    Yes, she certainly is. And she's very fortunate she hasn't had to compete against men masquerading as women.

    Like, how do you know she wouldn’t clean up against trans women? Men are inherently better at gymnastics?

    It’s all a distraction from the march to fascism and the failures of the COOTWH administration.

    To be fair, gymnastics is probably one of the only sports where women have an edge over men. The best male gymnastics probably can’t do what the women do (and vice versa, that’s why they have diffferent events).

    It's all common sense, really. Have women compete against women, men against men, and trans against trans. Done! You're all welcome.

    how to you propose they do trans vs trans sports? in most states there are not enough trans kids to field two 5 on 5 basketball teams. you could have 1 in every school district and its still not enough to have a league.

    They definitely would...I'm in agreement with separating though. It would be a never ending argument/battle otherwise.

    Still just need 2 divisions. Biological females only, and an open division for anyone and everyone.

    Kind of like swimming. Freestyle isn’t a stroke. You have back, breast and butterfly and you can o ly do those strokes in that event. The freestyle event is whatever you want to do as long as you typically don’t touch the bottom. Most people choose to do what is called the crawl stroke because that’s fastest, but there are no regulations on what you do. You can doggy paddle if you want. It’s an open, or free, event.

    Biological females only and an open division. Just need 2.

    I played football in high school. For some reason, gym class decided to have intramural flag football one week.  I ran my route and accidentally ran directly into a girl who was coming the other way. The result was her getting blown off her feet, leaving school for the rest of the day to go to the doctors, and coming back the following day with a few cracked ribs. I spent weeks feeling like a piece of crap.  This is what you want?

    maybe don't treat a game of mixed flag football like a rugby game full of grunts? sounds like you were the issue.

    Based on the short story, not his fault. One, kids playing football in PE are always going to be competitive. But sounds like their paths just unknowingly crossed, not like he purposely body checked her to make a play. Can happen in almost any sport. Playing soccer, looking at the ball down field and running in another direction and accidentally running into another player. It happens.
    I remember being in middle school playing soccer and kicked the ball as hard as I could, and it went straight into a girls head. I don’t think she was injured, but her brother was pissed. Completely didn’t mean to, just don’t think I realized she was as close as she was. kids playing sports in PE are just going to be competitive. Can’t expect them not to be.

    **now that I think about it, it must have been recess. Most sports in PE they separated out boys and girls for that reason.

    "USAG was thrust into the spotlight this past weekend after Olympic legend Simone Biles garnered mass backlash for attacking former NCAA swimmer and conservative influencer Riley Gaines. Biles called Gaines "truly sick" and suggested Gaines is the size of a male after Gaines pointed out that a Minnesota high school whose softball team won a state championship Friday with a transgender pitcher, and that Minnesota's high school league disabled comments on an X post of the announcement. 

    Biles has since issued a public apology for her comments against Gaines. "
