These are real, living children, and they won't stop existing just because some people don't like it.
Sure winning is important, but at the high school level, it's pretty gross to say winning is more important than just being decent to a kid who wants to play sports. Or do you think these trans kids are putting themselves at great risk for harm (even murder) and derision by a a cruel society, just so they can do better in high school sports?
What do you tell the cisgender girls who lost the state championship to a transgender girl? Tough shit? Yeah, she has the body of a male athlete, but she's a decent kid, so get over it? What do you tell a cisgender girl who gets cut from a team and her sport because a transgender girl performed better?
Can you think of a sport where biological males aren't superior to biological females (okay, I'll give you equestrian and sailing)? How do you propose to make competition equitable? If you really want to make competition gender neutral, then have all sports gender neutral, right?
Sure transgenders are real, living children, and to say that those that don't share your position wish they'd stop existing is pure hyperbole.
Free Phogge!!!! And no, crimson doesn't refer to the Tide.
