The absurdity of woke Democrats in Congress has breached any realm of reason on any number of issues. Tuesday was all about the battle of transgenders in women’s sports with lofty, fear-mongering suggestions that challenge any rational thinker.
In a charged House Oversight Subcommittee on Health hearing Tuesday, Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) ignited a firestorm with her assertion that excluding biological men from women’s sports could lead to invasive genitalia checks on young females.
Ocasio-Cortez, known as a significant member of the progressive “Squad,” argued, “We are talking about opening up all women and girls to genital examinations when they are underage, potentially just because someone can point to someone and say, I don’t think you are a girl.”
Ocasio-Cortez contextualized her remarks within the broader landscape of women’s rights in a post-Dobbs America, expressing concerns about states criminalizing abortion access and gathering data on women’s menstrual cycles.
She questioned the rationale behind such proposals, emphasizing their impact on privacy and biology for all women, stating, “And we’re saying this in an environment of a post-Dobbs America, where states are criminalizing access to abortion and want nothing more than data on women to figure out when, who’s getting a menstrual cycle, who doesn’t have one, and we’re supposed to believe this is going to make us better and safer?”
“I think not, and, per usual, I don’t believe we’re sitting here on a panel of men that has actually thought about the biology and privacy consequences of all women, trans or cisgendered,” she added.
The discussion follows a previous controversy in Ohio where a bill initially required “internal and external” exams to confirm student-athletes’ gender. Ohio Senate Republicans replaced this with a requirement for a birth certificate presentation when an athlete’s gender is questioned.

Reflecting on the original proposal, State Senate President Matt Huffman remarked, “I’m not sure why that’s in the bill, it’s unnecessary.” He further added, “All of these tests can be done with a simple DNA swab.”
Ocasio-Cortez’s remarks brought huge backlash on social media for thier sheer ridiculousness.
One person made the incredibly valid point, “You don’t get to consent for girls to have males in their spaces. #Consent is not transferrable.”
Pointing out the obvious that a pre-season physical, which most schools require, would fix any drummed up issue.
Conservative Momma sums the whole thing up brilliantly!
Also in attendance was NCAA swimming legend Riley Gaines, a vocal advocate for restricting women’s sports to biological women, gave testimony against transgenders in women’s sports.
Her testimony triggered a tense exchange between Gaines and Representative Summer Lee (D-Pa.), another member of the “Squad” erupted. Lee had labeled the testimonies, including Gaines’, which sought to restrict women’s sports to biological women, as “transphobic,” another absurd statement.
Gaines responded assertively, stating, “There’s a place for everybody to play sports in this country,” and adding, “But unsafe, unfair and discriminatory practices must stop.”
“Inclusion cannot be prioritized over safety and fairness.” Addressing Lee directly, Gaines retorted, “And ranking member Lee, if my testimony makes me ‘transphobic,’ then I believe your opening monologue makes you a misogynist,” Gaines said.
At some point this nonsense has to stop, especially since we are only talking about less than 1% of the population who, through an insane woke agenda, seems to be breeding a war of women against women in favor of biological men invading women’s spaces as a woman.
It is pure insanity!
