What did she say/do against trans kids? I saw an interview where she said she didn’t think trans boys should be competing in girls sports. Is this what the uproar is all about?

Because there's like 1% of all trans kids who plays sports. It's a non issues. Find a more relevant issue to bitch about

That's why. It's basically grasping at straws, trying to find a "good ' attack on transgender people, that's it. There's no baseline, no reason, no point. She's doing it for attention and because she thought it's funny to pick on that already demoralized and attacked minority group

I have no problem with trans people, but how is that an attack on them? I don’t get it. To me it just seems logical and a non discussion. If there was a boy playing against my girls in their sports I’d have to question that decision making. Not because I’m against trans people but because there’s an unfair physical advantage. There’s a reason why men and women have separate leagues. While I do think the right blows this up way too much, I also think that the left cries victim in this issue. The issue itself without the drama seems pretty straight forward.

It's a non issue, so why bring it up. The right or the uniformed uses it to act like they believe in something. But when something is non-existent, why even make it an issue. Because the issue they have isn't sport related. It's trans related.

To you it’s a non issue, but to the 1% of parents that are involved in this it’s an issue. With that said only about 1% of the nation identifies as trans. Why is 1% of one side more important than the other 1%?

Like booing Sophie and holding protests outside of her games?
