On Thursday, 16 members of the Penn Women’s Swimming Team sent a letter to the University of Pennsylvania and the Ivy League asking them to refrain from suing the NCAA over its new Athlete Inclusion Policies that would bar Lia Thomas, formerly known as Will Thomas, from participating in the NCAA championships in March. They stated, “We have been told that if we spoke out against her inclusion into women’s competitions, that we would be removed from the team or that we would never get a job offer.”
“The group, organized by three-time Olympic gold medalist Nancy Hogshead-Makar, sent the letter early Thursday morning asking UPenn and the Ivy League to support us as biological women’ and not engage the NCAA in legal action in an effort to challenge the new protocols,” Swim Swam reported, adding, “Hogshead-Makar says that the swimmers wrote the letter themselves, though both Hogshead-Makar, an organized group of parents, and other athletes, made edits before arriving at the final draft.”
In the letter, the swimmers note, “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 (Thomas) 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.”
They continue:
Most important to us is that Lia’s inclusion with unfair biological advantages means that we have lost competitive opportunities. Some of us have lost records. But even those that swim different events than Lia or were not in contention to make the Ivy Championships, we stand by our teammates who have lost out.

his ratings hes 100% a male ...
Exhibit number one for how far we have sunk as a nation:
“We have been told that if we spoke out against her (its) inclusion into women’s competitions, that we would be removed from the team or that we would never get a job offer.”
Servile.
The near 500th worst male athlete is better than the best female athlete.
But...but...Men and women are totally equal.
All to Faggotry they surrender.
Tolerating threats of retaliation only increases the likelihood of more of it.
Take a stand or be prepared to get run over.
One this puke’s teammmates even said in an interview the freak shows his/her/it’s genitals to the female swim mates on the team. Everyone has a price, goes the saying..
Pretty pathetic that a man that can’t compete and win agaisnt other males has to compete agaisnt females In order to win and feel good about himself. He might win agaisnt females, but hes still a pathetic loser becausemof,jow,he has to,win, by competing agaisnt slower weaker women
Journalism school is supposed to teach how to write concisely, and give the who-what-when-where-why.
From the very beginning, I can’t tell if they are buckling, or standing strong.
The man should not be allowed to compete against women, that is a clear line. This is not brain surgery, so write the rule to have DNA testing on all participants in women only sports at the College level. Disallow males no matter if they pretend to be females or not.
I’m beginning to believe (or maybe just hope) this guy is trolling the system. In interviews he still has a low voice (despite claiming he is on hormone replacement therapy) and has a constant smirk on his face - duper’s delight.
He still has his equipment and apparently gets aroused in the women’s locker room.... like a normal het male would.
I am hoping after he graduates he’ll say ‘psych’ and reveal this whole trans sports insanity for what it is.
“ On Thursday, 16 members of the Penn Women’s Swimming Team sent a letter to the University of Pennsylvania and the Ivy League asking them to refrain from suing the NCAA over its new Athlete Inclusion Policies ”
How many members on the swim team? I am quite tempted to throw them over. If the girls are ok with relegating themselves to being perpetual losers with no identity other than what is claimed by another then who am I to complain? They want trannys in the locker room, let them have them. Likewise, when there is trouble, remember we told you so.
No pressure there. Bullies have taken over the playground and are demanding everybody’s compliance, or there will be “consequences”, none of which seem to be at all pleasant.
If a male walked in off the street to a women’s bathroom and exposed himself, he’d be arrested and rightfully so, but because the maggot male mental patient exposes himself to women, the left call it a right. That’s how spiritually sick our society is becoming.
Tiger Woods can reboot his entire career.

Exactly.
With these 16 babies, ethics, honesty, decency towards their associates...all rate well below their personal needs.
16 of college age with no ethical foundation.
It is a lot easier to just say nothing. This might not be the strongest protest they can make, but each one had to make a personal decision to sign the letter.
