Do you wanna go ahead and mansplain to all of us why we should give one single f*ck about this thing that is so important to all the men? This thing that is named in such a way that LOOKS like it is meant to protect us (while at the same time you'd vote to dismantle Title IX and reproductive rights)? Probably you know something we don't. 🙄

Just saying.

Men, at their core, are protectors

I have a daughter. When she gets older and starts playing sports, there should not be (biological) boys in the girls locker rooms or competing with/against her. This is a pretty simple concept.

Exactly

if they dismantle title IX, we won't have a locker room.

I never mentioned anything about wanting to dismantle title IX. Honestly, I didn't even realize that was a topic of discussion. After a cursury look, I don't really see why that would be on the table.

it's basically a separate but equal which allowed little girls to become athletes. every human deserves a chance, no?

we have to be careful. it's all slippery slope.

As usual, things have been made more complicated than they need to be. Title IX is over 50 years old. The issue of biological males competing in women's sports is much more recent. Whatever has allowed this to take place should be changed. Nothing more, nothing less.

At least that's where I stand.

I like that you did the research on Title IX. Well done! 🫂

lol. men, at their core, are also weirdly obsessed with penises. idk, but i don't think the topic deserves so much attention. neither I, nor my daughters, have EVER had this problem. it just doesn't register to me as a legitimate threat.

Then...ignore it and people talking about it?

I hope you don't mind that I chimed in. I mean, it was a bunch of boys agreeing that women aren't GETTING it. I generally like your notes and appreciate you as a NOSTR celeb, but one of my fears of this protocol is that it's kinda echo-chamber-y. Me, as someone with an actual vagina, I'm not afraid of this particular thing. It seems like another one of those bills that's labeled to make what it's doing seem all sweet and innocent, like the "Protect Marriage" ballot issues in California in the late 90s. And the "I love my wife" bumper stickers. But if you're open to other opinions, I'd like to keep following you and maybe sometimes (hopefully) respectfully disagree. But not very often, don't worry. Just when it feels appropriate for someone to pipe up and tell you that there's ladies here now. 😘

Have a nice night.

You're good and I appreciate your opinion!
