PinkNews: Should American superstar Coco Gauff be ostracized for saying she supports a ban on trans women in professional tennis, like many before her have? (Of course not, although if you're going to give her a pass for saying it "nicer" then I'm not sure that's cool, either.) This truly is a non-issue that we have handed to the right to weaponize. (Lee Atwater is applauding from his grave.) And if your response is: "Where are all these trans women dominating elite sports?" then that only bolsters my original argument: You're right -- there aren't any. So it should make it that much easier for us to stand down. (Hypotheticals are not hills to die on -- especially ones that aren't overwhelmingly supported by science.) Why it's so hard for us to acknowledge that we may have overreached just makes us look as obstinate as the doubling-down right. The only people who don't come out as winners in this concession scenario are those looking to hector people on social media. FWIW: Every player asked has the same "unforgiveable" take as one Martina Navratilova, who years ago co-founded the Women's Sports Policy Working Group to draw up guidelines that ALLOWED trans girls and women to compete in non-elite sports, an idea that has since been dashed because everyone was too busy ripping her a new asshole, thus leading to these needless across-the-board bans.
