UPenn Swimmer’s Father: Penn Told Female Swimmers To ‘Get Over’ Lia Thomas Using Locker Room

The father of a female swimmer on the University of Pennsylvania’s women’s swim team said in an interview this week that the school breached trust and failed to protect his daughter by allowing biological male swimmer Will “Lia” Thomas to compete on the women’s team this season and share a locker room with the team.

The father made the remarks in an interview with The Washington Examiner on the condition of anonymity.

“I can’t say she’s been traumatized, but there was definitely a breach of trust and a failure on the part of Penn to protect her,” the father told The Examiner.

“In the fall of 2019, when Lia first came out, the girls were told she would have her own separate space somewhere,” the father said regarding Thomas sharing the locker room with female swimmers. “For some reason, that obviously changed. I’m not sure why it changed. Was it money? Was it legal threats?”

As Matt covered earlier this year, members of the UPenn women’s swim team felt uncomfortable sharing the locker room with Thomas. An anonymous swimmer told Daily Mail that Thomas “still has male body parts and is still attracted to women.” The swimmer added that other members of the team spoke to the team’s coaches about the issue, but the discussions did not go anywhere.

That’s what I meant by “(not UPenn, but same state)”.

Hey, pop, your daughter's the real thing. As for "Lia", it ain't a HER or a SHE!
