DEMOCRATS BELIEVE BOYS IN GIRLS’ SPORTS IS “PART OF PROTECTING GIRLS SPORTS”

From Red Virginia News

In the 2023 Virginia legislative session, no less than 23 Republican legislators sponsored HB1387, a bill which prohibited biological males from participating in public school sports team designated for biological females. While the bill passed the Republican-controlled House, it was killed in the Democrat-controlled Senate committee.

In the 2024 session, Republican legislators again introduced the legislation only to see it defeated by Democrats. The result; boys would be welcome to fully compete in girls’ sports teams in Virginia. In fact, Hanover County Public Schools faced a lawsuit brought by the American Civil Liberties Union of Virginia and Freshfields Bruckhaus Deringer LLP after denying a transgender student from trying out for the girls’ tennis team. Legal director Eden Heilman stated, “This [is] a reminder to school boards that protecting transgender young people is part of protecting girls sports.” (Emphasis added.)

This dilemma of biological males competing against biological females is not unique to Virginia. The world watched in horror as a boxer in the women’s division of the Olympics drove his opponent to the ground in 47 seconds. After the match it was revealed, the Turkish boxer had previously been barred from international women’s boxing competition for having male chromosomes. That boxer went on to win the gold medal by defeating another boxer who also tested positive for male chromosomes, effectively ending Olympic boxing for women.

To reach a compromise on men in women’s sports, a coach in Oregon suggested an “Open” category for transgender athletes. The coach was immediately fired and had to go to the US District court for financial compensation.

In North Carolina a high school female volleyball player suffered serious head injuries after being hit by a spike from a male volleyball player competing as a female.

The Biden/Harris administration, in April 2024, unilaterally modified Title IX and its protection of women’s athletics to include LGBTQ+ self-identification for gender. This would end protection of girls and women’s sports for all schools with federal funding.

The Supreme Court issued a temporary 5-4 ruling against the changes in August 2024, but this is only a temporary ruling. Court cases are pending against those with male genitalia using women’s locker rooms in schools in Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Hawaii and others. schools which refuse access of male students identifying as female into women’s lockers and showers will lose federal funding based on the new Biden/Harris re-write of Title IX.

The Democratic party is actively campaigning to undermine opportunities for women in sports. Democratic support and encouragement of transgendered females to participate in “women’s” sports defies logic and biology. Every time a young girl or woman steps on a field, jumps in a pool, or stands on a court they compete against those with a biological advantage that no amount of training can overcome. Cutting girls from a high school sports teams to make room for biological boys defies years of legal intent from Title IX. Allowing young women to be injured while competing in contact sports against the transgendered with size and strength advantages defies the reason for Title IX’s protections of women’s safety. Forcing girls and women to share shower and changing facilities destroys years of fund raising for safe, secure, separate facilities.

Boys in girls’ sports is not “protecting girls sports.” Voters must send this message to the Democratic Party by voting the bums out. This year, vote Republican to PROTECT OUR DAUGHTERS.
