Disagree. Anyone should be allowed to compete in the "men's" league. If you're good enough, you can play. It's only the women's division that needs special protection because the whole reason it exists as a separate division is because we recognize that females have inherent athletic disadvantages compared to males.

" Spartz's tenure has been marked by high staff turnover. Congressional watchdog Legistorm measured her turnover in 2021 at three and half times the average of offices of House members, the highest turnover for a non-retiring member. In May 2022, Politico reported on a toxic environment within her office, with Spartz's temper quickly jumping from tepid to boiling, and reported that "aides who have left after a couple of months did so because the work environment became untenable." Examples of the office environment included Spartz ordering staff to record her direction to staff and later denying the previously expressed instructions, despite the recordings. One former aide said, "the common theme: Staffers do their job, and then Victoria comes in saying that they have no idea what they’re doing, that they are 'morons,' calling them 'idiots.'" Spartz responded that her working style is "not for everyone" and that her critics "need to 'toughen up'"

The research he points to never asks "why" a child identifies as trans; the reason it stops halfway through the query is that it actually reveals their problems overwhelmingly come prior to the "revelation", and are usually the actual cause of it. TA's cut off the query where it is convenient to their aims, claiming transphobia against anyone who digs deeper. Ask where the trans feeling comes and you will find that those kids who try suicide are running from sexual abuse, bullying or fear of accepting their own homosexuality, and our answer is to help them hide in a play act of the other sex instead of helping them come to grips with who they really are.

Tell me you were not an athlete without telling me you were not an athlete. This congressman should just inhibit himself if he doesn't know how hard it is to train for varsity. Any marginal gain can be the difference between winning and losing. Being a male is not only marginal but a big advantage.

Most people are tired of this debate that shouldn't even be a debate. A very articulate man who is totally out of touch and pandering to who in the minority ? They are trying to normalize this insanity and most people are tired of it. Shut up and fix this country for the American people.
That guy is talking about one group of girls, how about the next group, will they be OK with men playing with them? I do not think he is telling the truth, also this is fairly new, what will it be like 10 years from now. Girls will give up before they start.
The argument the congressman makes is ludicrous! He's suggesting there's no need to protect women's sports because he "knows of no transwomen athlete IN HIS DISTRICT that wants to play women's basketball!" His district isn't the issue! The purpose of ALL rules is to address situations that may be happening now or in the future throughout all districts! Surely he's heard of the swimmer Lia Thomas? His argument is like saying there is no need for rules/laws against "theft" because he's not aware of any thefts in his district? It's an absolutely ridiculous point!
With all due respect, Caitlin Clark would get seriously injured, and be lucky to score any points, if she played against the 1st ranked NCAA men's college team, and to compare her to Pistol Pete is ignorantly absurd. Pistol scored all his points in 3 years, without a 3 point line or shot clock.
This desperation for political virtue signaling is nauseating. The congressman can't really be this idiotic, but he's hoping to glom onto "liberal" voters. Many of these politicians believe that the extremely vocal, aggressive "activists" actually represent the general population, which is actually ridiculous. Also, there have been many suicides with trans kids who then tried to reverse their irreversible transition, and realized they couldn't.
Women's basketball teams do often practice against guys, but that's not a game, it's controlled. And if you look at the guys selected, they aren't monsters, they're about the same size. A knew a D2 college basketball player, 7 ft tall and built. He was a decent basketball player among men, played a couple seasons with lower level teams in Europe, not making the minimum WNBA salary. Even if you put him on hormone blockers, he's still destroying any woman in the WNBA. As for his classmate, Evelyn Ashford's record, WR at 10.79, later eclipsed for Flo-Jo at 10.49, doesn't compare to the US high school boys record of 9.89. As for being considerate of trans people, that's fine, but why does it have to come at the cost of being considerate of females, biological women. Certainly, as many of them are being left out, put at risk and made to feel unsafe as the trans kids. As for suicide, I doubt that not playing on the girls team will cause it, the causes are much deeper than that.
How are the female athletes being left out. They're allowed to participate.put at risk? You do realize the risk of injuries in sports is present with or without trans people playing. If you feel unsafe around a trans person you are transphobic. that's like saying I feel unsafe around blk people.
Caitlin Clark could not compete one on one with any male college basketball player. The problem is limited because there aren't that many sick men who want to play in the women's leagues.
Glenn Frederick Ivey, Maryland's 4th congressional district. All you in Maryland's 4th district, vote this guy out!!! The fact that he has a career is beyond belief.
I’m a democrat but agree with the republicans on this one. My sister was a lesbian, I’m all for gay rights, except THIS one. Why is common sense not common sense, no amount of operations or injections will change someone’s agenda on the INside.
Why is the debate always around a biological trans man competing in woman's sport. I have not seen one example where a biological trans woman is trying to get into a mens team. I wonder why...
What a putz! He never answers the question of SHOULD men be allowed to compete in women's sports. He just deflects with the observation that he doesn't know of any examples, so why bother with the legislation?
He is completely wrong in what he says. Biological men are way faster and stronger in track and field and in basketball! And he needs to stop saying that we aren’t asking for this who the hell is Riley Gaines and the 16 people that are suing the NCAA we are asking for this!!!
Just have a “ trans winner” ribbon/ trophy. Meaning yes you won however you’re still a man and that would protect women’s scholarships and trophies 🤷♀️
I'm not saying this is necessarily a bad idea (and it's a FAR better idea than trans-women playing with women), but in order to do this correctly, you'd need one league for trans-women and a separate league for trans-men.
"The last point I want to make." What points did he make? The audacity talking about we should also consider transgender kids when speaking about biological females. Why not consider what women are talking about in connection to women's issues? Why do women have to share topics that concern them with people that is of no concern to the topic? Biological men are not biological women. This guy is twisted.
That man is the example of "Well, it's not happening to me, so therefore it's not an issue." Sigh. It's so frustrating and disappointing.

