The survey was commissioned by the left-leaning news outlet Politico and shows support across the political spectrum for banning biological males posing as females from girls’ athletics.
Neonnettle “Former President Donald Trump railed against transgender athletes in female sports in his CPAC speech a few weeks ago,” Politico reports.”Other prominent voices on the right have joined in, calling it an example of political correctness having a real-world impact.
“Our latest POLITICO/Morning Consult poll shows broad support for the GOP position, extending across gender, age and, to a lesser degree, party.
“Overall, 53% of registered voters support banning transgender athletes from competing in women’s sports, versus a third who oppose such a ban.” One of the most surprising takeaways from the poll was that more millennials support the move than do baby boomers, and fewer millennials oppose it than do baby boomers.
Numerous states have started considering legislation to protect girls from having to compete against biological males in sports, and legislation on similar issues.
As mentioned by Politico, Trump shredded Joe Biden and the Democrats during his CPAC speech over the issue.

That this bill was posed in the first place is a kick in the guts for all women (and men too) who ever fought for equality, and for all people with any sense of morality and fairness.
Only the corrupt and/or insane would support such a bill. In a sport such as running or team sports such as rugby, the bill is unfair because men have more muscle than women (not sure how this applies to men who take feminising hormones; does the muscle mass remain?). But in a sport such as boxing, where you can smash your opponent’s head in as described in the case above, it’s doubly outrageous.
Perhaps those who wish to change sex should have their own sports’ category where they can compete fairly.

That’s what I think, too. A separate transgender league that will attract virtually no fans.

Good comment, Leonie! Right on!!!

There is one physical activity in which women exceed men: cold water endurance swimming. This is because (sorry, ladies) women have a thick layer of subcutaneous fat to protect their vital organs. Therefore the Hae nyo pearl divers of Korea and the ama of Japan are women. https://popsop.com/2016/10/woman-divers-profession-of-the-future/

For every Muslim in this beautiful Nation, there is the possbility of another Orlando or San Bernardino massacre. Fewer Muslims mean fewer massacres. I am all for that.

Biden and Kamala Harris are dangerous to females. The commie monsters HATE women and girls.
John E Billings says
I am concerned that “transgenderism” (a false idea from the outset) will raise girls’ expectations of what they can do physically. Look, I was in the Army (1983-’87) and the physial training standards for females were *much* easier than for us males. Women didn’t even have to do chin-ups in jump school (Ft. Benning)! So why did men have to do all that additional PT? Why the double standard? My wife is from Russia, and she says that women never train with men there. Instead, they have a women’s auxiliary force. Why not try that here? Damned feminazis!
BareNakedIslam says
They should create a transgender sports league so they can compete against each other.
sweetolbob says
What about the “transgender” weirdos that identify as some kind of homosexual animal ? Or maybe Napoleon . do you think there are enough of them to form a league ?
I’ll bet that once it gets started, there will be skads of them. Just like the “transgender” athletes, stupid sexual ideas are catching.
Before you know it, some highly degreed professor will be offering a for credit college course. Cant wait for his live examples. HEH !
BareNakedIslam says
Bob, I don’t care what they do as long as they don’t ruin sports for women.
Leonie Z. Pipe says
Agree totally. I just suggested the same before reading your comment.
Peter35 says
Dead right, Bonni; actually, the fact that any politicians or other lunatics could even consider allowing biological men to compete with women brands them–in my opinion–as misguided halfwits.

Some females, I guess, have never participated in sports with males. I did as a kid, but the older you get, you just can’t compete. Probably by the start of high school. Girls can risk serious injury doing so, especially contact sports. No matter what hormones the males may take, because there are physical differences between the two sexes on muscle/fat ratio, even skeletal differences.
I wonder if Biden had a daughter, if he would be pushing this.
I like anonymity says
He does have a daughter, Ashley Biden. Also, Naomi, but she died as an infant.
BareNakedIslam says
I wonder why we never see hyde nor hair of the daughter?
