In other countries kids are learning about Quantum physics and here we can’t decide whether you are a girl or a boy. 😢

[meemeedoodle]

Stop comparing being gay with being black. Its dumb.

[corettaevans]

Save our children. They are the next generation.

I am not a fan of Trump but I like him putting these restrictions on that community in terms of the athletes and transgender…

[XYZ-qirb]

Enough is Enough! I'm so sick of them!

[cookingwithkekeplusmukbang]

[GMCTIM]

THE FACT THIS IS EVEN A ISSUE TELLS HOW FAR OUR COUNTRY HAS FALLEN !

[russellwalker]

Being a trans does not give you the right to be a woman. Go wear whatever dress you want, for all we care, but competing is sports, beauty pageants, etc, is not only crazy but very disrespectful to all women. Men and Women rights were already given, there is no need for any other rights after that.

I’m so tired of “cisgender” label. 🤦🏽‍♀️ I’m a woman. Born a woman. Not a boob feeder, not a bleeder, not a womb haver or any of this other mess! I’m a woman. Trans want acceptance but want to push biological women out of the label of “woman”🙄

[JustBree]

I voted against this right here. Do whatever you want on your own time. Stay out of our schools

[kaylafree]

I’m sick of trans weirdos. And stop comparing being black to being gay because it’s extremely disrespectful

[meggrotte]

He's not making an example out of anyone he's protecting women and children

[LizzieWilliams-qrie]

She never answered what rights we have that she doesn't

[JohnEdmond-il]

He she could not answer the question he' she is talking on emotion not facts

[dw]

Why would someone so unintelligent be invited in this discussion?

[Kid_Charlemagne]

Gay Trump voter here. Our rights are not at risk in the least bit. He didn't try to revoke gay/trans rights during his first term, and this term wont be any different. The only thing he wants to do is ban hormones and puberty blockers for children and minors, which is simply common sense. Stop screaming about how your rights are being taken away. When you're too used to special treatment, of course equal treatment will seem unfair to you. Get over yourselves

[Swirlworld]

"Least protected" ? Sir you are a grown black man. You can protect yourself.

[kahlua]

I don’t get the controversy, there are 2 sexes, men shouldn’t be competing as women against women. What we did wrong was entertain theses ideas at all. Now it’s like we have to deal with all these people’s “reality”. Guess what, you can feel like a man trapped in a woman’s body, or not, I don’t care. I am not required and refuse to deal with your life situation.

As a woman i feel disrespected because i feel like trans women think it’s so easy being a woman just by wearing our clothes or shoes n make up it’s disgusting and they just confused asf
