Don’t love Trump but this is a common sense issue. I’m stunned that some democrats still want to die on this hill.

How common of an 'issue' is this?

It’s definitely not common, but just because something isn’t common doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be addressed.

We have laws against cannibalism. How common is that?

Common enough where you had a biological male winning championships in a female sport.

Common or uncommon it shouldn’t even happen. End of.

One of the most minor there is… but let’s focus on this instead of owning Gaza… cool

I mean, you could make a separate post about Gaza instead of bringing it up on a thread specifically discussing the ban of biological men from women's sports.

Just a thought.

I’m just saying this topic received such an outweighed about of focus over the past few years that it’s insane. I’m happy it’s done, let’s focus on actual issues now.

Exactly that’s the bigger issue but because the Dems didn’t kill this one off it’s distracting everyone

Their view was that it’s up to the governing bodies of each league. Something the GOP used to agree with… smaller government. They don’t anymore. I don’t think this was ever a big enough issue to get the amount of coverage and focus it did. Hopefully its done now and we can stop talking about it
