At the end of this I linked an extract of a positive letter that United States Utah governor Spencer Cox wrote. It grounds the conversation back to Earth in a fantastic way. Bear in mind, he’s specifically referring to student athletes in this discussion. So this is tangential to OP’s discussion, but the underlying premise is near identical from my understanding.
That’s the thing that I find particularly bad. Elite sports, sure there’s transphobia aplenty but I get why people take it seriously at least. But kids’ sports? Come on, people. Let the kids have fun without demanding you fucking inspect their genitals or whatever they are doing now. People take kids’ sports way too seriously, I think it’s really harmful.

I’m glad some people see that, like Spencer Cox.
