all about trans women.
EWWWWWWWWW ITS A TERF !!!!!!
The only sane democrat that didnt leave the middle political landscape. Respect
He is so so right.
Partly, but transgender issues are here to stay so we all have to find peace with it.
If just one trans athlete is competing at the state level that affects every single girl whos spent their lives moving toward a goal only to have the feelings of one man be all that matters.
I believe Riley Gaines talked about this - in the year she lost to Lia Thomas (trans NCAA swimmer) the 17th place female was someone who had come all the way from Hungary on scholarship to achieve her life long dream of being an NCAA All American (top 16 in the country). She was 17th and lost out by one spot on that dream because of Lia Thomas. In all this talk about equity and equality the Left loves to rant on about - women who have to compete against biological males or trans athletes who may have transitioned but still retain biological advantages (i.e. in swimming larger hands and feet) and lose are not even in the discussion - and if they raise an issue its the TERF label for them and cancelled.
@@jasonsheath3294Riley Gaines and Lia Thomas both came in 5th place. They lost to four other women 😂😂😂😂 but people only seem to care about Lia winning
He's right. It's just a fact most people think the trans thing is really weird and cringe. What's the point in making any distinction between men and women's separate league's if the whole point of it is no longer valid?
Ok, so the trans homecoming queen thing has been done, and trans beauty contests winners, etc., but where does it end?
I can't tell if you're actually dull as shit, or playing stupid. Hormones effect all humans the exact same way. In a medical setting, a trans girl gets seen and treated like any cis woman, because they're no longer at risk for prostate or testicular cancer, and now at risk for breast cancer. They are now objectively hormonally and medically much more similar to any other cis woman, and so it's entirely useless and impractical to act otherwise. Their musculature and athleticism then also begins to change to that of any other cis woman. Hormones aren't special, they don't effect cis and trans people differently. You make a trans persons hormones the same as it would be for a cis person, and their body starts to change to mimic that hormonal profile, just as every cis persons did during puberty; minus completely removing and remaking things that are already there of course. Most trans girls after a few years of HRT, or immediately if done before puberty, have comparable strength to any average cis girl, except they often have a larger bone structure they have to lug around, which leads them to be at an athletic disadvantage compared to cis women as found in some sports and studies. All of the feigned outrage about women's sports is literally just to hate on trans people lmao.
long may the meltdown continue
You can’t change your chromosomes !!!!!
If you were born XX you are XX. If you are born XY you are XY! No amount of plastic surgery and drugs can change these facts.
Sadly this is deemed wrong thought by the censorship of the democratic media machine. They dont want to hear the truth about this and its disasterous consequences. No one even talks about the effects the hormones and puberty blockers have on the kids or what happens to them long term its not pretty.
And yet you can tell a woman that a cluster of cells is a baby?
They just can’t stop . Can they go 2 minutes without mentioning race/sex/gender ? As a 4 time democratic voter I’m sick of it too . The message against biological men in women’s sports is not powerful because it affects most people’s lives … it’s powerful because it’s such a disconnect from reality and reason that it gets people angry when they are struggling to put food on the table .
I am also a Democrat sick of it. Transgender population is roughly 1.6% and this issue is a part of the reason we could be heading to a dictatorship. And it's silly. In agreement with what you said, this issue needs to die, and the transgender rights issues as a whole need to be a "Yeah we fight for peoples rights, but after we make sure everyone can buy food". We are ignoring problems for the 100%.
To add more . I remember a daily show interview with Trevor Noah of a trans advocate (who was a trans athlete ) saying “there’s no proof that biological men have an advantage in women’s sports “ to paraphrase . You could see Trevor was so uncomfortable inside trying to pushback a little … but he couldn’t and kind of just went along with it obviously walking on egg shells. And I love the daily show, and Trevor, and Jon . But it was really disappointing . It was a true the emperor has no clothes moment . We don’t want to live in a delusion .
@@Snidy in military training I sparred ground fighting against a guy who outweighed me a lot. I was a puppet. Gender matters and size does matter. But that's reality and as you say the Emperor has no clothes. While this delusional aura remains, we will be the losers. People tend not to vote for insanity to lead.
That's true. If the Democrats can lie about something so basic, what else can they lie about?
It's only a minority that raises its voice against comments such as the ones he made.
He should be allowed to bring up this issue. Doesn't make him anti trans. It makes him a concerned parent for his daughters safety.
He should have brought up the 900 medals won by trans athletes last year that were supposed to go to girls.
I'm not gonna say he has no right to say it, nor do I question his sincerity, but it just sounds like more hippie-punching to me. Maybe that's the only way to win in America today, but I hope not.
I voted for Obama, Hillary and Biden. This year, I voted Republican all the way down the list because of the economy, the border and the trans issue.
Me too
I’ll never understand why THIS is the hill they’ll die on .
When they themselves claim that it’s a small percent of the population and that a majority of people disagree with their stance .
Cuz they are ideologically possessed by a small group of college activists.
This is the price of having no conservative professors in the universities: democrats losing elections.

