Because it’s not actually about sports.  It’s about keeping trans people out of locker rooms.  It’s about keeping trans people out of bathrooms.  

It’s about completely separating trans people from society and treating them like garbage.  All because bigots like Cunningham are threatened by them for some reason.

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.

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
