Except it is never women athletes complaining. It is these stupid politicians using that argument like it isn’t absolutely laughable. They only care about women when they can use them for their own talking points.
I do take deep offense to referring to the loss of rights as culture war stuff. Fuck, maybe it is to them? If one side of the argument boils down to rights to your own body and the other side boils down to how it might make other people feel and how it can be unfair then there are much bigger issues with one of the sides.
One costs lives and the other is a fucking made up possible consequence. And sports really is the only “logical reason” they can cling to that isn’t absolutely clearly bigoted af.
