In 2024, the NCAA had 554,000 athletes. Even if all of these athletes were women, they would represent only about 0.15% of the U.S. population.

but sure the new conservatism is about solving REAL problem. Man in woman sprots!
Only 0.0057% of the US population is murdered annually. Guess that makes murder a pretty insignificant problem.

It’s now a crime akin to murder to be a trans athlete wanting to compete in your sport?

How many of that 0.15% were forced to compete against biological males against their wishes? How many of the situations where that was occurring have since been corrected?

Which leaves the question, in niche cases where the participants, their supporters and the league are down with it, why does the federal government need to step in to prevent it?

BINGO! BINGO! BINGOI!

The decline of common sense is evident when individuals equate murder with biological men competing in women's sports.

No I'm pointing out that even murder can be trivialized using the low percentage number approach.

The once traditional conservative party that advocated for limited government no longer exists. Currently, the focus appears to be driven by retribution rather than policy principles.

Not allowing biological males to compete against women in women's sports was done in retribution for what?

Insisting on it by executive order even in a handful of cases where the participants, their supporters and the league are OK with it is seen by some as retribution for "woke."

Do you mean in general or this specific administration? I agree this isn’t really something for the federal government to focus on but I also get the reasons why this admin is constantly trying to play up this issue.

If I understood retribution, I'd call myself MAGA. You have to ask them what retribution they want, after all they elected someone who call himself “ I am your retribution”.

Really?

A quick AI search:​


The Trump administration has taken several steps aimed at reducing the size and scope of the federal government, particularly during its second term. Here’s a breakdown of key actions:


Executive Orders and Bureaucratic Cuts
  • Executive Order to Reduce Bureaucracy: Signed in February 2025, this order targeted unnecessary government entities and advisory committees for elimination or downsizing.
  • Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE): Created to identify and eliminate waste, fraud, and inefficiency across federal agencies.
  • Termination of Programs: The administration shut down the Federal Executive Institute and paused foreign aid to certain NGOs and international contractors to ensure alignment with American values.

Workforce Reduction
  • ederal Workforce Shrinkage: Between September 2024 and March 2025, the number of federal civilian employees dropped by over 23,000.
  • Deferred Resignation Program: Set to remove hundreds of thousands more employees by October 2025.
  • Hiring Freeze and RIF Notices: Hiring slowed dramatically, and many employees received reduction-in-force or termination notices.

Deregulation Initiatives
  • 10-to-1 Deregulation Rule: For every new regulation introduced, ten existing ones had to be eliminated.
  • Streamlining Rulemaking: Agencies were required to justify new rules with clear benefits, aiming to reduce regulatory burden.

Budget and Spending Cuts
  • $4.4 Trillion in Proposed Cuts: The administration’s budget aimed to reduce spending and balance the budget by 2035.
  • Nondefense Discretionary Cuts: Proposed a 5% cut to nondefense programs and a 2% annual reduction through 2030.
  • Defense Prioritization: Maintained strong defense funding while cutting elsewhere.

These efforts reflect a broader philosophy of returning power to states and local communities, reducing federal overreach, and promoting efficiency. If you’d like, I can dive deeper into any of these areas or explore how these changes compare to previous administrations.

All that means is that while 26% female students in collage are getting sexually assaulted, todays republican party worry more about 10 biological male winning swimming competition. Wrong priority !
Call me crazy. But dont you think it is possible to worry about both? Last I checked, liberals didnt seem to care much when biological males pretending to be women were sexually assaulting actual women in the bathrooms. In fact, liberals were protecting the rapists.

More often than kids dying of COVID19, but that didnt stop the liberals from forcing them to wear masks, not go to school, and get a risky vaccine. What is your point?

Do you have any real numbers? As I remember, about 1500 children died of Covid.

Between 2020 - 2022, 187 children between the ages of 1-17 died from COVID 19 in the United States. So statically, considering there are over 72.8 million children under the the age of 18, there was only a 0.00025% chance of a child dying from COVID19.

Compared to transgender women and sexual assault, the are 515,200 transgender women (men who think they are women) in the United States and there has been 21 reported sexual assaults by them. Which would mean that if a child found themselves alone in the bathroom with one of these individuals, the risk of them being sexually assaulted is 0.004%

Therefore, it is safer for a child to be around covid than being alone in the bathroom with a man who he believes is a woman.

My numbers include 2023, so they are larger, but you still haven't told us how many women were assaulted by a trans in a women's bathroom.
