'BLOWS MY MIND': Riley_Gaines_ sounds off on Brittney Griner, Megan Rapinoe advocating for 'male inclusion in women’s sports.'
latest star athlete to support transgender participation in sports. The Phoenix Mercury center called it"a crime honestly to separate someone for any reason." Megan Rapinoe was among the current and former athletes who signed a letter to voice their opposition to the Protection of Girls and Women in Sports Act.
"So, hearing them advocate for male inclusion in women’s sports in women’s spaces, like locker rooms, it’s just disingenuous. It’s, to me, again knowing these women are done playing for on the verge or on the verge of being done playing, they have nothing to lose. They would rather be kind, and inclusive and virtue signal but in reality it’s not inclusive to allow men into our sports. It’s exclusive. It’s exclusive to the very female athletes who Title IX was passed to protect.
"And I want to touch on the misconception you mentioned about, you know, something that I’ve seen time and time again traveling state to state like I’m doing right now – both at the federal and state level," she said."We saw at the federal level last week when the U.S. House of Representatives voted on this and not one Democrat voted in favor of protecting women and girls.
The proposed amendment provides that any transgender athlete denied or limited the opportunity to participate in a sport that is consistent with their gender identity must be"substantially related to the achievement of an important educational objective" and"minimize harms to students."
