“It is a complicated issue. It is truly a complicated issue, with a wide range of views, truly a wide range of views,” Jean-Pierre said. “There is no ‘yes or no’ answer to this, it is complicated. There is a rule that the Department of Education [DOE] has put forward, and we’re going to let that process move forward, and again, we want to make sure that while we establish guardrails with this rule, we also prevent discrimination, as well, against transgender kids. But again, a complicated issue with a wide range of views, and we respect that.”

“Absolutely no reason for the Biden admin to do this,” New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wrote. “It is indefensible and embarrassing. The admin can still walk this back, and they should. It’s a disgrace.”

“Honestly, this move by Biden to push a rule on trans kids in sports is not only a backwards betrayal, it [forces] us to have to spend our time dealing with god d*** sports instead of criminal bans on our healthcare,” Alejandra Caraballo, a civil rights attorney and LGBTQ+ advocate, wrote. “He could have just done nothing. This is legitimizing transphobia.”

The mOsT PrOgReSsIvE Administration in History™ funny-clown-hammer “A complicated issue with a wide range of views, and we respect that” funny-clown-hammer Fuck off out of here with that “centrist” nonsense. There’s nothing complicated about it, and it’s not an issue unless you want to turn it into one and want to appeal to people’s emotions like Republicans are doing. It was only a matter of time before they’d start throwing trans people under the bus. I guess with the coming elections it’s as good a time as ever.

    Are you fuck, you’re a goddamn transphobe and an arrogant moron with literally no understanding of biology.

    You’ve looked at some anecdotal data you don’t understand and call it an open and shut case when it’s pure dunning kruger effect.

    Gender essentialist? Pal, I 'm a gender abolitionist. I think gender is a fundamentally sexist social construct, and the way forward is by eliminating it entirely.

    Lmao so why is the “gender abolitionist” reinforcing and defending gender as a means to control and gatekeep others?

    Gtfo out clown, have a good word with yourself and stop calling yourself a gender abolitionist.

    You couldn’t even be arsed to do the homework to realise your transphobic position is LITERALLY wrong.

    Genuinely stop, as an actual gender abolitionist seeing you make such a mockery of my movement is irritating. I’m ashamed to have you identify as one and i don’t want people associating gender abolition with backwards ignorant bigots like yourself.

        Assumptions? You’re literally being a transphobe and literally not being a gender abolitionist. There’s nothing arrogant about it.

        You’re just a fucking idiot.

        And I’m antagonistic because some moronic bigot is being a transphobe and claiming to be a gender abolitionist despite literally doing the opposite.
