"Every male allowed to compete against girls is a mockery & humiliation of girls' dreams, work and accomplishment...

...Well, we aren't going to take it. Maine Girls aren't going to take it. We're done! We will not be told lies."

@HelenWebberley It means that people of all political stripes, including Democrats, can see the insanity of allowing male athletes to compete in women's/girls' sports. It's that simple. And if it weren't for all the "genital inspections" lies, the votes would have been even more lopsided.

If you listen to nothing else today, at least listen to Jameis Winston's hard count here lmao 😂

Nobody’s denying that you’re human or that you shouldn’t have the same rights as every other human. What you aren’t entitled to is everyone else’s agreement that you are what you claim to be, compliance with your quasi-religious views or the removal of women’s sex-based rights.

@HelenWebberley 14 year-old wants to join U15 team and is told to bring proof of age first. Wrestler for 148 ln weight class is required to weigh in to verify weight is not > 148 lbs.

It's not exactly earth shaking that competitors in a restricted category need to prove they meet requirements.

Female footballers who ‘look male’ are subject to intense online speculation. There’s a very simple way to end the speculation and verify if female footballers are in fact female…

A simple cheek swab test would identify players with the SRY gene which ONLY occurs on the male Y chromosome. No SRY gene = female.

FIFA could end the misery for these players and their teammates by introducing cheek swab tests for all national and international players. If these players want to represent their country at the Olympics they will require a sex test anyway so why is @FIFAcom dallying?

There are numerous suspected males playing elite women’s football, especially in the National Women’s Soccer League in the USA where players earn millions of dollars a year. Could that have something to do with FIFA’S continuing refusal to grasp the issue 🤷🏻‍♀️

@DrNWLuna @BevJacksonAuth My guess is that older statutes wouldn't include "genderized" definitions of sex, but who knows.

[Tom Nichols @RadioFreeTom]

Good job everyone

[Jim Butler @SeattleJim]

@EKaht An interesting question at some point for plaintiff's counsel would be how many trans-identified males have you identified that would be impacted by this new law, if allowed to be implemented?

[Jim Butler @SeattleJim]

@EKaht Testimony could be brutal. State: Does your child's doctor know your child is AMAB (court will no doubt use cult language)
Parent: Yes
State: So no genital exam required, right?
Parent: Um, well....
State (going full Vincent "Vinny" Gambini):

[Jim Butler @SeattleJim]

@DrNWLuna @BevJacksonAuth This definition of 'sex" in Washington is strictly for purposes of the "WA Law Against Discrimination." While WLAD may indeed be a factor in the lawsuit, it wouldn't appear this absurd definition of sex applies to all WA State law.

[MJ Murphy @hothingsgirlsay]

Washington voters said YES to protecting girls’ sports.

Now TransFamilies, the Washington Education Association, and several parents, represented by the ACLU of Washington, Legal Voice, and Pacifica Law Group, are asking a judge to stop Initiative 638 before it takes effect on December 3.

They opposed the measure politically. Voters rejected their position. Now they want the courts to override the public.

This is not about bullying anyone. It is about whether girls are allowed to have a sports category that is actually female.

Bodies compete, not identities.

In this video, I break down who filed the lawsuit, the money and political power behind the opposition, the privacy claims, and why Washington should respect the voters and let this law take effect.

@CheriDiNovo Not a single, solitary person on planet Earth has ever changed sex and every single person is either male or female. Period. Full stop.
