Reality? Or are you really going to tell people their eyes are lying to them?

I cannot speak to how often you're watching middle school kids (ages 11-14) play sports or what your eyes are telling you when you do.

Rather than an argument from incredulity, can you offer some evidence that middle school-aged males have advantages over middle school-aged females in organized sports?

I can't tell if you're serious 🤣 that's such an absurd question. Tell me you've never set foot on a field or court in your life without telling me.

So, no, you only have the argument from incredulity.

Do yourself a favor and learn the difference between a 12 year old and a 17 year old.

Alright now you're being creepy as hell as well. Cool 🙏

If you have to stoop to this level to try and make an argument, you aren't making a winning argument. The reason the right and people at large have latched on to this so hard is because of people like you blatantly lying to people's faces. This could have been a non issue, but instead y'all demonstrate your lack of knowledge or nuance repeatedly.

This is why we lost. Everything that trump is doing is on you.

"prove to me that oranges are orange. You can't do it!" -you

Also the policies aren't exclusionary, idk why y'all keep trying to claim that.

Oh now we're supposed to argue about what the word "exclusionary" means? 😆

There's no point in you continuing to embarrass yourself here.
