Concerns over the "Equality Act"
“you can’t just proclaim yourself a female and be able to compete against women.”

This past May House democrats, led by rep David Cicilline (RI), introduced the Equality Act of 2019 (H.R. 5) to the full House for a vote where it passed by a margin of 236-173. No democrat voted against the bill, while only 8 Republicans voted for it. The bill (known in the Senate as s 788) has also been introduced to the US Senate where it has been referred to committee. The bill if passed would amend the Civil Rights Act to prohibit discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity in such areas as employment and public accommodations, among many others. This would not be the first go around for this proposal. Democrats have tried passing it for many years and rep Cicilline has introduced it now for approximately the last three times.


There are the usual pros & cons on this type of legislation. My focus here is only on one valid complaint. That involves female sports and I believe the great female tennis champion, feminist and gay rights activist Martina Navratilova said it best:

“you can’t just proclaim yourself a female and be able to compete against women.”

Of course, she stands alone now. There seem to be no LGBT leaders backing her up on this serious matter. That would violate progressive ideology, wouldn't it?

Perhaps a better source might come from the victims of such policies. Real victims! Not the hyperbolic "victims" that liberals use as a campaign slogan.

At a recent track competition in Georgia a transgender contestant easily beat all the female athletes. The mother of one of those girls wrote to the powerful House Judiciary Committee:

"To say that my daughter, as well as the other female athletes, were humiliated and had a sense of defeatism is an understatement. In the words of my daughter, "What's the point Mom, we can't win." Hearing this broke my heart, for my daughter and for all the female athletes, who train so hard, but no matter how hard they work and train they will never be able to beat a biological male...What are we doing to our girls by forcing them to race biological males?"

Don't expect an answer to that woman anytime soon.




For democrats to proclaim themselves as the party of women is outrageous. They only want to use women.

I say biological men competing as women is why this bill merits defeat!

"What's the point Mom, we can't win."

exactly.  they have no chance.

one can change their appearance, but not the gender.

and, if I had a quarter for every gender out there?   id have 50cents.

if a man "identifies as the queen of england do we let them wear the crown jewels?  of course not. they get mental health treatment.   a man that identifies as a woman or vise versa is just as crazy. placating that behavior? insane.

It should be referred to committee where it can be worked on and amended, though I doubt the senate will do anything.

It should pass as a stand alone with no poison pills or additions.
