Are out of your ####, little pea-sized, mind. What is wrong with you? Do you have any sense? At all?
Do you have any idea how to run an office?
Every day you do something stupider than you did the day before.
And I think, "there's no possible way--
He can top that."
But what do you do?! You find a way, ######, to top it! You are professional idiot!

This doesn't even seem like a conservative vs liberal issue. There are plenty of liberal women who are madashell about this as well, and rightfully so. It seems anathema to everything the feminist movement is about.

This just potentially doesn't go far enough. If a they wakes up one morning and feels all manly, they should be able to play on the men's team. The converse should be true. Non-binary folks have feelings too. For track, basketball, golf, soccer and tennis this may be the catalyst to form sort of an internal transfer portal for those whose sexuality is as fluid as mercury.
I am so thankful that Biden has addressed one of the most pressing issues of our day. Day 3 hopefully will bring more time spent on this and similar issues even though there are a lot of balls up in the air. No justice. No piece.

This doesn't really have any teeth.

Let's break down what it actually says.
"very person should be treated with respect and dignity and should be able to live without fear, no matter who they are or whom they love. Children should be able to learn without worrying about whether they will be denied access to the restroom, the locker room, or school sports."
That's the part that's go everyone worked up. But it doesn't give a command or put a law in place; it says they SHOULD be...
This is a decision that will likely be left up to local school districts, state governments, and maybe Congress/Supreme Court. It should be left up to local governments.

No teeth yet, but it will not stop with the EO. Read Section 2. Earlier the EO references equal protection under the law. The kumbaya part of this is fine and moral. However, addressing this issue on Day 1 to me is very revealing. This will not be settled at the local level. It may be years down the road, but this will end up in the federal courts and ultimately the Supreme Court.

Ultimately, one day, it's coming to Congress or the SCOTUS.
But IMO, the president shouldn't have his hands in it. Again, more evidence why EOs are usually not good. I think folks are attributing too much authority to this one, though.

More ignorance...
What this order does is enable the 10s of thousands of federal employees around the country to create policies and practices that THEY feel reflect this order. What does that mean? It means they will be interpreting this BS with maximum read on progressivism.
Trickle down liberalism, coming to a town near you.
This is (an example of) exactly why I hate the left. There will be no unity. This kind of BS is what is tearing the country apart.
Another example, Bed Bath and Beyond and others ditching My Pillow.
Can you libs not understand the cancel culture will come for you too, it's just a matter of time.

All that order does is have the president say "This is the way it should be" when it comes to kids in schools. It doesn't lay out any law or mandate.
Local school districts set these policies. Again, something intelligent people already know.
As for My Pillow, that's the free market. If you're going to be an idiot who visits the wannabe dictator to discuss martial law--especially when you have no business being in that conversation--don't get mad when people want to stop buying your pillows.
That's the free market in the face to you "conservatives".
It's a pointless EO that has no teeth. Back to civics class with you.

fully support folks transitioning, identifying as gender neutral, gender queer, etc. And i firmly believe that folks are born the way they are born and I wouldn't want to 'penalize them' for that.
but I also knew plenty of girls that were bigger, stronger, faster than us at a young age and they opted UP and played with the boys at times (in rec league) because it was fair, challenging for them. But in school, they ultimately played on the girl's team and dominated. because they didn't have choice. Maybe their T levels were higher, but they didn't have anything to do with that. I mean, it just was.
But yet this feels ...backwards to me. I mean, we (women) acknowledge that there is a difference in girls/boys on the field. hence the separation.
What if it was all based on talent and ability, not gender. mean, making it all co-ed...if you can run this fast, jump this high, throw this hard...then you play here, otherwise, you play ---> over here.
Or may create 3rd co-ed group for whoever wants to play?
I honestly don't know the right answer and I don't have time to type out all my thoughts right now. that's it. I'm done rambling.

You know, if a 6' 2" anorexic who weighs 105 pounds looked at themselves in a mirror and thought "I'm fat", most of us would recognize that as mental illness. But not only are we supposed to ignore mental illness of gender confused people, we're told to condone and celebrate it. I for one will not. I think parents with girls in school sports should form their own leagues if the schools try to force this crap on them.

We’ve come to the point that we are deciding if boys should compete in girls sports. The fact that we even consider that says we have rotted as a society.

Exactly. Go look up the picture of the 2 “boys” crossing the finish line at the Connecticut girls track championship. The one on the left looks like a linebacker.

If I went to a physician and said I identify as a one armed man, I wonder if they would surgically remove my arm? It amazes me that there are surgeons out there that would mutilate someone based on what someone thinks they are.
