Why WA voters rebuffed Dems on I-638, even in blue wave election
www.seattletimes.com
As a blue wave washed across the U.S., Washington voters passed an initiative that the state’s Democratic Party opposed. There are multiple ways to understand why.

Opponents say [Washington state] voters were persuaded at least partly because the initiative and its boosters exploited deep-seated prejudices and misunderstandings about transgender people to erode their rights.

    Your proof is one article about a political stunt by a guy who doesnt identify as trans making a statement to discredit a trans athlete that transitioned with hormones and surgery 20 years before the event?

            What is it with “you people” (to use your dividing inflammatory language) and your obsesion with children’s genitals?

            I’m not the one advocating for genital checks so kids can play football.

            Explain why ‘biological males’ are smashing all the women’s world records, as above, if “‘biological males’ are not better at sports than ‘biological women’”?

            They aren’t. Even a little. Trans women are middling in most sports, with very, very few exceptions either way depending on the sport and the woman. As evidenced in my actual scientific papers, instead of the feels that you seem to be stuck in.
