Why not just call it a co-ed team so people don’t get all twisted? My daughter played on a boys team and no one cared. Why? Because they didn’t think she was a threat to boys when in fact she was better than most of them. But when you put a boy on a girls team people get all weird. There are many different factors that go into this topic. But few people will actually intellectually debate this.
So why not just call it a co-ed team and let them all play on the same team.

No one cares about a girl playing on a boys team because there is no safety issue and generally speaking a girl has to be pretty amazing if she is playing on a boys team on any reasonably high level team after about 13 years old. A mediocre travel level boy would walk right onto almost any ECNL girls team, simply based on size, speed and power.
A co-ed team would in practical terms just be a Boys team and this is so obvious that there is no debate worth having.
I am firmly against but at the same time do support them to be who they want to be. You?
this is not support. I bet you're also the type of person who says, "some of my best friends are ....." do you actually know any transgender children? I would be willing to be no based on your questions. Their life is difficult enough with a society that either doesn't understand them or is actively hostile towards them. If soccer brings a little bit of joy into a kids life, so be it. What difference is it to you? Reminds me of the HS male wrestlers who refuse to go against female wrestlers. Pathetic.

It’s called a debate ***hole and for good reason. I didn’t say I was right, just that I don’t support it. You’re that guy who just thinks only his or her opinion is right and that is all that matters.
Needs to be men, women, and co ed/trans teams/leagues. Sorry, it’s a safety issue. And to the person that said someone does support trans because they don’t support them playing bio males against females…the person you attacked was right. You’re the reason people can’t debate. People try to get thoughts out and people jump all over them. I knew EXACTLY what the OP meant. I’m fine with people being whatever orientation/gender they like. But in this case, do not support bio males on field with bio females. Safety- period

Transgenderism is pretending. I cant support a biological male playing sports against females. I feel badly for the confusion these people suffer through but it doesn’t change physical reality.

Yes, unfortunately that’s how most liberals are wired
No debate. Girls athletics should be reserved for biological females. The place for Trans athletes needs to be established. I don’t have the solution but it’s not with the later group.

You're in the wrong discussion. This is not an ism it's not a religious belief it's not up for debate they don't need your consent or approval to be who they are. The question is around transgender females playing sports with biological females. I'm in the same boat and support everyone's right to be themselves but when it comes to competitive sports if you were born a male and are playing against females it's an automatic advantage. Its against the competitive spirit of sports. Imagine Crystal Dunn trying to run with Daryl Dike.
