I'm not going to try to defend Republicans, because I disagree with them on basically everything.

But I'm not disagreeing about reality, I'm disagreeing about opinion.

Here is my opinion. If you have an advantage in a sport due to something genetically natural about you, and you went through puberty as the same gender as the sport your competing in. I'm fine with that.

If you have an advantage in a sport and went through puberty as a different gender than the class your competing in, I'm not ok with that.

There is no fact or no fact there. It's an opinion. One that I'm entitled to have. And one that you need to be able to hear, without the need to silence me or delete my comments. Because people should be allowed to have a different opinion then you.

We can argue about the merits of our opinion, but you can't say I'm not congruent with reality, or however else you want to try to downplay my opinion.
