    Well that’s obvious.

    The conservative concept of manliness isn’t threatened by the idea of women (women who transition to men are still women as far as a social conservative is concerned). In your imagination, even if such a thing exists (in reality, it does) men tend to dominate women in every area of life except being a good person caring mother.

    So the conservative news cycle is going to focus on the perceived threat of MTFs, where men confine to dominate women. It helps to reinforce the fragile ego of conservative men as protectors even as men who transition to women are murdered for being “traps” or whatever.

    In sum, the idea is transitioned men participating in men’s sports doesn’t have the fans emotional impact of dominating women, a conservative pastime before even baseball.

      Do your eyes turn brown from being so full of shit?

      The correct answer is historically we don’t have men’s leagues. A woman has always been welcome to compete in the regular nfl. They just can’t because they are to weak.

      And so we created leagues for women to give them the same opportunity at scholarships as men.

        Thats a case in point.

        If a woman, trans or otherwise, wants to participate in men’s sports, why not let them?

        Your answer is to protect them.

        And so there’s a WNBA where women get paid less, have a lower viewership rate, and are repeatedly told the sport pales in comparison to the NBA.

        But why protect them in the first place? If they want to play sports with men, why not let them, even if they’re “too weak”? Do you think women are stupid too, like they don’t know what they’re trying to achieve?

          They are welcome to as long as they are not using performance enhancing drugs like testosterone. The problem has always been when you have men competing against women. Not the otherway around. Women already can try out and compete if they are good enough in the nfl. But none of them are.
