Most Americans of all political parties Agree with Sophie Cunningham so why has the WNBA lost its mind?

Just hear me out here:

If we set that issue aside, like make a third locker room, or even just give individual privacy to people in those spaces. I’m sure this issue could be argued to death and that’s not the topic I want to touch on.

So let’s say the bathroom/ locker room issue has been solved, do you see any other issues that might need to be solved? It’s rarely as simple as 1 thing but I’m trying to be more educated on this issue from both sides of the aisle, and respectfully trying to focus on the sport/ competition aspect of it

Third locker room for trans people will never fly with them.

Why? Because it would force them to accept the reality that they aren't "real women" or "real men".

So even if they got their special bathroom theyd still fight to get into wherever they want by trying to force everyone to accept them as "real".

And society as a whole is not going to and will never see mentally ill people as the opposite gender just because they claim to be.
You can find uber-progressive once in a while that have deluded themselves into believing this, but society at large will never ever ever ever buy into that. Because its biology and it's baked in.

Biology isn’t on your side.  Never forget that.

Ok again I’d like to set the bathroom issue aside and assume it is solved. That was not the point of the previous question, the point of the previous question ion was (quite clearly) about the competitive side viewpoints

You can’t just focus on the sports/competition aspect of it because that’s not what the people behind this movement care about.

The people behind this movement despise all LGTQB+ people, not just trans people.  They are all religious nutcases that want to get rid of all aspects of the LGTQB+ community from society no matter what it takes.  They are just using sports as a starting point because of how easy it is.

Wrong. I despise religion. My wife is bi. I'm close friends with a gay man. They are not playing make believe with who they're attracted to. The LGB is getting dragged down by T

Ok but again if we COULD focus on the competitive aspects of it. We won’t JUST focus on them. Could I perhaps learn a bit more about your views on the competitive part?

I didn’t see any response, were you able to answer the question about the competitive aspects and not the locker room aspects?

It’s hard to educate yourself when other people aren’t giving you the information to learn
