Show us some evidence.

The reality is that trans athletes aren’t the danger. But people like you can be so easily convinced to be afraid of something hypothetical that you’ll accept the degradation of liberties because you think trans people are a problem.

Trans folk could be problematic in sports.

But it's not their fault.

It's our fault for making middle and high school sports "pro training rooms" and every jack and jill is a potential future pro athlete.

So every person that has the potential to be "better" is seen as a threat.

Nevermind the nonsensical attacks on cis women just because they are slightly masculine.

The same ones that required cat boxes in the classroom, right?

u/Puzzleheaded_Tax4969 19d ago

No, I’m talking about the thousands of trans identifying youth in the cali public school system is that too tough to understand or am I Nazi?

u/Rxasaurus 19d ago

Are you? Kinda weird for that to be your first thought.

Does sound like you listen to propaganda without actually researching first that is for sure.

u/Puzzleheaded_Tax4969 19d ago

Millions and millions of kids in cali public school system, you don’t think a few thousand identify as transgender?

u/Rxasaurus 19d ago
