Excerpt: "Look, if sports really were about overcoming adversity, about community, and about supporting each other, about working together and becoming better people, then what argument is there against trans girls playing sports with other girls? Because if that's what sports were about, then this would be one of the best arguments for including and encouraging trans girls on girls teams. Trans girls need community with other girls, they're desperate for it, I would know. They need support, especially with overcoming adversity. In what way is a team learning to become better people by excluding such a marginalized girl from their team and throwing her to the wolves? Even if you're skeptical of my argument, go back and read the decision handed down by SCOTUS. Then read what Justice Sotomayor wrote. They all said the same things I'm saying here."
