8th Place: A High School Girl’s Life After Transgender Students Join Her Sport

When two high school athletes who were born male but identify as female took first and second place at Connecticut’s girls indoor track championship this year, it wasn’t just a local news story.
To some, it was a story of triumph and courage. The winner, a junior from Bloomfield High School, set a girls state indoor record of 6.95 seconds in the 55-meter dash, and went on to win the New England titles in both the 55-meter dash and the 300-meter dash.
To others, it was a story of shock and disappointment: Is this the end of women’s sports?
To Selina Soule, a 16-year-old runner from Glastonbury, it was personal.

As this moves forward, "girls" sports will be destroyed and the number of girls who participate will likely drop off as they do not want to compete against biological males. Yet another part of life that the "progressives" are destroying.

Maybe there should be a transleague for all competitive sports....

Within 10 years, these "boys" will be playing on girls college teams. This will destroy all of the gains that women have made in sports equality in terms of funding and equal number of teams and participants. Once one college team wins a national championship in "women's" basketball with biological males on the team, all schools will have to recruit males to play for them to remain competitive. Then the number of girls who would have played these sports will likely drop off as they no longer wish to compete against bigger, stronger she males. The goals of Title IX will effectively end.

It’s the only way liberal men can be competitive

I don't agree with men (Technically) competing against women.
BUT, Its ok for women to play on men's football, soccer and baseball teams, and its ok for girls to join boy scouts. So what's the difference, now ?

Frankly, I think eventually there will be a "woke" moment when society agrees this is not acceptable. It isn't natural and in fact it just isn't fair, pure and simple.

And how many women play on men's teams, 9:01?

Now do you understand the difference?

What's the problem Russia and most of Europe have been doing it for years. The ladies have pushed their bodies both physically and biologically with performance enhancing drugs that they can barely be classified as a woman.

Just because they do it Europe doesn't make it ok. United States didn't become the greatest country ever by following another country's policies
