Biden* destroys womens' sports

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.
Quote: Mere hours after stressing the need for “unity,” President Biden sparked a new civil war with an executive order letting transgender women compete in women’s sports. On social media, #BidenErasedWomen and #TERFs (an acronym for “trans-exclusionary radical feminist”) trended following the action. That’s understandable: It’s one thing, after all, to ban discrimination; it’s another to tell schools and colleges that trans women athletes — biologically born boys who now identify as female — must be allowed to compete with biological women and girls, despite their physical advantages. The notion is patently ridiculous and may result in girls losing out on prestigious sports victories (and maybe scholarships that go with them). It also risks greater injuries to women. A better solution, perhaps, might be to give trans athletes a league of their own. Meanwhile, the US Education Department will now switch sides in two court battles, one in Connecticut and another in Idaho, over whether transgender athletes are treated by their biological sex or by how they identify. Surely Title IX, the landmark federal law that guarantees equal opportunity for women and girls in education and sports, wasn’t drafted with the intent of allowing biological women to go up against female-identifying men. “A new glass ceiling was just placed over girls,” Wall Street Journal contributor Abigail Shrier tweeted. Clearly Biden wants to signal his left-wing bona fides early, but if such foolish moves foreshadow what’s to come, forget about “unity.”

This would just be one of many reasons why when the Left in the current state it is in is going to embarrass the hell out of itself and start eating each other alive. I couldn't personally give two shits less about any sports and would happily offer them up as a sacrificial lamb to Woke Leftist Culture.

I couldn't personally give two shits less about any sports and would happily offer them up as a sacrificial lamb to Woke Leftist Culture.I checked "Executive Order on Preventing and Combating Discrimination on the Basis of Gender Identity or Sexual Orientation" https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/presidential-actions/2021/01/20/executive-order-preventing-and-combating-discrimination-on-basis-of-gender-identity-or-sexual-orientation/ Biden's executive order makes absolutely no difference for WNBA Women's National Basketball Association adding or not adding male players on the women only teams. That it is for the owners to decide. Biden's executive order doesn't even make any difference about girls on boys high school basketball teams. Or boys on girls teams. It is the decision of the schools about who goes on what team. But whatever is decided by owners or schools, it will end up going to courtrooms and judges and lawyers. All Biden did is say the Federal government will send its lawyers into these endless courtroom arguments as if more lawyers with more conflicting opinions will help a judge make a quicker, better decision on who plays on which team.
