Time and time again whenever a ban like this is put into place instead of creating a "women only space" serves as yet another facet to harass and demean women who are just trying to exist and, in this case, pursue sports. There are already many examples of these types of legislation targeting cis (biologically female) women and this dangerous legislation will only serve to create more of them. Linked below are some examples. I urge the Virginia Department of Health to seriously consider the impact these kinds of dangerous legislation have.