@@Sammy_Chouchou Yeah because they are the bastions of "common sense"? Since when did science determine common sense? Pretty much only when it explained why the sun rises in the east and sets in the west and why we experience seasons. And everybody went, "Makes sense" (well, almost everybody...). Beyond that, science and medicine are full to the brim with counterintuitive insights.
@ When the “counterintuitive insights” are supported with double blind testing, repeatable results, peer review and all the other aspects of the scientific method that brought us cancer treatments, the technologies that you are reading this on, and the means for predicting the forest fires, storms and droughts that we see today fourth years ago, I’d say that your science denial is willful ignorance. And, of course, you are free to reject all the science when a member of your family gets sick. I’ve known more than one person who lost a loved one by feeling that science was suspect. But, homeopathy, leeches, whatever…Knock yourself out while America spends trillions on disaster relief in your own country…and mine…and everyone else’s.
@@jiml7183 - What a strange and backward time, where expertise is disregarded whenever it bumps up against religious/superstitious indoctrination and the “common sense” which is actually just amateur opinion based on almost nothing but feelings. I wonder if you would be more open to learning more and understanding the suffering of a very, very small part of your society if you learned that someone close to you was part of that minority, or are you capable of just imagining what it must be like to be born so different than most people and then be subject to open hatred through no fault of your own. Anti-trans is exactly like racism.

You display zero consciousness of your own biases in your comments - you just swinging dogma around like a sledgehammer. I hope your style of debate is dead in this country because it's truly toxic.
@ Whoa! Sammy described human rights as basic, and you claimed that he said that gender reaffirming surgery was basic. The very fact that you consciously avoided the respectful term for that operation and then go after people by declaring that they are biased is a wonder. I think that I get it. You are smart and resent being called ignorant, even though you seem to be rejecting the research and opinions held by a whole group of experts that know more than you do. I don’t thin’ that anyone is accusing you of a lack of intelligence. There is a difference between not knowing something yet and choosing to disregard people who know more than you do. As I said in the other thread, I think that you were never going to be swayed by evidence or expertise and for what ever personal, or perhaps selfish reasons (e.g. you have a daughter that you worry about) wanted what you want, even enough to make excuses and accusation to justify you voting for a party that is actually openly going against human rights. “Surely, I’m not a monster…am I?”) Excuse is for believing that you will have to own your decision and know that when the openly corrupt, authoritarian and hateful administration causes suffering that may very well last for generations, we will still be thinking of you and every other person who isn’t a monster but was willing to turn one lose on people who deserve better.
I am left-leaning and I totally agree with him on this issue. I am totally fine with the fact that someone's pronoun does not match their biological gender and I am willing to call him/her with the pronoun that he/she feels comfortable with. But on a larger and more important scale like sports tournaments, fairness is important and the fact that a transwoman with a biological male body competes against a biological woman is unfair.
Democrats need to listen to this guy!
I’m from ma & there was a girl seriously hurt in sports because of a boy thinking he’s a girl
This topic is a discussion that needs to be had, and the attempts to shut it down and call everyone "transphobic" who might want to talk about it, is a reason people went with Trump.
And being called racist, misogynist, or homophobic instead of having a factual and logical debate.
Ok so this conversation needs to be had between the cis people and the trans people.
That doesn't make it any less true. And you act like it's not easy to be transphobic. It's extremely easy, they make up a very small percentage of the population, it's harder to have empathy and stand up for them because you really don't gain anything from it, but it doesn't make it any less right.
This why y’all lost the election
"formerly male" 😂😂😂

