ACLU's Facts and Myths About Transgender Athletes
|
[Breitbart] The ACLU posted an article on its website titled: "Debunk the myths fueling anti-trans legislation."
A growing number of states are advancing legislation to reserve sports participation based on biological sex instead of gender identity.
| Watch for families with sporty daughters move to those states in the next few years, then vote Republican. Then watch the same thing happen at the college level, as those sporty girls realize that the game continues to be rigged by “the very best” schools, and choose to take their good grades and activity- and award-rich college apps elsewhere. Until *poof* there is a de facto split between the girls league and the trans league. |
"Though we are prepared to fight in the legislature to defend trans rights, it will take more than legislative action," the report said. "It will require rooting out the inaccurate and harmful beliefs underlying these policies.
Here are the four "facts" and "myths," which seem to present "myths" as "facts" and vice versa.
• The ACLU said it is a fact that including "trans athletes benefits everyone. The myth is that "participation of trans athletes hurts cis women" — or biological women who live as women.
"Many who oppose the inclusion of trans athletes erroneously claim that allowing trans athletes to compete will harm cisgender women," the report said. "This divide and conquer tactic gets it exactly wrong. Excluding women who are trans hurts all women. It invites gender policing that could subject any woman to invasive tests or accusations of being ’too masculine’ or ’too good’ at their sport to be a ’real’ woman."
"The real motive is never about protection — it’s about excluding trans people from yet another public space," the report said.
This claim is not backed up by data, including reports of women suffering injuries wrestling with biological men who have been allowed to compete with women as transgender women.
This was enough for me, but there is more at the link.
