Teammate of Lia Thomas says UPenn officials warned women's team of consequences for complaints about trans swimmer's presence

A teammate of controversial transgender swimmer Lia Thomas said University of Pennsylvania officials warned women swimmers they'd face consequences for speaking out against the presence of Thomas — a biological male who identifies as female — on the women's swim team.

“They’ve made it pretty clear if you speak up about it, your life will be over in some way, you’ll be blasted all over the Internet as a transphobe … you’ll never be able to get a job,” the teammate told Matt Walsh as part of his just-released "What Is a Woman?" documentary, according to the Daily Wire.

Quit the team then. It’s not worth it.

It would take a courageous student-athlete to stand up to an institution like UPenn when you're so close to the Brass Ring (and Ivy League diploma that can set you up for life). Plus these kids have probably witnessed all kinds of small-scale rebellions where kids they know have gone up against the schools they have attended and lost. Easy for their parents (probably making a huge financial sacrifices to pay that Penn tuition) to persuade their kids to just shut up & go along.

In normal nobody outside the families of the competitors would give a crap about women’s sports.

“UPenn officials warned women’s team of consequences”

Of what?
If they didn’t want it? If they spoke about it? What?

Coercion? Lawsuit time?

Pounding a square peg into a round hole.

“Some Absorbine Jr. in Thomas’ jockstrap might slow him down. (I recall that as a rather cruel joke years ago.)”

All girls should line up for the swim meet and when the whistle is blown, just stand and cheer for the guy. Then say, hey I supported him. He was so awesome I couldn’t stand to compete against him. If nobody from either team will swim against him, the emperors clothes will be exposed as fake.

University of Pennsylvania officials
Not a shock they are woke retards. That thinking even infests religion-based institutions that have fairly well defended tradition. See the Greg Shultz case.

These days, the outliers are the institutions that are not woke. Narrow is the way.

I wish some of the real girls would have transferred or quit for a different conference. eff Penn. Penn has always been weird about sex. Isn’t that the place that was hiding the sex abuse of kids by the football coach?

That was Penn State Pennsylvania State University!
Penn is University of Pennsylvania and it’s Ivy League.

“Hey, real women - we’re gonna make a man the star of your sports and if you bitches bitch about it, there will be Hell to pay.”

May not be the exact wording but close enough..

Ivy League = culture of extreme leftism.
Also, the NCAA is aiding and abetting it.

It’s not your opinion that doesn’t matter, it’s your humanity.

What an ugly way to take some girl’s humanity away from them, forcing them against their will to share a locker room with a twisted young man.

They’re just objects, drones.

This is where the country is right now. A small number of radical delusionary nazis control the thoughts and words of the entire population.

You can be fired and blackballed for life for not agreeing with their agenda. Government knows about this and 100% agrees with it and supports it, making government equally fascist.

Already happens. Male (yes, a guy, not a real woman) wrestlers were one of the first pack of loons doing this BS.
He (yes, not a she) pinned every opponent with little difficulty. Of course, his denser muscle mass is never altered by any hormone treatment.
Like with all other examples, this is a loser or at best mediocre jock who stooped to lying in order to get a trophy. His parents must be so proud.

“Lia” Thomas still has “guido” in his speedos.

The women should pin him down in the locker room and remove the inappropriate part.
