I was a track champion — until the NCAA replaced me with a man
New York Post ^ | 8/12 | Caroline Hill

On Sunday, I outed myself: I am Track Athlete A in a major lawsuit, Gaines v. NCAA, that aims to win justice for women in college sports. For two years, I’ve lived in the shadows, watching my records, my opportunities, my dignity and my voice get stripped away — not by happenstance, but by design, as colleges applied rules allowing male athletes into women’s sports.

My university, the Rochester Institute of Technology, and my own coaches applauded as a man competed on our women’s team, erased my records and those of other women, and was ushered into our locker room.

SNIP

Federal law was supposed to protect young women like me. Instead, Title IX was ignored.

Transgender woman = Male

poor girl has had her rights trampled. She needs to sue everyone involved.

$500,000,000 million should do since that was what they sued Trump for!

If she joins the military, suddenly she becomes the equal of men.

From the article:

“Later during that season, Jacqueline Nicholson, RIT’s executive director of athletics, met with the team to tell us that this man had no physical advantage over us . . “

If a man has no physical advantage over female athletes, why do women’s sports even exist? And if there’s no competitive reason for women’s sports, why does Title IX even exist?

Exactly. Jacqueline Nicholson, RIT's executive director of athletics is admitting to fraud. Claiming Title IX funding while denying men are different from women is fraud.

Seems to me Colleges and Universities became targets for putting Leftists in charge who are now promoting only Leftists causes like DEI, transgender equality and supporting Democrats not Republicans. The only cure as I see it is to withdraw all Government financial support for them and let them die and be regenerated as institutes of high learning like they use to be.

If I've said once, I've said it a million times.

We need celebrate diversity and form a separate league for trannys to compete in.

Let the neutered men and boosted women fight out on their own turf - let the ones with best hormone therapy docs and the best Swedish surgeon's win!

The drama generated by these drama queens would be off the charts and the cat fights alone would be worth the price of admission . It would revolutionize sports

Women get screwed double in the trans athlete world.

They get their butts kicked by trans bio men and women who are trans men have zero chance of competing against men in any sport except darts - and maybe not even then

The whole trans-nonsense has exposed the Left for the frauds they have always been. It is now clear for all the world to see.

This is why social media was silencing anyone even remotely critical of the trans-agenda. Because the case for "trans-rights" is paper-thin and easy for even a half-wit can poke holes in it.

Look up who Jacquelin Nicholson is. Anyone want to bet on the male competitors race?

All of the school, sports, and elected/appointed officials who allowed males to play in women’s sport events need to be tried, convicted, and sentenced to be publicly hanged for giving aid and comfort to the domestic enemies of the United States.

How can any parent let their child “transition”?

I’m about to find out. New woman in ourr hood has three kids, she said, and one is a trannie. When I know her better, I’ll ask her.

My most beautiful friend in SF had a daughter who was not pretty, a Harley riding lesbian. Nice, polite girl, didnt hate men, including my husband. After her mother died, Lynn became a man. She was about 30 then. I’m not upset about that, she did it in an OK way. And you can’t get into her web site unless you’re a member.

We should have seen this coming the minute the Democrats started with their Republican's "war on women" mantra.

Knowing that Democrats are 100% guilty of all unprovoked, unsolicited accusations they hurl at Republicans.

I agree 100%! We have a generation of parents who are mentally stunted. You don’t let your kids drive the bus. Their brains aren’t fully developed and their “choices” change on a dime. And the parents completely trust the schools system to “care” for their kids. Nope never. Parents have abdicated their responsibility for raising decent people because they never matured themselves.

I'm ashamed that I didn't come up with such an obvious response to this tranny bullshit.
