I too agree that Title IX is dumb and women's sports shouldn't get anywhere near the priority of real sports.
i also agree that pot should be legal

No I was just curious about you posting about it as it hasn’t gotten national attention.

It’s the kind of story that if run in The Seattle Times they would disable the comments feature.

The same kind of story that non-local news doesn’t really have an appetite to cover because controversial.

I think the real question here is should it have more national attention?

Which is it? You have a personal connection or you have an opinion?
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Correct.

5 consecutive forfeits in D1 college sports isn’t exactly an everyday thing.

Honestly? Just trying to figure out what you're trying to do. You've been posting the updates to that story for weeks without comment. Your agenda or opinion or purpose or whatever has not been clear.

Meh, the only people who care about college volleyball are the players and their parents. I think this story is getting exactly as much national attention as it deserves. We have actual, real problems in this country.

Easy there Fox News viewer who can only digest a story when told how to feel about it.

I posted a news story objectively in the appropriate thread for this forum. The story evolved so I continued to post the updates. I am eager to hear respectful thoughts and expressions in regards to the news reports that I posted.

I don’t believe that males should play in female sports leagues.

Yes. Please correct me if I’m wrong but most “male” leagues are actually defined as “open” leagues, meaning any person good enough to qualify can participate. There has been at least one female player who was drafted to the NBA though I don’t think she ever played in an official game.
Still, female leagues were created for a reason.

Is it possible for conservatives to discuss this stuff without gleefully misgendering trans people?

It undermines your point when you're so intentionally hateful.
