Doctors and nurses are voicing their objections. I-638 would require EVERY girl who wants to participate in sports to go through biological sex verification. That means expensive, invasive, and utterly gross examinations. Protect our kids and let them play. Vote NO on I-638

rangemedia.coMeasure to require "biological sex" verification for all WA girls’ sports athletes on November ballotIf passed, the hedgefund-millionaire-backed ballot measure would enact one of the nation’s strictest examination requirements for girls’ athletics.

keep seeing press and politicians using "biological" ie. "biological man" "biological woman" except there's NO SUCH THING as "biological sex" stop repeating it it validates trolls "men" vs "women" made from same parts, same cells 1 in 1500 births are PHYSICALLY non-binary it's gene-expression

I'm glad I played sports before the current "burn the witches" craziness, but feel bad for girls in sports now. I watched a girls basketball tournament a few years ago and all the hair and makeup seemed an effort to prove how "girly" they are, and not LGBTQIA. I felt bad for the kids and society.

As someone later diagnosed with PCOS, and who was bigger and stronger than the average girl, I'm sure I would have been subjected to this "prove you're girly enough" nightmare. I probably would have dropped out of sports. 

Here's what the Science says about trans women in sports. Bigots don't believe in science they are no different from antivaxxers and climate change denialists bsky.app/profile/feen...

"Trans women are different to cisgender men and feminising gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) results in rapid and dramatic changes in the body. Some of these changes factor into physical performance."

Seems like that would be unconstitutional since you’re requiring testing for only one gender.

An attack on trans girls AND: An attack on intersex kids who have any chromosomal/anatomical/hormone anomalies AND: An attack on poorer kids who will need invasive, cheaper exams than rich kids to play at ALL AND: A barrier for girls but not for boys Creeps love hurting trans kids and girls' sports

They absolutely love the double duty this is doing. Extra rules in sports boxing in trans people AND boxing in girls and women? They break out the cigars. Bathroom bans hurting trans people AND making girls and women afraid go without makeup and have short hair? Inject that into their veins.

Doesn't it seem more than a little pervy that anyone wants pass laws to subject pre-teen & teen girls to genital exams? Expose all young female athletes to an exam to "police" less than 0.002% of athletes. Government overreach much?

time to privatize teaching the kids how to defend themselves from predators aikido? jujitsu? kung fu? I don't sport much

Nope. Time to teach boys and men not to rape. You can’t tell victims they should have been more prepared. Any assault is the fault of the perpetrator, NOT their victims.

The boys and men need to learn to process their emotions. THEY were taught to externalize their feelings and lash out instead of process their feelings into wisdom. THAT is also culture's fault. We can't change behaviors without training EMOTIONS. Nobody seems to understand this.

Stop this. Every sport has its own governing body, and its own decision about what gender means or whether it even matters for competition. This is just perverts and prudes wanting to stop kids having fun. Disgusting.

Not really the point here, but wouldn't it be illegal to have this only for girls' sports, and they should have the exact same "testing" for boys' sports?

Try to tell liberals and other right-wingers that this isn't really about trans women playing sports and they'll look at you like you're crazy. How do you explain to someone so brainwashed by propaganda that this is how fascists have always operated- go after the most vulnerable first, then the rest

fascist won't go after people other than trans athletes? Do you have an inside track on American fascism?

This is only for GIRLS? The people pushing this are more likely to be found/land on a sex offender list than any one else.

There is nothing in the initiative that requires genital inspections in sports physicals. Your fear-mongering is going to scare girls away from sports if this passes. Vote YES on I-638 to restore fairness to girls' sports in Washington State. diagwashington.substack.com/p/vote-yes-o...

diagwashington.substack.comVote YES on I-638Thousands of female athletes have had to compete against males in Washington State. It’s time to restore fairness to girls’ sports in Washington.

And no testing of boys? Of course not 🙄 We all know this is just a sick way to get girls out of sports and protect men from getting turned on by beautiful trans human beings.

Nursing and medical orgs should be even clearer: If you join the crotch police, you are going to get your license revoked. Any supposed medical professional engaging in this abuse will need to be drummed out of the industry.

