NFL Hall of Famer Brett Favre made it clear where he stands when it comes to transgenderism and the radical activists pushing it, calling it “wrong” that a trans-identifying man can use a women’s bathroom.

During the 53-year-old’s recent appearance on Jason Whitlock’s “Fearless” podcast, Favre said some of the things leftists promote are “beyond belief,” Fox News reported.

“To think that a young man who identifies as a girl, I don’t understand it — just hear me out — can go into a girl’s bathroom and use the restroom with girls, and for us to think that’s OK, I think is wrong,” said Favre.

“I’m sorry…” he added. “I just think some things we’re allowing in this country are beyond belief… Some of the thoughts and beliefs we’re seeing are crazy.”

The former Green Bay Packers quarterback’s conversation with Whitlock then turned to the debate of biological trans-identifying males being able to compete against women in female sports, with both blasting the idea.

“I think maybe vast majority [of athletes] are afraid of what it’ll do to their career,” Favre said when asked why athletes aren’t speaking out. “And it’s not affecting them directly. Not yet, at least.”

“Who knows where this country’s going?” he added. “It may affect them somewhere down the road. Is it too late? I don’t know. It’s scary.”

Favre joins the likes of tennis legend Martina Navratilova, actor John Cleese, and comedian Rob Schneider who have said biological males competing in women’s sports is “not fair” and has to “stop.”

“Lia Thomas Says Her Critics Using ‘Feminism’ Claims To Hide Transphobia- NEWSFLASH Lia- it’s not fair,” Navratilova tweeted in her recent viral post.

“We shouldn’t have to explain it to you over and over,” she added. “Also- stop explaining feminism to feminists….”

Her comments came in response to biological male transgender athlete Lia Thomas who called out critics for pushing “transphobic beliefs” under the “guise of feminism.”
