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.

Sure. Why not? Women live homosexuals. Women love ‘transgenders’, meaning homosexual transvestites. Women claim they can do anything men can do. So, let them.

Any HONEST conservative woman knows that you are correct and would gladly give up their little vote, knowing that the country would, VERY QUICKLY, move back to the Constitution if we went back to the rules in place when it was written (only land-owning men being allowed to vote).

I know Ann Coulter is not popular here anymore, but even she said she'd gladly give up her right to vote because women in general vote badly.

I agree that women should not be voting, at least at the federal level, but for those hand-wringing latent SJWs and delicate ladies we have here on FR, I'll explain it in the same gentle terms I used when I explained it years ago to a lady who had just received her PhD in Biology (and was correspondingly indoctrinated):

Women and men think differently. They simply do. And women seem to be focused inward. If you were to think of a community as a fortress, women are standing against the wall of that fortress looking inside to make sure everyone is taken care of (really to make sure that the women and children are taken care of). Their backs are to the outside world.

Men, on the other hand, seem to be oriented outward, focused on the securing against external threats to the community, and providing for gross basic needs like food, clothing and shelter. Men stand on top of the wall of that fortress looking outside, guarding against invaders, looking for food sources (and other resources) to bring inside the walls.

The function of government, especially at the federal level, is to be the wall of that fortress. Such a wall is useless if everyone who stands on top of it is looking inward, but that's what women tend to do when they vote. Even when they are placed on top of that wall, they behave as if there is still a wall behind them.

Things like the welfare state only exist because of a voting base that prioritizes inwardly focused things over the true job of a federal or state government, a voting base who prioritizes being taken care of over being free, and the welfare state mentality is EXACTLY what is destroying us.

And therein endeth my wall of text.

Neanderthal we’re the superior race.

[Tommy Revolts]

Agreed. They should be careful what they wish for.

Just curious, does Lia get to share the same locker room and shower with the other swimmers? Asking for a friend.

[Clutch Martin]

No leagues, lower tuition costs, Foster amateur clubs and intramural league play.

Hut-Sut Rawlson on the rillerah and a brawla, brawla sooit

and all that...

This is so awful for the women & girls who have trained hard to be the best.

Why bring gender into the discussion? If I train in weightlifting, why would I train to beat the teenager or old man? I’m going to train to beat the strongest person in the room.

These women are training to beat the weakest among them. They refuse to train to beat Thomas. Why? Because invariably, women don’t have the mental discipline or the willingness to play by the rules they create. They are using their gender to make excuses for their own inability to accept the world as it is. Stop making excuses and train harder.

ABSOLUTELY NO SYMPATHY

[[They’ve pushed the lie that men and women are the same]]

They aren’t equal, men are now better at being “female” (translated = mentally sick individuals that need help) atheletes than women are apparently. The feminists didn’t factor this in when they demanded equality in everything.

[knarf]

It's actually a male problem.

Boys used to beat the crap out of effeminate boys and put a stop to THAT shit.

Ever since bullying became a subject for school policies, red blooded American boys have "learned" (conditioned) to not respond as they naturally want.

Feminist girls who would jerk them off under the bleachers made them feel like they were still men, only to find out that was a safe way to satisfy stupid prurient interests while the more important conditioning continued un noticed ... the emasculation of the American male.

Too late ... they graduated and the initiation had begun.

Get rid of bullying policies (there were always strong and righteous boys that could and would assist at a time of bullying) and allow the educsation process ... proceed.

Simple solution here: Allow this guy to compete, but do so against the men’s teams.

Where are the NOW hags??? They should be standing up for and supporting their sisters, but their silence is deafening.

[CodeToad]

Another aspect of change is that girls do not get an education throughout school so they need a hard lesson like this to teach them.

[reg45]

Women are not the best at any sport of any kind.

Except for beach volleyball. LOL

[Dave W]

Completely agree.

[JayGalt]

Women belong anywhere their skills, dedication, integrity & drive take them. They do not belong anywhere they are placed by quota or political correctness.

[EEGator]

I enjoyed your wall of text.

The funny thing, conservative or Republican, women seem to not realize they would get what they want if they couldn’t vote.
They would rather lose and have the right to vote, than not have the right and win.
That is the summary of the female mind. Emotional, not logical.

[EEGator]

Your lack of balls is embarrassing. Pussy.

[cgbg]

“Where are the NOW hags???”

When it is time to speak truth to real power (that demands silence from students) they are nowhere to be found.

Biologically women are very different. Muscles, bones, etc.
While a rare woman can work very hard to get stronger than a few men. The average man is definitely far stronger than a woman.
