An anonymous University of Pennsylvania swimmer has slammed transgender teammate Lia Thomas as she continued to dominate in the pool in a meet against Harvard this weekend, saying that she was 'not even close to being competitive' when competing as a man.
The swimmer, who chose to remain anonymous, spoke to the Washington Examiner about the advantages Thomas, 22, has gained through her transition, especially after the USA Swimming team announced it will allow 'non-elite' athletes to compete in a way that is 'consistent with their gender identity.'
On Thursday, USA Swimming said that it will release a new policy 'shortly' on whether elite trans athletes,

Women and in particular those women who lead women's sports have only themselves to blame. There was NEVER a need to closely allign with the LBTQ perverts. But then again, identifying as 'anti-men' wasn't necessary either. Women AND men need each other for success and fulfillment. It was never a zero sum game with only one winner. At this point it may be way too late to walk matters back.

Ya know I would feel differently about this but the very people who say "if he feels like a woman than he is a woman" are the students who now feel that they have no chance to win against her/him/he/she/IT. I hear students all the time say-oh he thinks he is a woman. Well then swim against this man who THINKS he is a woman and stop complaining. We told you so. Now do not come crying to us when you realize this was a BAD idea. And your parents will probably still send in donations to the college as alumns. So now don't come whining to me about not being fair. We have been saying men ARE NOT WOMEN but students keep saying, oh yes we are so woke, if a man FEELS like a woman he is and if you do not think so you are a bigot. Well, now you have it. You claim men can be women so do not complain now.
This is a problem of your own making.

After the Twin Towers fell and 3000 American innocents were murdered, my sister, who is a medical professional, told me that her M.E. male coworker said to her that when the time came, he would not kill her but his M.E. friends and family members would come to her home and kill her and her family and all other non-M.E. ppl who were not of his faith. I was horrified and told her to report him to her boss, and that this was workplace harassment, not to mention a murder threat to her and her family. She said, "Oh, no. They will fire me for being anti mus lim." This was over 20 years ago. I totally get it that the women shy away from speaking out, especially if they are on scholarship. My nieces and nephews received their degrees by keeping their noses in their books and their conservative mouths shut.

As William F Buckley reminded us many years ago do not insist on equality unless you really really mean it. Now it seems that women have sacrificed their privileged position for mere equality.

Does this creature still have all their luggage? If you want to compete with the women because you can't compete with your own gender, you really need to finish the job. Of course you are still a male, but at least you will be an honest one.

The misinformed and confused women who believe women and men are biologically interchangeable should pay attention to her statement in the headline - he wasn't even close to being a competitive swimmer as a man, but can set women's records that are unlikely to be broken by real women.

Ask "Anonymous" whether women should have equal opportunity to compete with men in this world...and why the opposite is not true. Because she and her sisters are revealed as the bottom tier human athletes they are.
Open competition is sports, like now in careers and other aspects of life, is necessary to complete the demands of woke women and the LGBQAAT+ crowd. Give it to them. And demand every woke sports league, from grade school to top professional ranks, now include players, coaches and referees that "represent America". An NBA team should be able to carry at least half an "equal opportunity" roster. Likewise, the NFL, NHL, MLB and MLS (or whatever they are these days). Let's see Alabama or Ohio State devote half their football scholarships to other than male athletes.
These women need to take a lesson from their pioneering sisters, like Billie Jean King, who played against trannies like Renee Richards and emerged victorious!

Mental illness is now the norm. And another thing - I'm sick of the black individual on TV claiming he will make $10k less than a white person with the same skills. Truth is, he will probably prevent a white person from getting a job.

I still say the best form of protest of this lunacy would be for all the true-female contestants of any race that he/she/it/Lia competes to take their starting posts and prepare to begin the race. At the signal, all the true-female contestants remain on the starting point and let he/she/it/Lia swim alone.

Of course he wasn’t competitive against male swimmers. Had he been, we wouldn’t be talking about him. And she should be talking about him, not her and she.

They demanded it very loudly, scolding men in the process, and when they got it, they complain. Doesn't say much about their decision-making and planning skills, does it?

Wait til the trannies begin to compete in women’s NCAA basketball. And imagine the spectacle in WMBA. It actually may increase their ratings!

“Whenever women have insisted on absolute equality with men, they have invariably wound up with the dirty end of the stick. What they are and what they can do makes them superior to men, and their proper tactic is to demand special privileges, all the traffic will bear. They should never settle merely for equality. For women, "equality" is a disaster.”

Uncompetitive MAN pretends to be a woman so HE can "win".
Real women should refuse to compete if a man is competing. Just walk away.

Men dressing up as women, saying that they ARE women going into little girl's bathrooms, beating actual women in sports and going into women's locker rooms. Non woke men such as myself and others warned women that this would only get worse. Some listened but the majority of woke feminists told us to shut up this is normal and called us sexists, bigots and transphobes. Now that it's gotten out of hand you're complaining? Like the old car commercial said. You asked for it, you got it. Toyota!

It started when women sports reporters demanded to be allowed into football lockèr rooms after the game. "Oh, we've seen it all before, nothing bothers me." I always wondered if a man could interview her in the dressing room before the game.

The good news: she recognizes the insanity of what's happening and felt it necessary to speak out. The bad news: she feels so intimidated that she did so anonymously, and it's hard to blame her. Hopefully this nonsense will come to a head soon.