Most people are tired of this debate that shouldn't even be a debate. A very articulate man who is totally out of touch and pandering to who in the minority ? They are trying to normalize this insanity and most people are tired of it. Shut up and fix this country for the American people.
No way this guy truly believes that he’s spouting
That guy is talking about one group of girls, how about the next group, will they be OK with men playing with them? I do not think he is telling the truth, also this is fairly new, what will it be like 10 years from now. Girls will give up before they start.
@@JimAebel and he’s really trying to speak for his WHOLE district. You know there’s people in his town saying “STFU”
Interesting... but it looks like he loves it anyway. He seems like he’s enjoying acting like there’s no problem, he’s a hack m.
The argument the congressman makes is ludicrous! He's suggesting there's no need to protect women's sports because he "knows of no transwomen athlete IN HIS DISTRICT that wants to play women's basketball!" His district isn't the issue! The purpose of ALL rules is to address situations that may be happening now or in the future throughout all districts! Surely he's heard of the swimmer Lia Thomas? His argument is like saying there is no need for rules/laws against "theft" because he's not aware of any thefts in his district? It's an absolutely ridiculous point!
With all due respect, Caitlin Clark would get seriously injured, and be lucky to score any points, if she played against the 1st ranked NCAA men's college team, and to compare her to Pistol Pete is ignorantly absurd. Pistol scored all his points in 3 years, without a 3 point line or shot clock.
Let's be real, she would lose to a very skilled HIGH SCHOOL boy.
There's male and female it's not that difficult.
Chromosomes in each of us tells a different story..
@@songbird8819What???? No they don’t XX XY THATS IT 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
when my gov. gets quoted by a hack like this guy it makes me shrink. shame on gov Cox's
This should not even be a subject to debate! Holy shit whats wrong with people!
Its called womens sport, not trans sports.
Victoria listened to him patiently. He's just interrupting and going on circles.
My money is on her
Victoria Spartz is my new favorite politician.
Victoria Spartz Is A Strong And Smart Woman!!
Not a real woman
We need more immigrants like Victoria Spartz!
This desperation for political virtue signaling is nauseating. The congressman can't really be this idiotic, but he's hoping to glom onto "liberal" voters. Many of these politicians believe that the extremely vocal, aggressive "activists" actually represent the general population, which is actually ridiculous. Also, there have been many suicides with trans kids who then tried to reverse their irreversible transition, and realized they couldn't.
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You Rep. Victoria Spartz for fighting for US women and all of USA citizens !!!
Did he just say that in public. Women don't need or want protection in his district? Really? Deny deny deny.... we see you!
Women's basketball teams do often practice against guys, but that's not a game, it's controlled. And if you look at the guys selected, they aren't monsters, they're about the same size. A knew a D2 college basketball player, 7 ft tall and built. He was a decent basketball player among men, played a couple seasons with lower level teams in Europe, not making the minimum WNBA salary. Even if you put him on hormone blockers, he's still destroying any woman in the WNBA.
As for his classmate, Evelyn Ashford's record, WR at 10.79, later eclipsed for Flo-Jo at 10.49, doesn't compare to the US high school boys record of 9.89.
As for being considerate of trans people, that's fine, but why does it have to come at the cost of being considerate of females, biological women. Certainly, as many of them are being left out, put at risk and made to feel unsafe as the trans kids. As for suicide, I doubt that not playing on the girls team will cause it, the causes are much deeper than that.
How are the female athletes being left out. They're allowed to participate.put at risk? You do realize the risk of injuries in sports is present with or without trans people playing. If you feel unsafe around a trans person you are transphobic. that's like saying I feel unsafe around blk people.
Where has this guy been to think that the majority of female athletes don't mind?
It's not about equity or equality it's about having the upper hand and no one can say hey you're cheating.
