A teenage boy who identifies as a girl is heading to the Irish Dancing World Championships after placing first in the U14 2023 Southern Region Oireachtas competitions. Parents of girls competing in Irish dance are frustrated and outraged, saying that they cannot understand why a boy with physical advantages is allowed to dance against their daughters. “Oh, my gosh. It’s going to make me cry,” said one mother, whose daughter danced in the same competition as the trans-identifying boy in the Dallas, Texas, event. “I never thought I was going to have to deal with this. And my heart breaks for my daughter and the other girls

Comments:

This is one of the terrible outcomes of the feminist movement, which insisted that women could do anything men could. Now the men and boys say they can (and should) do anything women and girls can.

Holy Mother Machree, it gets even worse! FTA: In a statement to the Daily Signal, the Coimisiún Le Rincí Gaelacha, the governing body for global competitive Irish step dancing (recently under fire for “feis-fixing” allegations that teachers were bestowing sexual favors on judges in exchange for their pupils’ advancements), said merely: “CLRG is committed to creating a safe and inclusive environment for every child in our Irish dance community.”

This sort of thing is getting very very old. If the event officials do not fix it, the competitors or their parents will. Playing pretend with the mentally ill is not a good policy.

FTA: "I never thought I was going to have to deal with this." And that's where we are. People who just want to live their lives in peace are finding out that's not possible. If you want to keep what you have you MUST fight for it NOW.

FTA: "I never thought I was going to have to deal with this." QA different take. The feminist movement gave women a platform to voice their opinions and their opinions were not to be challenged. As an example, imagine men saying over and over, "Men don't need women. They are unnecessary". Women say that about men everywhere. So their sacred opinions were unchallenged. What segment of the population were most vocally in support of Gay rights? What segment tells us that feelings are important, more important than facts? Women encouraged transgenderism because they did not want to make them feel bad, unimportant or marginalized. Feelings never have to say sorry! So here women are now, being slapped in the face for their feelings of fairness in letting mentally unstable people do whatever they feel like. It is unfortunate that the mothers who cry for their daughters brought it on themselves

What I do not understand is this: Caucasians who wear dreadlocks are cultural appropriators but it is ok for people like Beyonce to have blonde straightened hair and it makes me a bigot to even mention it. If the character in a movie is supposed to be gay or a person of color, then only a gay person or a person of color may play that role, yet in the Broadway play "Hamilton" it is okay to permit actors of color to represent historical figures who were Caucasian, and it is okay for a gay person to act the role of a cis character. On the other hand, an individual born as a male only has to say "I am a girl" to compete in sports against "the weaker sex". I just do not get it.

According to the dems "the best woman for a job will always be a man". So like women were told this week "suck it up and lose graciously". This is supporting sickness and if you disagree you will be cancelled. Insanity. If at any event, it is discovered a boy/man in women's clothing then do not participate. Leave. Our best women athletes are being told to be happy with a participation certificate. Refuse delivery.

This problem goes away by simply insisting that any boy who wants to compete as a girl have his genitals removed first. The chicken only gives eggs for breakfast but the pig must be all-in for the ham or sausage.

It's the death of common sense. Women's sports are for biological women, who do not have the same stature or strength as biological men. A man declaring he is a woman is still a man biologically. He will still have a physical, biological advantage over women, despite hormone treatment. Hormone treatment didn't shorten swimmer Lia Thomas's arms. And it doesn't reduce men's natural upper body or muscle strength to that of a woman.

On behalf of the oppresive patriarchy I'd like to thank woke feminism for giving us the opportunity to seize total victory. We can now enter what used to be womens safe spaces with impunity. We can enter into what used to be their own sporting events and beat the snot out of them, and get praised by those same wokesters for doing it! And, standards of beauty have fallen so low, that we even take beauty contest titles from them. Total victory! OK men, let's raise those fish on a bicycle flags high and wave them proudly!

The evil mother who is abusing this young boy should be forced to undergo transgender full medical treatment and her child should be removed from her and no further contact permitted. All the other girl contestants should be removed from the Dancing Competition until all the abused trans boys are banned from competing. This is so evil.

No they can't, yes they can, no they can't yes they can, no they can't, yes they can yes they can! Just teasing, this whole issue is total BS. Just another Marxist wedge to destroy Western Civilization. Just as with these fake girls: when what you have to offer is inferior, destroy the competition. Or go where there is less competition.

The country currently is in the throes of an epidemic of mass insanity and irrationality. The manifestations of the disorder are too numerous to cite, but the explosion of the DEI plague being pushed by the government, many businesses, and the intellectual pigmies in most of the media, must be included in any list of the most egregious. There is a brand of this particular wokeness that is relatively unknown to the general public, but that is particularly irrational and dangerous.

