Good for them. Standing up for truth. I guarantee you that most of these young Ivy League swimmers were all on board with the entire LGBTQ movement until it came up and rapped them in the mouth.
And I’m not criticizing them. Don’t get me wrong. I’m saying that’s what reality does. That’s what life does. That’s how we learn. We think we’ve got everything figured out and then reality smacks us. Oh, it’s time to reassess.
Mind you, this is a baby step. They’re still trying to parse the language about sex and gender identity. Check it out.
Sixteen teammates of Penn transgender swimmer Lia Thomas sent a letter to the school and the Ivy League arguing that Thomas has an unfair advantage in the pool and shouldn’t be allowed to compete.
The letter obtained by the Washington Post on Thursday asks that the institutions decline to take legal action that could clear a path for Thomas to compete at next month’s NCAA championships.
Thursday’s letter was sent by 1984 Olympic gold medalist Nancy Hogshead-Makar. She’s the chief executive of women’s sports advocacy organization Champion Women and a critic of Thomas’ presence in the pool as a women’s competitor. The 16 Penn swimmers who supported the letter remained anonymous, according to the Post.
“We fully support Lia Thomas in her decision to affirm her gender identity and to transition from a man to a woman,” the letter reads. “Lia has every right to live her life authentically. However, we also recognize that when it comes to sports competition, that the biology of sex is a separate issue from someone’s gender identity.
“Biologically, Lia holds an unfair advantage over competition in the women’s category, as evidenced by her rankings that have bounced from #462 as a male to #1 as a female. If she were to be eligible to compete against us, she could now break Penn, Ivy, and NCAA Women’s Swimming records; feats she could never have done as a male athlete.”
So they fully support this dude’s “transition” except when it might impact them. This letter obviously doesn’t go far enough. This entire trans moment is brought to you by unreason, illogic, and moral blindness.
The left argues that gender is a social construct but if there’s no real difference between genders, how does one come to realize that their body is the wrong gender? If you ask me, why assume the body is wrong. Seriously. If your body and brain don’t agree, maybe, just maybe it’s your brain. Just consider the possibility, would ya?
