Quotes that support the claim

How are we supposed to get our girls used to the fact that biological boys are in their locker rooms? And then we wonder why a third of our teenage girls seriously contemplated suicide last year. We should be growing strong girls, confident girls.

You’ve got women who have worked so hard all their life to really get to the point in high school and college where they want to [be], and to have a biological man, who’s physiologically different, athletically, go and take that away… no, we’re not gonna erase the women like that. You can’t do that.

Whether it’s biological boys going into girls’ locker rooms or playing in girls’ sports, women are being told their voices don’t matter. If you think this kind of aggressive bullying isn’t part of the problem, you’re not paying attention.
