The Republican-led legislature passed a bill on Monday that bans transgender women from participating in all-women’s sports teams on Nassau County properties. County Executive Bruce Blakeman, whose executive order to the same effect got reversed in court, is expected to sign it.
The law prohibits transgender women and girls from playing on all-female sports teams in dozens of county facilities, including pools, basketball courts and soccer fields. It does not apply to all-male teams or co-ed teams.
LGBTQ activists and parents of trans athletes rallied against the bill in Mineola ahead of the vote. They carried signs saying, “Protect trans youth” and “Trans girls are girls.” MORE AT Nassau County legislators ban trans women from all-women county sports (wshu.org)
No I'm sorry. Trans girls are not girls. Maybe it's time for folks to start looking at the actual sexual mutilation that is performed and what is reconstructed in its place. But fair warning. It's hard to take.
