I know. Still ironic as hell. I don't remember him getting after boosters offering players 'things'.
A person can be a socialist in a capitalist society, but a person is not allowed to be a capitalist in a socialist society.

A group of 16 female college athletes have launched a lawsuit against the National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) for allowing trans athletes to compete against them and being forced to use a female locker room with transgender swimmer Lia Thomas, who still has “full male genitalia.”

Good for them, hope they win.

Not sure what gender Lia identifies with. Here are some of the options.
The latest CBSN Originals documentary, “Gender | The Space Between,” takes a deep dive into the complexities of gender identity and gender expression. While transgender stories have become more visible in the media, there are many identities and terms outside of the two most culturally accepted genders — man and woman — that fall under the trans umbrella. And in many social circles, the vocabulary related to gender identity is unfamiliar or inaccessible.
Gender identity is an extremely personal part of who we are, and how we perceive and express ourselves in the world. It is a separate issue entirely from sex, our biological makeup; or sexual orientation, who we are attracted to. There are dozens of dynamic and evolving terms related to how people identify. While this glossary cannot cover every possible identity a person might have, it provides definitions for some of the most common vocabulary necessary to understand the layered world of gender.
Below is a guide to some of the topics and terms discussed in “Gender: The Space Between,” as defined by the Human Rights Campaign, GLAAD, The Trevor Project, and the National Center for Transgender Equality.
Gender Identity Definitions
Agender: A term for people whose gender identity and expression does not align with man, woman, or any other gender. A similar term used by some is gender-neutral.

Brin Solomon, a graduate student at NYU, identifies as agender.
CBS NEWS
Androgynous: Identifying and/or presenting as neither distinguishably masculine nor feminine.
Bigender: Someone whose gender identity encompasses both man and woman. Some may feel that one side or the other is stronger, but both sides are present.
Binary: The gender binary is a system of viewing gender as consisting solely of two identities and sexes, man and woman or male and female.
Cisgender: A term used to describe someone whose gender identity aligns with the sex assigned to them at birth.
Dead name: How some transgender people refer to their given name at birth.
Gender dysphoria: Clinically defined as significant and durational distress caused when a person’s assigned birth gender is not the same as the one with which they identify.
Gender expression: The external appearance of a person’s gender identity, usually expressed through behavior, clothing, haircut or voice, and which may or may not conform to socially defined masculine or feminine behaviors and characteristics.
Gender fluid: A person who does not identify with a single fixed gender, and expresses a fluid or unfixed gender identity. One’s expression of identity is likely to shift and change depending on context.
Gender identity: A person’s innermost concept of self as man, woman, a blend of both, or neither – how individuals perceive themselves and what they call themselves. Gender identity can be the same or different from one’s sex assigned at birth.
Gender non-conforming: A broad term referring to people who do not behave in a way that conforms to the traditional expectations of their gender, or whose gender expression does not fit neatly into a category.
Gender questioning: A person who may be processing, questioning, or exploring how they want to express their gender identity.
Genderqueer: A term for people who reject notions of static categories of gender and embrace a fluidity of gender identity and often, though not always, sexual orientation. People who identify as genderqueer may see themselves as being both male and female, neither male nor female or as falling completely outside these categories.

Misgender: Referring to or addressing someone using words and pronouns that do not correctly reflect the gender with which they identify.
Non-binary: Any gender that falls outside of the binary system of male/female or man/woman.
Passing: A term used by transgender people which means that they are perceived by others as the gender with which they self-identify.
Queer: An umbrella term people often use to express fluid identities and orientations.
Sex: The classification of a person as male or female at birth. Infants are assigned a sex, usually based on the appearance of their external anatomy.
Transgender: An umbrella term for people whose gender identity and/or expression is different from cultural and social expectations based on the sex they were assigned at birth.

Transitioning: The social, legal, and/or medical process a person may go through to live outwardly as the gender with which they identify, rather than the gender they were assigned at birth. Transitioning can include some or all of the following: telling loved ones and co-workers, using a different name and pronouns, dressing differently, changing one’s name and/or sex on legal documents, hormone therapy, and possibly one or more types of surgery.
Transsexual person: A generational term for people whose gender identity is different from their assigned sex at birth, and seek to transition from male to female or female to male. This term is no longer preferred by many people, as it is often seen as overly clinical, and was associated with psychological disorders in the past.
Two-spirit: A term that refers to historical and current First Nations people whose individual spirits were a blend of male and female. This term has been reclaimed by some in Native American LGBT communities to honor their heritage and provide an alternative to the Western labels of gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender.

Katlander, thank you for posting that educational piece. The social subject of gender is not simple.
My solution is handicapping. Handicapping is done in many sports and it is a possible middle of the road solution. For everyone that suggests a separate classification, there are not enough people to make that feasible. I read there were only 10 students in Kansas in 2022 that identified as Trans.
Concerning the subject of mixing girls with trans people that have a penis (gender dysphoria), I go to the New York women's prison where 2 inmates got pregnant from the trans prisoner. Mother Nature took over. That should not be allowed.
As a Conservative Republican I wish my party would stay away from any gutter politics on this subject.

pretty simple this guy is just pretending to be a girl to win or cause a stir. He's a POS imo. Create an open division of biological Men or those identifying as something else. Women's biological women only. None that have started the trans to male or female. Catering way too much to thisas it is.Kralicek wrote: ↑March 15th, 2024, 1:15 pmGood for them, hope they win.

Gender is a big social and political issue caused by a very tiny minority of people.
I don't know why gender confused folks have to make a big public scene about it. Just quietly live your life out of the public eye.
And, no, men should not be allowed to compete is women's sports and women shouldn't have to locker room with men.
And, yes, Republicans need to let this gender issue fade from their political agenda.

For example, in Kansas, the State High School Activities Association recorded 11 transgender athletes during the 2022-23 school year, and three were trans girls. Before Florida’s law took effect in 2021, its High School Athletic Association had cleared 13 transgender students to play in the previous eight years.
A tremendous amount of debate for a very small minority.
