HB2 and the NBA's boycott of Charlotte

Friends, since this HB2 matter came up, I have detected a very insincere, but deliberate effort to use transgender rights to undermine women's sports. Now, Melody Wood has written about the same thing. Give her a read. The bottom line is, people who go through puberty as boys have more muscle mass than people who go through puberty as girls. That gives them a natural advantage in most sports. If we allow M to F transgenders who went through puberty as boys to compete on women's teams, very quickly we will have no women's sports at all. As the parent of two women who enjoy and even excel at sports, this is not what I want to have happen.
