    that's the first i heard of that. that's admittedly a little concerning. 
    Wait, you’re cool with his anti-trans bullshit, but you draw the line at birtherism?
    he's not anti-trans. i've listened to him talk a lot about it, and he has no issue with people being trans. he has issues with trans women competing against cis women in sports, which i agree with. imagine if brock lesnar was a trans woman. you think that's a level playing field?
    That’s anti-trans, champ.

    no it isn't champ, it's common sense biology.

    Really doubling down on your own transphobia. Bold move.

    find the quotes of his anti-trans stances. I'll wait.

    What I have heard him speak on specifically is trans women competing against born biological women. trans women have the unfair advantage of testosterone at work in their bodies until hormone therapy begins for that individual ,which doesnt negate the prior physical advantage testosterone has played.

    He is quite clear about adult trans people making choices for themselves, as in be who you are or feel you are. His issue is when parents of under 10 yrs make decisions about hormone therapy for those kids. He says support love and nurture these kids but let them make those decisions later once grown for themselves.

    Struggling with your view here, so let me make sure I'm not just uninformed.  If Usain Bolt started taking hormone replacement therapy to transition to a woman, he (today) should be able to compete against cis women, and that's an equal playing field?

    I don’t care where he’s coming from. I care that he’s spouting anti-trans nonsense. That’s not baiting. I consider his views extremely harmful.

    I 100% agree with Hugh and there is no way that view is anti trans.

    i asked the same thing using brock lesnar as an example. crickets. this whole all encompassing "you need to let (x group of people) do what they want or you are anti-(that group)!". it's nonsense.

    how is it harmful to cite science? maybe instead of a women's division and men's division in sports, we create a more all-inclusive based on physical attributes or other types of criteria instead of just penis or vagina?
