Another cisgender girl in Utah has been accused of being transgender, leading to fears for her safety in the midst of an ongoing moral panic over transgender participation in sports.

Anti-trans legislation and rhetoric is a win-win for bigots! Not only do you get to oppress the minority of people who are trans, but you can also oppress women (and men who don't conform to stereotypes, but mostly women) by baselessly accusing them of being transgender.
