University of Pennsylvania transgender swimmer Lia Thomas won the 200-yard and 500-yard freestyle and finished in fifth place in the 100-yard freestyle during the school’s tri-meet with Yale and Dartmouth.
Thomas finished about two seconds ahead of her opponents with a time of 1:48.73 in the 200 freestyle. She missed out on setting an NCAA record held by Olympian Missy Franklin, who finished the event in 1:39.10 in 2015. Thomas wasn’t as dominant as she was at the Zippy Invitational at Akron last month.

You hit the nail on the head. This is a extremely simple solution - quit the team and refuse to compete against these men masquerading as women. And all women across the board should do this. Walk off - see the “team” compete with one “woman” on the team. All events, all sports, all meets.
I agree, but they don't want to lose their scholarships and be ostracized on campus by the woke mob is my guess why they're chickening out. I do wish when they line up preparing to swim they would just turn their backs instead.
“Why won’t these women just boycott “
If they had extraordinary courage, they would stand up and say, “To hell with this garbage. We’re not playing along with this insanity that has us competing with men pretending to be women and women who are allowed to juice on testosterone since they’re pretending to be men.”
But they’re 20-ish young women on scholarship to Ivy League colleges, and they’re likely afraid of losing that elite status and presumed ticket to career success. Sadly, being booted out of school for “transphobia” is a real possibility for them if they were to fight this.
Technically Ivy’s don’t give scholarships. They give aid based on financial needs.
Well the other man-chick went to UPenn, and that’s a state university.
The world has gone crazy and no one is willing to state the obvious. But it’s good that this is happening at an Ivy League University. Maybe it will wake up some of those WOKE folks.
That is correct. Ivy league schools don’t give athletic scholarships, they do give Scholastical scholarships. You are correct they will figure out from your tax returns how much you can afford. Which the size of their endowments I never understood why they bother to charge tuition anyway.
Two homos

You’re exactly right and the women competitors in other sports failing to speak out will get their opportunity soon. That 8th man on the college basketball team will say to himself he never gets a chance to play and will switch to women’s sports and be the MVP, same with tennis, golf and every other women’s sport where there is dishonest money to be made.
Because college educated women are the most clueless demographic on the planet.
My mother was wise and intelligent. She was a proud housewife.
“You are correct they will figure out from your tax returns how much you can afford.”
Funny how that works. They figure out what to charge you for something, based on how much income you have.
Imagine if that were done for houses, cars, or groceries?
My suggestion is that all non-trans swimmers either remain standing on the blocks or actually dive in but then instead of taking a stroke, just stand in their lane in the pool. Allow the tranny or trannies to swim the event, and remain standing in the pool until the race is over. After that happens a few times the pressure from attendees and television networks should be pretty effective in getting the sanctioning bodes and schools to change.
This has got to continue until the real girls end up coming in at sixth or seventh place - with nothing but trannies ahead of them.
Maybe then they will finally realize...

Well now, this thread would not be complete without pictures of the two lovelys.
But we gave them the right to vote.
The bad news it looks like Will has gotten the down low to stop winning everything so the MSM can memory-hole this calumny. Instead he loses to his freakbro and it is top news again lofl…
Penn State is. UPenn is Ivy.
I’m of the understanding that UP doesn’t have sports scholarships.
