If you think insinuating that I’m a bigot will bring a life-long Democrat (now centrist, thanks to people like you) further left, you are incorrect. I support equal rights for ALL but I also recognize that their are biological differences between men and women, something that wasn’t considered “bigoted” ten minutes ago.
Don't go down the rabbit hole on this. My 17 year old son explained it to me best: basically it comes down to whether you believe gender is a social or biological construct. Those who use terms like "nonbinary" and "they" believe that no one is a completely a man or a woman, gay or straight and so therefore why should society try and pigeonhole them?
My son also reminded me that in ancient Greece and Rome there were "lady-men" who were men who dressed like women. Of course most of them were just gay dudes, but I digress.
Ultimately, when it comes to sports, gender IS biological. It is simply unfair to put what are men into women's sports and expect the women to be able to compete. And for some on the left to choose this as the hill they wish to die on explains everything you need to know about why Dems lose elections.
Again, my mother, a sage women without a college degree, smartest person I know, said it best, "when Democrats try to excuse bad behavior or a general lack of common sense, they get in trouble."

Notice that for some reason nobody talks about trans men in men's sports.
You protest too much. It hit a nerve.
It actually was bigoted 10 minutes ago.
It's "bigoted" to say there are "biological differences between men and women"?
Wow.
It's bigoted to say some women aren't women.
