WASHINGTON, D.C. — The Supreme Court took a break from deliberations regarding individuals competing in sports designated for the opposite sex to bring in an expert five-year-old boy to explain the difference between boys and girls.

"Boys have wee-wees and girls have vee-vees," said Hunter Plath, a five-year-old boy from Iowa.

According to court records, the explanation elicited various responses from the justices. Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson were seemingly astonished, saying, "Ohhhhhhhh!" Associate Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh only giggled.

Justice Clarence Thomas reportedly rolled his eyes as the two most liberal justices of the court followed up with questions on precisely what a "wee-wee" was, but were rebuffed by the child who simply answered, "I'm not allowed to say. My mom won't let me."

Law experts believe the court will eventually uphold the right of states to enforce their own laws on transgender athletes, especially if the liberal justices can find out what a wee-wee is.

At publishing time, Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson sought more help understanding the matter from retired children's educator Barney the Dinosaur.
