9. No problem when it comes to adults

I have zero issue with leagues and colleges eliminating transgender participation in women's sports. The problem is that this has grown into an issue that affects kids in sports as early as 1st grade where some kids are trying to deal with gender identity and there really isn't a physical advantage.

Not sure why some Dems were so supportive of transgender athletes like Lia Thomas. There was never any serious discussion over it to really get a consensus. Unfortunately we missed an opportunity to cut off a rallying cry from bigots who want to hate everything LGBTQ.
