p>And now it’s not just the female swimmers who have issues with him. A group of parents has sent a letter to the NCAA and the University of Pennsylvania detailing their concerns about having a biologically male swimmer tower so far above the females against whom he is competing.

“At stake here is the integrity of women’s sports,” the group of 10 parents wrote. “The precedent being set — one in which women do not have a protected and equitable space to compete — is a direct threat to female athletes in every sport. What are the boundaries? How is this in line with the NCAA’s commitment to providing a fair environment for student-athletes?”

The Daily Mail reports why the parents are so concerned for their daughters on the swim team.

One parent, who asked not to be identified for fear of repercussions for herself and her daughter, told DailyMail.com, ‘The swimmers have mixed feelings. Many of them want to speak up, but they don’t because they believe they’ll be ostracized.

‘Everybody is scared,’ the mom added. ‘Parents are also scared that the kids will be harmed. We are paying $80,000 for this school. Their life will be impacted.’

The letter went to both the NCAA and the university on Dec. 5. The NCAA has yet to respond, but the University of Pennsylvania weighed in. The school’s brief reply centered on the acceptance of all athletes — especially Thomas — and invoked that magical liberal totem of inclusivity.

We need to be trans-exclusive as a civilization.

Outlawing homosexual acts again would also be a good idea.

When a culture embraces hedonistic decadence, the wholesome and rational gets destroyed. They cannot co-exist.

All those woke suburban hausfrauen got what the voted for, 'cause ya know, orange man bad. Now they can explain that to their daughters, explain that psychos, freaks and pervs are entitled to shove their daughters to the side. Embrace the woke!

We must take back the language and stop using “trans…” and stop calling people by pronouns that are incorrect. If an obvious man is going by a female first name, he should be called Mr. and whatever his last name is. Do not enable this societal mental illness!

If they’re really so unhappy about it, then quit or BOYCOTT the team, until he’s the only one left on it.

"...the real women swimmers of the University of Pennsylvania are SECRETLY unhappy with their teammate."

"...we have to be like, ‘Oh my gosh, go Lia, that’s great, you’re amazing.’ It’s very fake."

"The swimmers have mixed feelings. Many of them want to speak up, but they don’t because they believe they’ll be ostracized."

The insane leftists have everybody so scared in the country that few will speak up about the reality of the situation, that MEN pretending to be women are beating REAL women in physical contests.

Until people get over their fear of the "cancel culture," nothing will change. When the NORMALS begin speak up in unison against the FREAKS then things will change. Or when the NORMALS being to seriously protest and not show up for meets with pretend women.

Not my problem. Y'all voted for Joe Biden. So unintended consequences like this is happening to liberal families with their daughters on the swim team. Embrace the suck.

At least Sleepy Joe is not writing any mean tweets so we are better off as a country today.

Thomas will be swimming in the next Olympics, unless the rational ideology can boycott Olympics, or female Olympians refuse to swim against a man, or something to convince these science deniers to stop their balderdash.

If all those folks are so enraged, can’t they cough up a few bucks to make an example of what happens the next time queers invade women sports?

My ENTIRE LIFE I’ve heard that women are ‘equal’ to men. So it seems to me that the other girls on this team are spending too much time in the ‘books’ and not enough time in the pool.

They need learn to TRY HARDER and make that commitment, rather than trying to exclude women from other backgrounds, just because they’re lazy.

How many of these parents were turned off by Trump tweets and voted Democrat?

Clinking glasses at the Biden inauguration block party. Smiles and high fives everywhere.

Now your daughters cry themselves to sleep at night.

Stupid humans, they’re everywhere.

But yet those same parents continue to pay thousands in tuition to that horrible sxhool.

All it took was a few sane people to speak out. At first it was a trickle, then a stream, and now it looks like the sanity continues to build into a river.

What you do is when the whistle blows, everyone but this guy stays poolside. Let him compete and win against himself.

If we didn't have such an effed up judiciary, this would be considered a Title IX violation.

If this guy had any shame he wouldn't be competing against biological women, but I suppose you have to be pretty screwed up to be a biological man thinking he's woman.