Formerly male “girls” 😂

As a proud openly gay liberal man I agree with everything this man said
I think the LGB has to separate from the T++. There's a massive difference between the two groups and they should not be combined. Millions of people, like myself, are fully supportive of your rights but find these trans issues completely outlandish.
Lmao, it's gonna ironic when they come for you then
I'm a moderate who has voted on both sides of the aisle. This is one of the issues I cannot agree with Democrats on. After a father of a 12 year old daughter who swims competitively at the national level, I strongly believe that biological sex at birth should be the standard by which group girls and boys compete in. There's no way I would let someone self identify and compete in the other group.
If there is a trans person reading this. What about a trans women competing with men? Why is that not okay. Is it a safety issue? Just genuinely want to know. I agree with this person statement that it’s just not fair for a women to compete against someone who is biologically made with male parts. but what is the what appears to Be notion that they must compete in a sport with the gender they identify with.
And that's why you're not a doctor or expert on the matter
@@nidhinayyar5887because trans women are NOT men.
"Pick on our most vulnerable" lol, what? Trans women may be vulnerable in certain scenarios -- walking on the street, in certain jobs -- but they're the opposite of vulnerable if you put them next to biological women in competitive sports. The biological women are the ones vulnerable in that setting and that's all he pointed out.
"what about people who say this isn't up for debate" is a absurd question. Literally undemocratic
It’s because there are no conservatives in the Universities. So they learn to debate nothing; they’re just spoon-fed dysfunctional propaganda.
Why not talk to some transgender people they will tell you it isn't a fair game ?
No offense

These people don’t realize in towns of just 1000 people schools have to deal with trans issues. It is not a small thing trans issues are in every single little town across the country. It only takes one trans person to transition or say they are transitioning and the whole school system has to accommodate.
Anyone saying this isn’t affecting kids and parents is wrong. My daughter’s teacher taught her she could be a boy/girl/neither/both. I told her the truth but I also had to say we can’t talk about it with anyone. Confusing and unfair to kids.

I agree with Moulton. I'm a gay Asian that went from Democrat to independent because the Democratic party just became pansies with this whole Woke movement among other things. If you are seeking equality, then do things like the first transgender congresswoman to show we fit in society like anyone else does. We only alienate ourselves more by crying and bitching for equal rights. Is the glass ceiling higher for us? Absolutely! But that's how we break barriers; we show up and we work and we do it so much better, that people on the opposite aisle will have no choice but to respect the work we put out. They don't have to like us, but at least they respect us.
Stop with the labels! Geez.
Who cares if he lost staff?? OMG. Journalists don't ask good questions anymore. Most of us aren't softies. If you disagree with your boss, you leave. SIMPLE.
As a Democrat who's a constituent of the Massachusetts 6th congressional district, the high esteem in which I've always held Mr. Moulton is now even higher. If this past election taught us anything, it's that the Democrats need to be more in tune with what is really important to average Americans instead of getting lost in the Woke-Weeds. I applaud Seth for the honesty and courage to stand up to the overly influential lunatic fringe of our party and tell the blunt truth. Whenever a Republican has the integrity to stick to their principles and stand up to MAGA, we find it disgusting that common sense politicians are so brutally attacked by their own party. Ironically, the far left are trying to carry out the exact same hatchet job on Moulton for sticking to his common sense principles. I respect the man. Our party needs more like him
You're gonna start seeing the democrat bench getting ready for 2028 and hes already standing out i like him already
It is pretty incredible how much better the world has already become and Trump hasn't even been sworn in yet. I knew he would do good things but I never expected him to fix EVERYTHING so easily.
He is so magical
Forget trans issues and actually win elections
because that worked out so well for Colin Allred?
85% of all Americans wish to keep women’s sport female only. That is not only republicans. Biology is not bigotry and the majority of people wish for common sense, fairness and to let children be children without medicalising gender non conformity and destroying their sexual function and reproduction for life. Democrats have still not grasped how big this issue was for women who also care about abortion rights but know our rights don’t begin and end there. The “no debate” stance the Dems still insist upon on this issue and others contributed to their loss at the polls.
"Trump is a danger to America" BWHAHAHA!!! This guy is still clueless and dont get it. VANCE/GABBARD 2028!!!!

