CHEYENNE, Wyoming (LifeSiteNews) — The state of Wyoming has enacted a bill that will ban biologically male students from female sports.
On Friday, March 17, Governor Mark Gordon of Wyoming allowed a bill to become law, albeit without his signature, banning male public school athletes in grades 7-12 “from competing on a team designated for students of the female sex” in any interscholastic sport. This new legislation, which will come into effect on July 1, makes Wyoming the 19th state in the United States to enact a law regarding men in women’s sports.
However, despite choosing not to veto the bill, Gordon said in a letter to Wyoming’s Secretary of State, Chuck Gray, that he believed the new law to be discriminatory, with “victims on both sides.”
Gordon said that while he was willing to let the bill pass into law without vetoing it in order to avoid “these very divisive debates,” he said that he chose not to sign it because it would be “difficult” for him to “sign legislation into law that knowingly will cost the State and taxpayers money” in the form of lawsuits.
The bill has caused controversy among those who support society’s indoctrination of gender ideology, with activists speaking out against the new legislation. Sara Burlingame, executive director of Wyoming Equality, the largest “LGBTQIA+ advocacy” organization in the state, said in a comment to the Wyoming Tribune Eagle that a lawsuit was allegedly in the making.
With Drag Queens now targeting babies in a quest to normalize their degeneracy, it's time for our lawmakers to ensure children in society are legally protected from this grooming.
SIGN: Drag Shows for children must be outlawed

"Burlesque for Babies" is the latest depraved iteration of the Drag Queen Story Hours that have targeted children across the western world.
This involves woke parents taking their babies and toddlers to watch grown men, invariably wearing high-heels, make-up and little else, dance inappropriately for attention, gratification, money and grooming.
If you don't believe us, just watch what this pro-LGBT commentator has to say (WARNING - graphic content):
This is nothing less than grooming - an attempt by perverted men to sexualize children with erotic dancing.
SIGN & SHARE: Lawmakers must end the grooming of children by Drag Queens
How else can we describe half-naked men “twerking” in front of babies, if not by calling it "grooming"?
Aside from the degenerate men wanting to sexually perform for children, the other major culprits are of course the parents who bring their children to see them, tacitly endorsing the bondage outfits and overt perversion to allow these drag queens fulfill their sadomasochistic dreams with children.
Any adult who wants to be naked, or close to naked, in front of children is an immediate threat to young people, which is why lawmakers must do everything to combat this degeneracy before it's normalized.
Normalization is, of course, the goal of the LGBTQ movement, and that's why we have to push back now.
SIGN: "Burlesque for Babies" and Drag shows for kids must be outlawed

However, while some people and organizations have attacked the bill as “discriminatory,” even though it protects women from being discriminated against in their own sports, the American Principles Project (APP), a pro-family organization that fights against gender ideology, applauded the new law in a post on Twitter.
“This weekend Wyoming became the 19th state to pass legislation protecting a fair playing field for female athletes,” the organization tweeted on March 20.

The pro-family organization also shared a statement from Terry Schilling, the president of the APP, who praised the decision and criticized Gordon and others’ portrayal of the bill as “draconian” or “discriminatory.”
“It’s not at all ‘draconian’ or ‘discriminatory’ to limit girls’ athletics to girls,” Schilling said. “In fact, it’s simple common sense that polling shows most Americans agree with.”
“It’s unfortunate some of our leaders have been duped into believing such a policy is somehow controversial,” he added.
Wyoming is not the first state to bar biological males from participating in women’s sports. As previously reported by LifeSiteNews, in 2022, several states across the country passed bans on men competing in women’s sports, a controversy that rose to the spotlight due to gender-confused collegiate swimmer “Lia” Thomas. Last February, Arizona approved legislation that effectively bans gender-confused individuals from competing against the opposite sex from kindergarten through collegiate sports. South Dakota and Indiana passed similar bans.
