The Washington Interscholastic Activities Association estimates that of approximately 250,000 student athletes, between five and ten of them are transgender girls competing in sports. That is, at most, 0.004 percent of the student athlete population.
This November, voters will decide whether the state should subject all student athletes to genital exams to prevent the 0.004 percent from competing.
IL26-638, which qualified for the November ballot after Let's Go Washington gathered the required signatures, would prohibit students designated male at birth from competing in female-designated interscholastic sports. To enforce that prohibition, every student who wants to participate in a female-designated sport must provide a signed statement from their personal health care provider verifying their biological sex. That verification may come from a genetic test, a testosterone test, or - most likely - a genital exam.
Brian Heywood should get the fuck out of our state and go to Idaho where they'll let him walk over them while sucking his greedy, unwashed toes.
He can't. He's full-blown idiotic libertarian. Wants all of the benefits of living in a rich state with good infrastructure. Can't fathom paying for it, though.
