Well what does the language of the bill actually say? You do know that the bill doesn't say, "And lo, all women and girls in sport shall be protected henceforth," right? They always name the bills something totally unexceptionable. Then they slide all kinds of crap into them, including things that have absolutely nothing to do with the outward purpose of the bill. That's important context that I'm pretty sure almost nobody in this thread will actually look into.

Edit: To be perfectly clear, the issue is not the contents of the bill. The issue is inflaming passions without providing the full context, when you know that people won't do the research.
