Absolutely adore how calm and kind this debate was, even when very silly things were said.
This is probably the most civil debate on such a contentious topic I've seen in years. Bravo to all parties.
Kudos to Serena for trying to have an honest conversation instead of shouting insults and shutdowns.
Did I just watch someone have their entire world view collapse in on itself over the course of like 40 minutes because they had to actually confront it? This was kind of cathartic.
I absolutely applaud this person for recognizing they are wrong and doing something trans activist have never done before - CRITICALLY THINK. But I hope everyone in the comments doesn't act like the left/dems and punish this person for "getting here too late". Just be grateful they listened and hope that more do. ❤❤
At this point, democrats ONLY support this because republicans don’t support it.
Nobody is telling boys not to play in sports. They are telling boys not to play in girls sports.
YOUR inability to self accept is not the rest of society’s problem. I don’t understand how this is so hard to understand it’s actually infuriating
You don't get to be something just because you "feel like it" or wish it to be so.
It hurts a trans woman to compete with people they don’t identify with, but it’s completely okay to force women to compete with people they dont identify with. The absolute lack of self awareness, awareness of other’s feelings and the narcissism is astounding.
You know what, huge W for Serena for seeing the evidence, analyzing it, and prioritizing it over feelings. And huge respect to Blair for explaining it with so much grace and patience. This is what a good debate looks like!
Meanwhile, back in California, Newsom IS DEFINITELY supporting BULLYING against the female athletes by making them compete against males! THAT is bullying.
NOBODY has so much open, undisguised contempt for women and girls, as the men who choose to ID as "transwomen"...
It's always so breathtaking how much these men don't care about the feelings of women and girls, it's like they are completely blind to us as human beings. They make claims about fairness, dignity, safety etc for themselves that they simply lack awareness or ability to apply that logic to us. They think because they can repeat feminist slogans that means they care!
“It hurts to accept yourself and then come back and compete with people you don’t identify with”. BUT YOU WANT THE WOMEN TO HAVE TO PLAY WITH YOU, A PERSON THEY DONT IDENTIFY WITH
It’s is extremely offensive for a male to claim they are female. It’s absurd, dangerous, entitled and narcissistic. It has to stop.
Create your own league, or gender category. You don't get to tell women they have to compete with you because of your feelz
You know what, Serena was a good sport. I appreciate her being willing to have an honest conversation. I know it wasn’t easy for her to be vulnerable about certain truths that are emotionally painful. Good game, everyone!
Just three dudes discussing whether women have the right to protect ourselves. Good times.
This felt more like an intervention at the end, in the best way. That's incredible. Blaire should be a therapist. She could help individual trans people. This felt like a very human conversation.
