Florida Governor Ron DeSantis speaks during the welcome segment of the Conservative Political Action Conference in Orlando, Fla., on February 26, 2021.Florida on Tuesday became the latest and largest U.S. state to ban transgender girls and women from participating in female sports at schools, part of a campaign in statehouses nationwide this year assailed as discriminatory by equal rights activists.
Supporters of the sports bills say transgender female athletes have an unfair advantage, having been designated male at birth but having since transitioned. Florida’s law defines an athlete’s sex as that stated on official documents at birth. Trump, his Republican predecessor, did not officially recognize Pride Month during his four years in office.
The Republican governor of North Dakota and the Democratic governor of Kansas have vetoed similar bills that passed their statehouses.Arkansas passed one banning certain types of gender-affirming healthcare treatment to transgender youth, after overriding the Republican governor’s veto.
Once in a while Republicans do good thing
It is because transgenger “girls” are neither transgender (it is biologically impossible to transpose genders) nor girls (they are boys/men with gender dysphoria). Keep men away from my daughters’ sports.
“BuT mY fReEdOmS” losers are awfully quiet.
Allowing biological males who 'identify' as female to compete with biological females is morally appaling, misogynistic and harmful to females.
...because this was THE most pressing issue in FL today. bigots
sad :(
