Women should never compete with trans! Women protect ur sports!

[aguy]

Can biology be used instead of fantasy?

[GML_.]

Even if it affects one woman laws should be put in place. The laws are also good so that the athlete knows where they can compete and how.

[lesleyhenderson]

“ I feel bad for the women “- how dare a man have the audacity to fob this off.

[dh.]

That lawyer is a pathetic excuse for a man.

[Aquabob]

How can that lawyer honestly believe that the current rules are fair….??? Texas is awesome…..!

[LoveCoffee]

Where did you find this clueless so called lawyer? Couldn't even get the stat right. Good job mum for swatting him down gooood.

[staceonthecase]

You are not assigned a gender, you are born male or female. I am proud to be a Texan and proud of our governor

[corey]

It is a complete disgrace that this is happening. Women do not deserve this.

[PeanutsNPickles]

As a woman, we cannot let this continue

[Darthdesmond]

God the suit and tie was so annoying. Doesn't actually address the issue. Just waffles about how it hurts people.

[lesliemassey-orcv]

So glad to see people taking a stand!! You can identify as whatever you like.. but the fact remains you are the gender you were born with! 🙄

[sashaarr]

These men should be be ashamed of themselves but they are not. They couldn’t win whatever sport they were playing in so now they’re pretending to be women. Makes me sick at my stomach. As a Veteran who was sexually assaulted in the military and having to live with that shame every day of my life now this. Every day I’m hearing the man that sexually assaulted me laughing at me and it just makes me SICK TO MY STOMACH TO SEE THESE YOUNG GIRLS AND YOUNG WOMEN BEING MISTREATED LIKE THIS. OUR NATION HAS TURNED THEIR BACKS ON US YET AGAIN

[tank]

How come we never hear about women transvestites competing against male athletes? What’s up with that?

[erin]

the voice that should be loudest are the athletes competing. Then after that...

[pamlewis]

Nothing like creating a problem that doesn't exist.

[elrodjenkinslv]

Ban trans From sports. Unless you make them their own league.

[benjaminfranklinkivettiv]

The smug laywer is part of the problem😢

[Reccodog]

That adjunct professor needed to hear what that woman said. Unfortunately, he clearly wasn't willing to listen. Need to pray for deceived folks like himself.

[benjaminfranklin]

Americans have heard all these arguments and support for single-sex categories has increased.
