High school girls walk off track at cross-country meet rather than compete against male runner in Washington state

The adults running Washington’s schools keep telling girls to accept boys in their sports. On Tuesday, girls at Camas High School delivered their answer: They walked away from a race rather than compete against a boy.

Nearly half of the girls’ cross-country team refused to compete against a male teammate, according to unDivided host Brandi Kruse, who shared footage recorded by Amy Sousa. The footage shows the starting gun going off and then a large group of girls stepping off the starting line and leaving the field.

The walk-off came after two runners from rival Skyview High School staged a similar protest last month. Skyview runners Charlie Garrett and Sierra Retzlaff lined up with messages supporting women’s sports painted on their arms and legs, then left the course after the starting gun. “We did it because we didn’t want to act like we were OK with what was happening,” Retzlaff explained.

Kruse also reported that additional athletes stayed away from Tuesday’s meet. “I’m told seniors and team captains didn’t show up and refused to run as well. Much of the other team (Battleground) also refused to run, not even making the trip to Camas,” she wrote.

For those who don’t know, Cross Country is a full contact sport

Bravo, girls! You did the correct thing; keep up the good work and stand up for your rights!

I’ve said this before, but it bears repeating. Women, both liberal and conservative, fought long and hard for girls’ sports. It wasn’t political, it was the right thing to do. Now that the tranny crowd is attempting to infiltrate, I’ll GUARANTEE 95% of liberal women don’t like it, but:

Tranny > Gay > Race > Concerned parent.

Conservative women have been vocal about this issue, but liberal women know the pecking order.

It’s a womens issue-THEIR problem. If they want to vote for us we can jump in and help. Problem is they’ll stick with their abusers whoile hoping to change them.

Lets hope leftists keep embarrassing themselves with this.

They will radicalize a generation of youth into conservative politics and a common-sense, christian world view.

Glad for those kids making a stand for normalcy and common sense.

Given they live in a liberal blue shithole state, I hope they don’t get blackballed as “bigots” if they apply to colleges or apply for scholarships in the future.

They should have done this 15 years ago when it started in Connecticut. Dads too. They should have lied down on the track and been arrested.

[DIRTYSECRET]

They have no sense of embarrassment or shame for that matter. Don’t count on them turning everyone into Jesus lovers. We’ll have to deal with them through eternal vigilance to make sure they never rise. Problem is you can’t shoot em’. Makes us no different. Outside events often help them. Events we have no control over.

If a 'man' can't win against other men, he pretends he's a woman, competes against women, and wins almost every time.

But alas, some 'men' pretending to be women mighjt lose against women. They're sad. What's next? Next, 'men' who pretended they were women now can pretend they're children A twenty five year old man pretending to be a women who's pretending to be a child can win every race against a team of 8 year olds. This is a win for democrats, for the idiots who run the party and it's lots of votes,

Elections have consequences - VOTE!

Girls have absolutely no chance of winning against mediocre male athletes. He would not even qualify against the boys.

Karens would rather collect virtue points than do what is right for their daughters.

"Conservative women have been vocal about this issue, but liberal women know the pecking order."

Another factor may be that leftist women might privately have doubts about men in women's sports but think that taking a stand against it might be the first step in the dismantling of the whole LGBTQ+ worldview, i.e., "First they came for the trannies in women's sports, and I said nothing; then they came for all the trannies, and I said nothing . . . " and so forth.

Well it’s about time! Good for them - wth is wrong with every female team who does not do the same?
