Women’s Fencer Takes a Knee in Protest, Refuses to Face Trans Opponent: ‘This is a Man’
Breitbart ^ | April 03, 2025 | Staff

Posted on 04/03/2025 4:39:37 AM PDT by Red Badger

Women’s fencer Stephanie Turner refused a match against a transgender opponent at the Cherry Blossom Open in Maryland this past weekend, opting to take a knee instead.

When Turner learned that she would be facing off against transgender fencer Redmond Sullivan, she wanted her protest to be caught on video and decided to take a knee just before the match began. She had already participated in warmups and competed in four bouts that day. Take a look:

This type of protest needs to be mirrored by female athletes at scale. By agreeing to compete, you tacitly accept the absurd premise.pic.twitter.com/uAoM3UlzWm— Colin Wright (@SwipeWright) April 2, 2025

The trans dude should have been forced to compete with his blade removed.

A brilliant summation of what’s really going on and why.

Heartbreaking for these girls who spend their lives perfecting their sport only to have their dreams crushed by perverts. The woke fools in charge of this should be strapped to a pole and horsewhipped.

Screw this “take a knee” crap.
That has historically denoted submission.

Salute the dignitaries or other symbol of tradition/heroism present ....then,

.....turn your back on them.

USA Fencing sanctions the vast majority of sport fencing events in the US. Their leadership is at the far end of woke. They even go so far as to refuse to hold national competitions in states that are “red”. Needless to say there is a large contingent in the fencing community that hates their guts.

The obnoxious phonies who have been screeching about women's rights for forever now back taking rights away and humiliating women. It's disgusting to see woman treated like this. Who thought you would see stuff like this in the world?

Stop the madness.

Stephanie Turner is braver than all the scumbags that support and promote the queer agenda.

“This type of protest needs to be mirrored by female athletes at scale. By agreeing to compete, you tacitly accept the absurd premise.”

Absolutely. In mass... They make residual dollars from these events. They cannot have these events and make money from them if there are no participants.

They will change their tune fast... No one is going to come to see a tranny fence with himself...

HOORAY Stephanie Turner! Thanks mewzilla. Good point Lowell1775. Laugh at the “dignitaries” and “competitor” then walk away with your reasoning mind intact.

Infuriating. These women want one simple thing. To compete the very best they can against other women. And that simple request is being denied. Unbelievable.

It was probably already removed... :)

The reason they do not object is rather simple.

If they objected to a tranny competing against a female, it would be a tacit admission that men and women are not ‘equal’.

That ‘men and women are equal’ is the fundamental baseline of COMMUNISM......................

USA Fencing needs to be sued to their knees for a civil rights violation. And for generally being evil.
