Wasn't it someone calling her a transwoman?

She supported trans rights.

While she does not support surgical intervention for minors, Andrews does believe in socially affirming the professed gender identity of young children before transitioning them into a medical protocol around puberty that could include hormone blockers and cross-sex hormones.

I think most people agree that irreversible cosmetic (aka not medically necessary) surgeries shouldn't be done on children underage.

Is anyone actually saying they should? So that's a moot point.

As for her recent comment on sports.

“So, I want you to hear me loud and clear. I don’t support [transgender women] playing women’s sports. And I don’t support and haven’t ever performed gender surgery for minors.”

She does say "women". Not girls.

She's not saying children should be banned from playing sports.

And as for adult women , trans or cis , playing on men's teams, ...this is a complex topic with no simple response.

So I disagree with giving a blanket statement. But maybe she hasn't thought about it much or looked into it more.

Quite a lot of gender divided sports are because historically , women were excluded. So they started their own. Or because men were afraid a woman would beat them. (Oh the indignity!) Not because there are biological differences that make them too different to compete.

Like golf. Archery, billiards, chess, and probably a ton more.

I'm not saying we give her a free pass. I'm saying she's not "anti trans" just because she doesn't endorse every complex issue relating to trans people.

We need to keep watch and see how she proceeds with policies and trans rights.

I realize that there is a lot of anti trans rhetoric right now. And it's not just talk. It's leading to insane bathroom laws, and banning kids in sports. Requiring genital inspections.

It's dangerous. Harmful.

But she's not a Republican obsessed with trans women/girls.

Her perspective likely comes from a place of knowledge about human bodies. And likely a lack of knowledge about changes in bodies as a result of hormone transitioning. Because there still isn't much research on this.
