Another great move by the Texas Governor. Men should not compete against women.

I believe I speak for the vast majority of human beings alive today, and indeed, all those who have ever lived when I say, "How in the Hell is this insanity even a thing?".

Texans have not lost their minds yet. Anyone who does not like this ruling should move to California.

> birth gender
you mean their gender?

Thank you, Texas. Where is the rest of America 🇺🇸?

Leave it to a red state to pass common sense laws.

It feels like we're living in the twilite zone

So sick Sodom and Gomorrah, history repeating again.

'forces', they don't 'force' anyone, they can choose to compete or no. Texas simply don't allow men to compete in woman's sport. Your choice of word says a lot

That's awesome Governor Abbott. By the way, can we send you some more empty busses to use as you see fit?

Nobody is "scared" of the alphabet people.

all you need to do is make every one run a 5, bench 500 pounds, do a 10 minuet arm hang, take there height and measure the PSI of a punch then group people by equivalent force. All any one asks for is fair play. You can do that or you can make a Trans League.
