CHANGE: Mazie Hirono Is Suddenly Concerned About the Differences Between Men and Women. Guess Why.

The most interesting part of this exchange, however, is Hirono’s accidental admission that men and women have physiological differences. After years of Democrats telling us there’s no difference between men and women, and their rabid support of letting men play in women’s sports.

In fact, Mazie Hirono herself blocked “anti-trans” legislation that would have prohibited men from competing in women’s sports back in 2022. During her remarks, Hirono said Republicans were “hurl[ing] insulting lies about transgender girls dominating sports” before calling the bans “deeply harmful” to “transgender girls.”

So we have to ask Senator Hirono, which is it — are women at a physiological disadvantage compared to men, or is it a lie that men dominate women’s sports?

It’s too bad Patel didn’t ask Hirono, “What is a women?” Her response would have added to all of the other leftist sputtering that Patel left in his wake today.

Mazie Hirono is BIG MAD that the FBI is requiring certain applicants to pass a fitness test, including pull-ups "which a lot of women cannot because of physiological differences?"

So men and women ARE different, senator? pic.twitter.com/DZLttvIgl8

Meanwhile, “In an unexpected pivot, Sen. Katie Britt (R-AL) seized on Hirono’s remarks to make a broader argument about gender-based standards — and to advocate preserving sex-based distinctions in areas such as women’s sports:”

“Before I begin, I want to thank Sen. Hirono for what she said, acknowledging that there are physical differences between men and women,” Britt said. “I think she was making a case that there should be different standards … and that’s why we continue to say we should have biological men in men’s sports and biological women in women’s sports.”

Heh, indeed.
