That&#8217;s right they are against this order. Why? Because they do not want men (who gender identify as a woman) in their locker rooms and competing against them in women&#8217;s only sports.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 18pt;\">This is not an attack against those who feel that they are being discriminated against because they feel trapped in a man&#8217;s body. It is saying that women have the right to not have men in their restrooms. Most women would agree that once a man has been rendered a women by surgery then it would be fine at that point.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 18pt;\">And letting a man who gender identifies as a woman or who has undergone surgery to look like a woman play against biologically born women is just plain wrong! These former men are physically stronger and have more stamina than most women. How can they fairly compete when they have the upper-hand? They can not!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 18pt;\">Biden&#8217;s Executive Order is discrimination again biologically born women and that is a fact. This is not a well thought out piece of anti-discrimination thinking. It is neither logical nor fair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 18pt;\">I will agree that the LGBT community has been harassed and humiliated. This order is not moving us forward. In fact it just plainly smacks of Progressive politics. The fantasy land this creates is just unfair to both sides and this Executive Order needs to be withdrawn.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 18pt;\">There needs to be legislation that protects those who identify as a woman while at the same time being sensitive to the rights of biologically born women. And there is no way that a man who now either identifies as a woman or has been surgically transformed into one can fairly compete in physical sports on the same level playing field with biologically born women. Such is life and nothing can change that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 18pt;\">I will not even get into the idea of underage children and gender identification. That is one minefield I will not cross.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: georgia, palatino, serif; font-size: 18pt;\">Now I know some of you are going to think that I am anti-LGBT. That is totally untrue. What I am is for women not being treated as political pawns in a play to advance LGBT rights.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: comic sans ms, sans-serif; font-size: 18pt;\">That is my opinion- Jumpin Jersey Mike<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.musingsbymichael.com\/blog\/tag\/bidenerasedwomen\/\">#BidenErasedWomen<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.musingsbymichael.com\/blog\/tag\/lgbt\/\">#LGBT<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"gcwam6a65c6064a514\" ><script async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script>\n<a data-pin-do=\"embedBoard\" data-pin-board-width=\"150\" data-pin-scale-height=\"60\" data-pin-scale-width=\"800\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/mkendallpk\/stuff-for-sale\/\"><\/a>\n\n<\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">\r\n.gcwam6a65c6064a514 {\r\nmargin: 5px; padding: 0px;\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 1201px) {\r\n.gcwam6a65c6064a514 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 993px) and (max-width: 1200px) {\r\n.gcwam6a65c6064a514 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 769px) and (max-width: 992px) {\r\n.gcwam6a65c6064a514 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 768px) {\r\n.gcwam6a65c6064a514 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {\r\n.gcwam6a65c6064a514 {\r\ndisplay: block;\r\n}\r\n}\r\n<\/style>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well now we know that our new President is leaning way left towards the Progressive agenda.
