“So this is how I look at it. LGBTQ rights and all that is in full support for it, but when transking athletes, men change to women and they compete in female sports, it’s another animal for me,” he said.
“It’s not just about LGBTQ rights. It’s about curious about women’s rights out there everywhere women were born and they are in a decided disadvantage.”
Smith’s attitude came when President Donald Trump signed an executive order to prevent transient athletes from competing against women and girls.
