Journalist Frankie de la Cretaz on #Skermetti, the #SJSU women's volleyball team, and #transgender athletes:
"One of the ways the anti-trans sports push has been so effective has been by framing “fairness” around what is perceived to be fair to cis athletes, rather than by what is fair for the most marginalized athletes in the room: trans women and girls."
An essential reframing that puts #trans folks as people first, and only then as people who want to play sports.
Some really excellent critiques of #journalism, particularly comparing the #NYTimes and #ESPN in their coverage of the furor around a San Jose State volleyball player (who may or may not be trans, but who is definitely a woman).

Judge denies request to rule SJSU volleyball player ineligible | #ESPN
"The volleyball player has not spoken about her identity, and San Jose State has not commented on her identity due to federal privacy laws. ESPN is not naming the player."
The player in question is in her third year with the team. Somehow nobody complained until recently.
NOTE: SJSU lost to Colorado State; congratulations to them.

I can see safety being an issue, the safety of the transgender players from the bigotry and hatred of others. Since there's zero evidence to back up their claims of "potential" injury, if the bigots want to forfeit games, let them.

#MountainWest #volleyball #forfeit #crisis heads toward uncertain #postseason for #SanJoseState
As #SJSU nears the #tournament, a new #report says #political #pressure caused #Wyoming's #forfeit, despite a split #player vote.
“We have #played against this #athlete for two #seasons, and our #studentathletes felt #safe,” #Wyoming #AthleticDirector #TomBurman wrote via #email. “Our #studentathletes do not support #forfeiting two #matches.”
#SJSU should also revoke her scholarship. Give it to someone who would support her teammates.
Who is #BrookeSlusser, the #SJSU #volleyball #player trying to #ban #transgender #women from #College #sports?
Slusser tried to make a #case that her #teammate poses a #safety #risk to other #players and is #unfairly taking a #scholarship from a #cisgender #woman.

"A #coordinated #nationwide #attack: What the #forfeitures against #SJSU #volleyball mean for #womenssports.
What is framed as an issue of “#fairness in #sports” is more an #insidious #assault on #civilrights, say many #LGBTQ #individuals and their #allies.

I’ve long held that a VMT or miles tax would slow the adoption of EV. Here’s this poll from Mineta, though, showing majority support for it if it’s a “green” VMT tax! #electriccars #climatechange #SJSU
"A San José State University professor serving as a liaison for students demonstrating against the Israel-Hamas war was placed on a 60-day administrative leave amid an investigation into misconduct, according to a suspension letter.
"'I believe that my temporary suspension is part of an academic freedom suppression campaign against me,” she said. 'I have been an outspoken critic of the genocide in Gaza as well as an advocate for faculty rights as a California Faculty Assn. union member and leader.'"
