Reading these comments you would think he hates trans people. Instead, he said:
“I think it’s an issue of fairness. I completely agree with you on that. It is an issue of fairness, it’s deeply unfair… I revere sports. So, the issue of fairness is completely legit," he said.
On the topic girls playing sports against genetic males.
I’m sure preventing medical care for trans kids will make things much fairer. As in, they will just fucking die and the cises won’t have to worry about inclusion anymore.
How is it any less fair than high school kids playing against someone who’s being scouted for professional sports? Do you think it was more fair for high school boys to play against LeBron James before he was drafted into the NBA? The entire argument is bullshit and framed just so to give bigots cover for their bigotry.
If you want fairness in high-school sports, force everyone be ranked based on their skill level not their gender because that’s what wins games not a dick and balls.
That’s a red herring. Also, the science doesn’t match the fear. Anyone on hormonal blockers to transition to female no longer has a biological advantage.
It’s the same old racist, sexist, other-ist argument disguised as fairness.
So he doesn’t hate trans people, he just wants to inspect every child athlete’s genitals to make sure they’re in the right locker room. Whew, that’s a relief.

If that were true, then there would be no controversy whatsoever.
However, this is the rare case where facts don’t have a liberal bias.
Transgender women are setting a disproportionate number of new world records in women’s athletics.
Sports should have two categories: “open” and “female”

This is a great wedge issue for conservatives to split liberals.
Care to point us to some sources saying they’re breaking world records? I’m having trouble corroborating that.
Ceding the framing to the Nazi position for political expediency isn’t much better.
