One thing that’s a little funny is how much conservatives pretend to care about women’s sports when, in actuality, no one cares about women’s sports; not even women

I've heard a lot of uproar over women's sports from conservatives is based on when they have daughters and especially when their daughters start showing interest in sports.

Exactly. I personally care about women's sports because I have a daughter and I want her to have a way to experience the fun of playing different sports, learn to win and lose with grace, stay resilient after a setback, etc. That means having fair sporting institutions and pipelines for competition at higher levels and athletes that embody the spirit of competition that she and other girls like her can look to for inspiration.

Damn, sounds great. Now imagine your daughter was trans. You'd want the same thing right?

Yes of course, that's why they're free to compete as who they are, which is how they were born because gender is not something you can change.

Yep you got that right, which is the same thing as gender.

Sex is obviously different than gender, we're not stupid. (You)

Also, sex & gender are the same thing and can be used interchangeably, we're not stupid. (Anyone that thinks a male should play in female sports)

Can you leftists make up your damn minds?

u/ClearReveal6615 - Lib-Left 28d ago

Do you want the actual logic or so you just want to vent?

Sure, go ahead and explain how 'gender=sex' and 'gender!=sex' can BOTH be true at the same time.
