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.

They should all just quit. Kind of hard to have a “team” with only one person.....

Deep State’s war on women continues while intellectually bankrupt modern feminism is silent. And complicit.

Amen. They’re focused attention on the liberal idiocy. Now time to quit and leave the Penn swim team with no one but Lia Thomas.

After a week or two, they’d be back sans Thomas.

How? What money does Ivy League female swimming make?
Besides, women are equal to men. Suck it up.

Post 3_:::
How long can this go on?
Well, as long as the education and political leaders allow and promote the perversion. It is time to take back the schools and the school boards.

Refuse to race. Let the homo swim alone. Oh, and repent for all the support you gave to to the LGBT cause up until the moment it affected you.

“They should refuse to train (officially) and compete until this known cheater is booted from the team.”

Many if not most are likely on partial or full athletic scholarships. They refuse to train, they give up their money.

As long as the school allows this travesty to continue, the athletes are caught between a rock and a hard place.

WNBA = an average boy’s junior high BB team...

...and why so few normals pay to watch such low skill athletes.

Yep. Hehehehe.

One of my favorite quotes, which I have personally experienced many times in my life:

Be careful what you wish for because at some point you will discover that wanting something is far better than actually having it.

This is on the university and the NCAA. This ‘man’ should not be allowed to compete against women. End of discussion. And then TPTB worsen the situation by trying to muzzle the real women swimmers.

Show up for practice and for competitions.
As soon as sheman master of the deep end arrives, everyone promptly pack up and quietly leave as a group.

Do that two or three times especially at competitions and if it isn’t solved, let it remain a one man girls swim team. Make the first walkout at a competition meet. The university will lose much face to other schools. Everyone will know. Shame the University with the silent boycott.

“How is “it” cheating? Women have told me how they are equal, so...”

When this breaks into the open and I plan to troll Leftist sites and tell them that women athletes are lazy and simply do not train as hard as trannies and if they want to win, they need to train HARDER, much harder.

We’ll see how much they’ll like this ‘equality’ crap.

Maybe these angry woman will wake up and realize the scumbags pushing this stuff are the enemy, and will vote accordingly.
