Federal Appeals Court Rules Against Women, Affirms Policy of Allowing Transgender Girls to Compete on Female Sports Teams in Connecticut Case
gateway pundit ^ | 12/16/2022 | margaret flavin

The Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) filed a lawsuit to bar two transgender athletes — Terry Miller and Andraya Yearwood — from competing in the 2020 spring outdoor track season on a girls team at a Connecticut school.

According to ADF:

Soule v. Connecticut Association of Schools, a lawsuit filed on behalf of four female athletes who were consistently deprived of honors and opportunities to compete at elite levels because the Connecticut Interscholastic Athletic Conference adopted a policy that allows males who identify as female to compete in girls’ athletic events.

Starting in 2017, two male athletes began competing in Connecticut girls’ high school track. In just three years, those two males broke 17 girls’ track meet records, deprived girls of more than 85 opportunities to advance to the next level of competition and took 15 women’s state track championship titles. Four of those championship titles were earned by ADF’s client, Chelsea Mitchell. Four times she was the fastest female in a women’s state championship race, and four times she watched that title, honor, and recognition go to a male athlete instead. Over the course of her high school career, Mitchell lost to these males more than 20 times.

The other female athletes represented in this case, Selina Soule, Alanna Smith, and Ashley Nicoletti, all likewise have been denied medals, placements, or advancement opportunities because of the male athletes competing on their team.

Men in women’s sports demonstrates clearly the breakdown of morality and reason in our culture. Women are expected to compete with men in sports where they can not succeed. Men are able to receive legal support if they describe themselves as women.
These policies institutionalize injustice.

Let male dominance of women return!

Men once again rule the world and women are merely their property.

Whats wrong ladies? Can’t you keep up with your weak,inferior bodies?

I disagree. What you’re seeing is the inevitable progression of modern feminism. In fact, under current U.S. law it should be ILLEGAL for public schools to allow boys and girls to compete separately. How is a segregated sports league any different than a segregated bus system or restaurant?

Women have spent a lot of time and energy convincing the world that they’re equal to men in all respects. I say they should be treated accordingly.

They should abolish Title IX.

They should also stop indulging the delusions of obviously mentally disturbed persons.

Any real females competing against these fake females should refuse to participate in any event. Let the fake female(s) compete alone or among themselves. It will be a hollow “victory”.

Girls should withdraw from women’s sports. Hold their own sports events away from schools.

Right. All the real girls should just resign all across the country. That would send a message.

What are little girls made of?
Sugar and spice,
And all that’s nice;
That’s what little girls are made of.

A three-judge panel of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed that discrimination against transgender students violates Title IX, which prevents educational institutions that receive federal funding from discriminating based on sex.

Time to jettison Title IX and again recognize that men and women are different and that it is not unjust to treat them differently.

Well that is the road to hell, paved with high sounding platitudes on roads of quicksand. Try dealing with reality, not vaunted ideals born of the fetid minds of Godless cultists.
So, you disagree that immorality and irrationality are pillars of wokeism?

Never mind about what the Left wants.

Since when are the courts taking judicial notice of the fiction that men can become women?
