Language in the initiative claims that kids are already required to undergo verification of their “biological sex” before they can play sports. But KUOW spoke with medical professionals and a school sports official who said otherwise. Paperwork used by medical professionals in sports physicals also shows that the initiative would be a departure from current state requirements for athletic participation.
According to the initiative, students would have several options to confirm their sex: a visual genital exam, a lab test to determine their genetic makeup, or an analysis of testosterone levels in the blood. The genital exam, which a medical professional can conduct without touching the child, would likely be the most accessible option for most kids.
They are so afraid of a man using a women’s bathroom, that they will abuse as many children as possible.
What strikes me as curious is the fact that they somehow believe that a person would go through psychiatric evaluation, hormonal treatments, and face and genital surgeries just to be able to go into a women’s bathroom. Then they’ll tell you that it is not that, it is that they are afraid of men using it as a loophole to go into the women’s bathroom, and somehow they think the problem isn’t men.
more like they want to abuse children so much that they pretend to care about women’s safety.

The gop are going to sign up in droves to be this “medical professional”
total and complete insanity, fucking repulsive.
Republicans are obsessed with children’s genitals.
Go figure.
Uhhhhhhhhhhh
If you are so against transgender folks being transgender that you’re cool with a stranger confirming children’s gender by taking a peek at their genitals, you are a fucking monster of a human being.
a visual genital exam
…no.
Pedophiles and rapists control the US, so this is logical next step.
My first impression was that this bill must have been sponsored by Jon Lajoie, but no, he was not interested in kids genitals.
While the law itself is a significant overreach and such. The article is really blowing it out of proportion. Doctors check a kids genitals at their yearly checkup until puberty at least. So thisnis just a simple doc signing off on something they have already done in the past. There will be exceptions of kids who moved or have a new doctor since puberty or something. But they already have to get a medical release usually to play sports anyway. So they will have a new doctor who will have undoubtedly done a general physical anyway. The ones who this really effects is the poor. The ones who don’t have a regulat doctor. Who is going to be doing their medical release… I don’t know. But it should at least be a doctor I believe.
Not that doctor’s are garunteed safe or anything. But in most cases they were at least vetted by the parents and not some random schmuck showing up at games checking girls crotchs.The goddamn team doctor for the US Women’s Gymnastics Olympic team is one of the most prolific child sex abusers to use their position of trust to gain access. Highly respected, highly public, and doctor to some of the most famous and elite athletes in the world and he did it for decades. You think they’re going to throughly vet Dr. McFeely when Nowhere Middle School needs a crotch inspector and Bumfuck City, Red State has only one physician in the county?
This is for highschool sports. The state can’t regulate the club sports like you are referring to so easily (if at all). Their aren’t team doctors. The doctor should be the childs personal doctor chosen by the parents in this case.
This kind of comment is why there will never again be reconciliation. It’s not just leadership that’s a bunch of weirdos, it’s their supporters and defenders that find ways to excuse, justify, and normalize the weirdness with “well, technically it’s late teens getting genital inspections”. Hebephilia is still just as creepy as pedophilia and citizens excusing it is just as creepy as elected officials regulating genital confirmation inspections. You do realize this has nothing to do with personal health, it’s not an annual reproductive wellness, or STI prevention/treatment, or even “turn your head and cough” to make sure physical activity isn’t going to aggravate an injury. It’s the state saying “show someone your penis or vagina so they can make sure it’s a penis of vagina and report back to us”.
Go back and read the first two sentences of my original comment. You are confusing what you want me to be saying with what I am actually saying.
Read my final statement. I don’t particularly give a fuck “who” is doing it or their qualifications because the “why” is the problem. What kind of equipment is in someone’s underwear is not the concern of a school district, a nosy neighbor, a state, or a god. It’s the business of the person wearing the undies, the doctor they go to for health concerns about those parts, and the partner they engage in consensual relationships with. Even parents and caretakers don’t have a say in those parts, only the obligation to provide hygiene and medical treatment if the individual is unable to provide that themselves.
You really couldn’t be bothered to just go back and read. You just want so bad to yell at someone, you don’t even care if they are actually on your side. I guess the old saying is true. You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink. See ya if you make a new account.
“I looked at the genitals of 24 middle school girls and didn’t find any perverts. You’re welcome!”
To save women from having “men” theoretically sneaking into bathrooms to see their genitals, we’ve now mandated that all women must allow “medical professional men” to see their genitals.
… This is what conservatism does to your brain…
or an analysis of testosterone levels in the blood.
So as soon as a trans Person is in hormines for St least some time, they can still participate. The law is still complete discriminatory bullshit, but it is not a complete exclusion (even tho they would have liked if it would be that way)
Genital inspection day was supposed to be satire.
Conservatives are happy to look at children’s private parts.
And then they turn around and call US the pedophiles
That’s some bullshit
