Second female Penn swimmer steps forward, describes teammates in tears

Penn administration 'strongly advise' its swimmers to avoid talking to the media about the situation surrounding Thomas..

...

Even after a Wednesday team meeting where a source says Penn administration "strongly advised" its swimmers to avoid talking to the media about the situation surrounding transgender Penn swimmer Lia Thomas, a second female Penn swimmer has stepped forward to speak out

...

The second female Penn swimmer to speak out, who was granted anonymity due to what is viewed as threats from the university, activists, and the political climate, wants people to know that Penn swimmers are "angry" over the lack of fairness in the sport as Lia Thomas destroys the record books and brings fellow teammates to tears.

...

The second Penn swimmer to come forward was at the University of Akron Zippy Invitational where she watched Lia Thomas beat fellow teammate Anna Kalandadze by 38 seconds in the 1650 freestyle. OutKick’s source described Penn swimmers on the Akron pool deck as upset and crying, knowing they were going to be demolished by Thomas.

They feel so discouraged because no matter how much work they put in it, they’re going to lose. Usually, they can get behind the blocks and know they out-trained all their competitors and they’re going to win and give it all they’ve got

...

Now they’re having to go behind the blocks knowing no matter what, they do not have the chance to win. I think that it’s really getting to everyone

...

after the 200 freestyle, Thomas could be overheard bragging.

"That was so easy, I was cruising..

...

the biological women are pretty much being told to shut their mouths and move along by the school and the NCAA.

...

biological women will never be on an equal playing field with transgender females.

I guess it's all really brave and cutting edge in movies, Hollywood, and politics until the reality of it actually hits you personally, huh?

At his peak, Usain Bolt could legitimately stand up and say: “There are X billion people in the world today, and I can run faster than any of them.”

Meanwhile … the anonymous, forgotten female sprinter who competed at the same time could say: “There are X billion people in the world today, and I can run faster than the 50% I’m willing to compete against.”

Kinda takes a lot of the shine off the accomplishments of the female sprinter, doesn’t it?

I went to a crazy lefty college many decades ago—and I made lots of waves, leading a conservative group of campus.

It is a great character building experience—you can learn more from that experience in a few years than most people who “go along to get along” learn in their entire lives.

Lessons learned include:

Everybody lies about everything—trust no one.

You are on your own.

You need brass ones to survive and prosper in life.

Never give in to sociopaths.

Never.

“since no one on our side is willing to step up to it.”

Not sure who you think “our” side is.

Not sure who you think “it” is.

Colleges, professors, and the majority of the students are so corrupted it is difficult to know where to begin.

Women refuse to just train harder to beat Thomas because women are mentally weak and lack discipline. That is the message from the people they (women) vote into office

QUIT YOUR BELLYACHING AND CRYING - TRAIN TO BEAT MEN, NOT OTHER GIRLS

Courage is called for. These women need to have the courage to stand up, walk away and say to the she-male: “go play with your balls by yourself. We won’t be party to this charade any longer.”

Great, hard lessons.

One person I knew then had a choice to make about cheating in organic chem I talked him out of it. I learned later that his greed and avarice did finally overtake him in his career…yet that face still looked friendly.

Of course, there is something miraculous that differentiates women from men, but apparently most are more interested in trying to be a weaker, slower version of a man.

Liberals always cry about the results of their decisions, but they still want and make the same decisions. Screw ‘em.

If the true women quit and go to different colleges, trannies will just show up there. They should demand DNA testing of all athletes just like they did at the Olympics when the East Germans showed up.

Penn State needs new leadership. Alums have a lot of stroke at this but seems they don’t have the Cajones.

Exactly. Women claim they can do equally well anything a man can do. So, let them. I am all for removing gender teams altogether

One of the books that inspired me back in those days:

https://www.amazon.com/Winning-Through-Intimidation-Robert-Ringer/dp/0449207862

While the book is about business, it applied to all aspects of life.

Bottom line—you are either playing offense or defense.

If you are playing offense you win.

If you are playing defense you lose.

When someone tells you something is impossible (and you want to do it) then you need to get super creative.

I have done “impossible” things many times in my life.

Lol, they can “train” till the end of time, and they’ll never “beat” them. The tranny’s women’s “record” time wasn’t even fast enough to win the men’s race.