I guess we now have to say this: DEMOCRATS are not a MONOLITH!
No no no stop you cant have common sense. Stop or you will be canceled 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Two gender
I’m a democrat who agrees with him. 🤷🏻♂️
Ahh yes. Now the US starts to heal.
End woke policies, I hope more democrats start waking up from this
You guys are yet to learn 😂😂😂😂
I will vote democrat again when they are able to define a "WOMAN." LOL!
The west is healing
This shouldn’t even be a partisan issue as it’s the truth. Biologically individuals who have gone through male puberty may retain advantages in terms of muscle mass, bone density, and cardiovascular capacity even after transitioning, which could affect fairness, especially in competitive sports.
Performance Disparities: Research has shown that, in some cases, transgender women may maintain certain performance benefits compared to cisgender women, even after hormone therapy.
Americans agree with him. We reject progressive ideology completely.
Formally males should realise that there are negatives that go with being trans gender rather than force girls to suffer because of them. Every choice has pros and cons. Rights are about having the choice not about playing girls sports. Sorry if the truth hurts.
Congresswoman John Moran should be laughed out of town
Also can we stop questioning anything and everything to do with trans as being transphobic. Phobic means I'm afraid of them. We are not afraid of trans, we just need answers. I have 2 gay co-workers who think men transitioning then playing in women's sports is completely mind-boggling.
If people are not afraid of trans then why are they claiming trans people are dangerous in bathrooms?
_Stop it. Get some help._
I'm an independent and I have to agree with him.
Nothing against trans people and their rights.
But democrats need to stop obsessing over trans people who are still a very small section of the society.
They don't. They literally didn't talk about trans people once in Kamala's campaign. It's Republicans that roll ads and talk about hardly much else besides trans people because they know most liberals are also reactionary brainlets like their own voters.
We are going to continue to vote against this nonsense it's over
How dare Moulton say what all the normal people know to be true. Dems overplayed the identity politics crap.
There is no such thing as a "trans" athlete or a "trans" person; these are simply beliefs. Aliens, God, flat/round earth, and trans people. Believe that you want, but don't get upset when you hear views that don't align with yours.
😂wake up. Stand up for Womens rights mean no Guys i. Womens sports
This is ridiculous!! I need a link about how many trans are actually playing in women's sports. Democrats are running scared. I am ashamed.
Transwomen taken 900 medals so far in womens sports. Olympic 2024, competitive womens boxing allowed only since 2012. And only 12 years later they are being hit in the face by biological men with 162% more in punching piwer causing women to drop out within minutes of being in the ring. The same biological men swept gold medals. They had been banned to box in womens competitions but decision over ridden by Olympic committee. So stop being lazy asking for links. Take your blinkers off, listen, stop pretending you support women retaining their rights and do some research yourself. Theres loads of it.
Here’s the problem there are people who are truly concerned about transgender athletes competing, especially at younger ages.
That is a problem actually we know for a fact that men on average are born with larger frames than women, taller, and wider I’m not talking muscle because muscle advantages for men can’t eventually be worked out in the case of transgender men competing with women. You can work out the muscular advantages if they are on a hormone therapy, the muscles go away, but there’s one advantage you can’t get rid of that person can be born with just by being male and that’s the actual of the human body men are traditionally, taller and wider than women. When I say men, I’m talking just about the male sex those who are born with XY chromosomes, that’s just a fact of nature. With that being said a transgender individual typically born with Y chromosomes would likely be taller wider than someone born with XX chromosomes. It’s a fact that it can be unfair and I don’t blame parents who complain for their children who might compete in the environment or women who complain who might have to compete in this environment.
Don’t get me wrong I want transgender children and adults to be able to compete in sports but we have to be fair. We should look at your chromosomes when deciding which group you compete with.
Now for the record, there are exceptions to the rule. Some people are literally born with three different chromosome types or four different chromosome types. XXY XXXY that stuff can get crazy. However, let’s just keep it basic. We should just tell people this is how it has to be because it is truly unfair to the other group. we’ve all heard that example what happens if suddenly tomorrow one huge NBA star decides to say I’m transgender and goes to the WNBA. They would suddenly start setting records that most WNBA stars wouldn’t be able to repeat. It’s just not fair. We have to recognize it and just tell individuals who are transgender. This is the way it is. I don’t say that to be sexist. I don’t say that to Aunty anything because I’m not but the science tells us this is what it is. Physiology biology as far as your height, weight stature, based on your chromosomes that’s what I’m talking about when I say biology I don’t care what you want to identify as just go compete with your group of chromosomes.
In fact, that’s what we should call it XX or XY. Ditch the idea of male female because that is human interpretation of things go with the letters now I don’t care who or what you are just go compete with your group.
I agree that 100% keep up the good work