It is once again. Not trans people pushing vague language laws to deputize random strangers to transvestigate your genitals to join sports or bathrooms. Weird right? Maybe it isn’t trans people that are the issue Seeing as they are not the ones making us do this It’s just cis pervs claiming fear

Why are there not ads running all over the state like, "They are trying to make it legal to fondle little girl's genitals. Say No to child rape, Vote NO on I-638"?

You’d think folks by now would know that rightwingers are perverts who protect child molesters, and this legislation delivers young girls directly to them for the state-sponsored groping of breast buds and finger penetration of vaginas.

We all know that this is not only going to hurt trans women, but CIS women too. All this is body policing, and spreading bigotry and general crappiness. We know that these people don't care about women's issues, or their health or bodies except as a means of control. Seriously, fuck these guys !

Obviously people SHOULD vote against this because of trans rights, but for people who don't care about that, I cannot stress enough: Two ways to test: expensive lab tests with long wait times, and genital inspections of children. Do you really think they are going to pay for lab tests?

With all the millions in donations, the Democratic Party has received. There is still no real mutual,aid organization funded strictly by the Democratic Party. The people they claim to be the reasoning for them entering politics, are struggling & they still ask us for money. But we can’t ask them?🤧

Ciara says get me outta Kansas🥲@ciarasdiaryy.bsky.social

ko-fi.com/ciara93086 Im currently raising💰 for EMERGENCY🚨RELOCATION im currently being cyber stalked by my ex abuser and have been financially cut off from my black conservative family. I have a job opportunity in LA. I need help ending my lease early (550$) + extra emergency travel funds (500$)

A more interesting measure would be for everyone who supports I-638 to publicly share their browser history, just to make sure there are no pervs wanting in on that…

Ok... Imagine a future where a "women's sports" team is literally a group of men with penises and testicles pretending to be women... This whole thing is a stupid trend that needs to go away, and with it this BS. A man can pretend to be a woman, but can never be a woman. And vice versa. FACT.

Could you do me a favor and clarify for me, before I pop off, are you claiming that transgenderism is a "trend," and that transgender women are "pretending"? Because thats what it REALLY reads like.

I’m sure the authors of this fine legislation have considered all the intersex conditions that challenge their kindergarten primer definitions of sex. 🙄

Need to run this ad in WA bsky.app/profile/erin...

Erin Reed@erininthemorning.com

Democratic-aligned group Progress Action Fund has released a PRO-trans ad, attacking Republicans for being creepy in bathrooms. It will run in Texas and Ohio, and is expected to reach millions. You have to see the ad itself. Subscribe to support our journalism.

so these people want to serve up little girls to pervert child molesters to "protect" sports. shouldn't it be the other way around? protect CHILDREN not sports. I'm utterly sickened. any dr willing to do this should be absolutely ashamed and jailed for child molesting plain and simple.

This is an attempt to destroy sports for women. This is part of Project 2025. Please, please, please vote NO! Protect girls from predators the right way!

While I get your point, and that’s certainly another goal, they are not doing this to get at cis women, they are doing it to get at trans women.

I strongly disagree! They want to make girls not want to get into sports at all, and are only checking genitals of girls! They are going after all girls.

A Mandate for Leadership, ch 11 It is an attack on ALL women’s sports programs. And just for the record, saying ALL women inherently includes trans women. Trans women ARE women.

Okay but it's intended to hurt trans women and it disproportionately hurts trans women, and saying that it only hurts all women equally would be not only incorrect but downplaying the actual harm caused to trans women

They want to destroy any & all sources of female empowerment, and sports is definitely one of them. Why are so many fields dominated by women not considered “professional” roles anymore? These are steps to subjugate women, roll back rights and access.

This new women's health initiative that Canteloupe Calicula and his rent-a-bride introduced is how they will start testing drinking water for birth control chemicals and making it illegal to have Plan B "for women's health". Just watch. With the old burned scrotum onboard, what could go wrong.

I have no doubt whatsoever that every recision of our rights will be cloaked in “our safety”. They’re not smart. They are predictable. #VoteThemAllOut

Just add an amendment that every person about to be examined gets to stick a speculum up the arse of the 'inspector' What is good for the goose is good for the gander and if anybody needs a rectal exam, everybody needs a rectal exam. Watch the 'Alpha' MAGAettes fight each other to be 1st in line!
