GOP-led House Passes Bill Banning Men From Women's Sports

[Diogenes]

​

The House passed the Protection of Women and Girls in Sports Act on Jan. 14, with a vote of 218-206.

The legislation excludes males from participating in women’s sports sponsored by organizations that receive federal funding.

The legislation, introduced by Rep. Greg Steube (R-Fla.), is also likely to pass in the Senate, where Republicans hold a 53-47 majority.

 

[Walt]

Obvious question: why do the Republicans think the government has the right to decide who can compete in private sports competitions? It is for the governing bodies of those sports to decide.

And yet Title IX accepts separate but equal in sports.

So if you receive any federal funding, anywhere in the organization, then men and women can not play sports together? By order of Congress?

Read it again, slowly. The legislation excludes males from participating in women’s sports sponsored by organizations that receive federal funding.

Exactly; men and women. Separate.

 

[Walt]

Exactly; men and women. Separate.

Or not, all dependent on the decision of the governing body of the sport. When we allow the government to take over private decisions, we lose our freedom.

Are you salty because you can't identify as a little girl and pitch for an elementary school's girls softball team, or something?

Yes, it takes away the decision from the governing body of the private sport, and hands it over to the government.

AOC was incensed.

She sounded ridiculous...

The sports obviously need guidelines.... This takes care of that nicely...

No, it takes away federal funding from organizations that receive federal funding and want trannies to beat up on women.

 

[TOP]

It's an easy rule... Man participate on men's teams. Women participate on women's teams.. Boys participate on boy's teams.Girls participate on girl's teams..

We need Congress to tell everyone how to play sports?

Will they send the National Guard to arrest everyone running in the Boston Marathon? "Men and women are running together.... Oh the humanity!!! We must stop it!!!!"

Congress makes laws. Maybe you missed that.

The National Guard? Arrests?

You think the Boston Marathon is a federally funded women's sporting event being invaded by biological males who identify as female?