I cringe every time I hear someone lament Trump’s rhetoric, for one cannot understand Trump and his goals without understanding his rhetoric and how it works. Ultimately, Trump left his life of luxury to save the country, and yes, you can believe him when he says that America will never be a socialist nation. The presidency was a mere means to that end. The Wall Street Journal wants Republicans to win the next battle; Trump wants to win the war. The key to understanding the tour de force that is Trump’s rhetoric, including his most inflammatory statements, lies in understanding that what he says is all calculated.

Not every member of Hamas wants to be a “martyr.” They have seen how valiantly the IDF fights, relentlessly hunting them down in the north of Gaza and now in the south, with ever greater ferocity, determined to make sure that Hamas will never threaten Israeli civilians again. So, being the cowards they are — perfectly pleased to burn alive helpless children and gang-rape, torture, and murder young girls, a but distinctly less eager to fight the IDF — many are now choosing to surrender. They know that the Israelis won’t treat them the way they would have treated any Israelis who surrendered to them; they will not be executed.

The president of Cop28, Sultan Al Jaber, has claimed there is “no science” indicating that a phase-out of fossil fuels is needed to restrict global heating to 1.5C, the Guardian and the Centre for Climate Reporting can reveal. Al Jaber also said a phase-out of fossil fuels would not allow sustainable development “unless you want to take the world back into caves”. The comments were “incredibly concerning” and “verging on climate denial”, scientists said, and they were at odds with the position of the UN secretary general, António Guterres. Al Jaber made the comments in ill-tempered responses to questions from Mary Robinson, the chair of the Elders group

This is not a good time for American higher education, but as bad as this may seem, matters are even worse. The students themselves are part of the problem when they seek admission to top schools with tactics that are at best questionable and at worst dishonest. Dishonesty is rampant. Students will even misrepresent their race or ethnicity. This is hardly a surprise in today’s academic world that prizes diversity, and admissions officers willingly lower standards to achieve it. According to one study, some 34% of white students admitted lying about their ethnic identify for purposes of admission or financial aid, with “Native American”

In the span of two days, numerous stories have emerged reaffirming that the Biden Pentagon’s top priorities aren’t winning wars or taking care of personnel but injecting leftist politics into the service and funding endless overseas conflicts. From requesting U.S. taxpayer funding for neo-Marxist programs to shipping more aid to Ukraine, the revelations (sadly) represent a continuation of the military’s “reimagining” under Biden’s presidency.

After the past week's Congressional hearings, the presidents of Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and the University of Pennsylvania are being exposed to an amount of publicity and scrutiny they're not used to and likely wish would go away. As we reported, the trio claimed that calls for genocide against Jews needed to be placed into context before deciding whether they violated student codes of conduct. The backlash was swift, and so was the backpedaling. UPenn's Liz Magill wasn't able to keep her job, though, and Harvard's Claudine Gay might not be far behind.

The Biden administration made two virtue-signaling proclamations at last week’s COP28 conference in Dubai it says will help save the planet from climate change. The policies aren’t likely to change the planet’s temperature by even one-tenth of a degree, but they might just destroy the 21st-century American industrial economy as we know it. First, Team Biden announced it will stop production of all new coal plants in the United States. This comes on the heels of President Biden’s Environmental Protection Agency saying this year it would impose new power-plant emission regulations that are virtually impossible for coal plants to comply with. The bottom line: no more coal. Period.

A judge on Friday certified a class action lawsuit that alleges that Disney paid 9,000 women less than their male counterparts. The suit is the largest ever certified under California’s Equal Pay Act, which makes it illegal for workers to be paid less for substantially similar work based on their gender. Lori Andrus, the plaintiffs’ attorney, applauded the ruling outside the courtroom in downtown Los Angeles. “Disney has been gaslighting these women for four years,” she said. “They love their jobs. They love the brand. But they want to be respected and treated the way they should be in the workplace.” Disney expressed disappointment in a written statement.

Following precise IDF and ISA intelligence, the IAF killed the new commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion, Emad Krikae. The previous commander of the Hamas battalion had already been killed by the IDF earlier in the war. Since 2019, Krikae had been the Deputy Commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion. He was previously responsible for anti-tank missile training in the Gaza City Brigade. Kirikae was also part of anti-tank missile fire and terrorist raids carried out inside Israeli territory. Following the elimination of the commander of Hamas’ Shuja'iyya Battalion during the war, Krikae temporarily assumed the position of battalion commander before also being killed by the IDF.

Other Iranian officials jumped in to clarify that Tehran believes all of Israel should be given to the Palestinians, annihilating the Jewish state. Amirabdollahian told a forum in Doha devoted to the Israel-Hamas war that a state of “Palestine” should be created via referendum, with “only descendants of those who lived there prior to 1948 being permitted to vote.”
