The prominent Democrat and former US Transport Secretary Pete Buttigieg approached his recent comments about the righteousness of letting biological men compete in women’s and girls’ sports.
After Buttigieg said “There are serious justice problems” about the subject of letting Trans athletes compete with women during an interview with NPR in July, the Democrat talked about the subject again during a lived live interview with Aaron Parnas. The Democrat suggested that parents who oppose themselves allow men to compete with girls to be heard.
“I think that to bring people together about this, we also have to take everyone seriously, including parents who have questions,” buttigieg said.

“People who have questions or wonder what it means … They want questions about how to make sure it’s fair and we need to take these questions seriously and meet them together.”
Former South Bend, Indiana, mayor also said he believes the question “is used to hurt” people as a political topic, and he doubled on the opinion that policies around Trans athletes in women’s sports should not be made by politicians.
“I see that this problem is used to divide. I see it used to hurt people,” he said. “It is especially hurtful for transgender people and people with transient members of their family who are witnessing themselves or people they love to be used as a political football.”
Buttigieg’s original quotes about NPR in July asked questions and criticism of some liberal and pro-trans activists as the question continues to divide the Democrat Party.
Buttigieg has joined several other prominent Democrats and media surveys that have spoken against letting men compete with women, including California’s head of government Gavin Newsom; Rep. Seth Moulton, D-Mass.; and HBO host Bill Maher.

Of the 2,128 people who participated, 79% biological men who identify themselves as women said should not be allowed to participate in women’s sports.
Of the 1,025 people who identified themselves as Democrats or inclined Democrat, 67%said transkon athletes should not be allowed to compete with women.