Caitlin Clark could not compete one on one with any male college basketball player. The problem is limited because there aren't that many sick men who want to play in the women's leagues.
Glenn is either ignorant or, worst case scenario, completely anti-woman. In either case, he should not be in a decision-making role . . .
Glenn Frederick Ivey, Maryland's 4th congressional district. All you in Maryland's 4th district, vote this guy out!!! The fact that he has a career is beyond belief.
I’m a democrat but agree with the republicans on this one. My sister was a lesbian, I’m all for gay rights, except THIS one. Why is common sense not common sense, no amount of operations or injections will change someone’s agenda on the INside.
This issue is causing some people to regress in their attitudes towards gay rights. The LGBs need to separate themselves from the Ts.
Agreed -- @@johnhoran9840
Ivey made a horrible straw man argument. Go ahead and flood college women basketball with men. We shall see who is the leading scorer.
Maryland sure can pick em
Affirmative Action/DEI elected
That woman wouldn’t have beat the male player’s record had she been playing against a men’s team. Period
So, because it's not happening within his circle, it's not happening. Real objective 😂
It's dangerous ok i don't want my daughter playing against any men
Stats on trans suicide or suicidal ideation do not necessarily prove being excluded from sports are causation of those stats.
Why is the debate always around a biological trans man competing in woman's sport. I have not seen one example where a biological trans woman is trying to get into a mens team. I wonder why...
Unbelievable that we are having to justify the position of letting girls have their own teams.
I cannot believe we pay our government legislators for this waste of time,
What a putz! He never answers the question of SHOULD men be allowed to compete in women's sports. He just deflects with the observation that he doesn't know of any examples, so why bother with the legislation?
Glenn Ivy thins that there is only one sport basketball, give me a brake.
If it does not matter. Why have separate mens and women’s league.
Rep Ivey: “Doesn’t concern my district, my sports or my kids.”
Then why are you speaking about it? Terrible showing.
He will fight against something even if he knows it is right.
Spartz for the win 🎉🎉
Spartz is a fart bomb
Victoria Spartz is worth her weight in gold. She is so awesome. She could sweep the floor with any democrat any time, anywhere, on any subject.
He is completely wrong in what he says. Biological men are way faster and stronger in track and field and in basketball! And he needs to stop saying that we aren’t asking for this who the hell is Riley Gaines and the 16 people that are suing the NCAA we are asking for this!!!
I would say Glen Ivey is out of the loop and has no clue what the issue is and I think he is speaking out of turn.
This man is comparing practice and actual match. Many athletes unleash all of their capabilities when there is victory at stake.
Give trans athletes their own leagues to feel empowered to compete.
You can't there's not enough of them in the whole of the United States to make one team.
They won't, there have been events organized for only trans athletes. They didn't show up.
Just have a “ trans winner” ribbon/ trophy. Meaning yes you won however you’re still a man and that would protect women’s scholarships and trophies 🤷♀️
Rather than waste their time, skip athletics, & book them for a weekly psychiatrist appointment.
I'm not saying this is necessarily a bad idea (and it's a FAR better idea than trans-women playing with women), but in order to do this correctly, you'd need one league for trans-women and a separate league for trans-men.
Victoria Spartz received a significant sum from Russian oligarchs and is now delaying aid to Ukraine.
Pete Maravich didn't have a 3-point line 😑
If he did, no one would get anywhere near his point tally.
He also wasn't playing against females. She wouldn't be close to any college scoring record if men were guarding her.
"The last point I want to make." What points did he make? The audacity talking about we should also consider transgender kids when speaking about biological females. Why not consider what women are talking about in connection to women's issues? Why do women have to share topics that concern them with people that is of no concern to the topic? Biological men are not biological women. This guy is twisted.
Ivey, ... bring up the "Suicide" narative is a cope out. ...give me a break,
Why do the Republicans bother yielding to Dems when they don’t return the favor?
