GOP lawmaker left speechless when asked if he's trans during a hearing
He huffed about how the question wasn't "appropriate" even though his bill would result in kids being asked that same question.
A Republican state rep from Michigan testifying about his anti-trans sports bill on Monday was left speechless after an out Democratic colleague began his questioning by asking, “Representative, can you tell me: are you trans?”
A long beat staring down out gay Democratic state Rep. Mike McFall followed, before state Rep. Jason Woolford (R) managed to reply, “Are you?”
“I’m actually going somewhere with this,” he said to lawmakers in the small chamber.
“Because I want to know, how does a 14-year-old girl prove whether or not she’s trans to a 50-year-old coach?”

Penis inspection day was real though. Up until ≈1974 in the USA you had to show your dick to go swimming in public pools.
For real-real? Saurce?
