Brilliant advice! Next time a young female athlete comes to me for advice, I will simply tell her to buy some “magic beans”, plant them in the ground, and wish upon them that she will magically grow to 6’2”, have a man’s hip to shoulder ratio, wingspan, body fat/muscle ratio,…

How about we just celebrate excellence and get rid of “women’s sports” completely? You wanna play, be good enough. Period.

“Disabled” by female puberty? This is the kind of thinking young women and girls are up against. Being female is now something to “evolve” past. Just gross.
@CarilynJohnson
It's sad that so many people have been disabled by female puberty, and even sadder that people are campaigning to ensure it happens to another generation of kids assigned female at birth.

This is what kills me. The narrative about “being kind” completely ignores being kind to girls.
The damage on the already poor mental health of girls who are being told repeatedly they’re not as worthy as their male counterparts to fair, safe & equal sporting opportunities is utterly disgusting in 2024! Stop ✋🏼 ruining sport for women & girls … starts just saying NO.

I thought I’d wake up and feel a little less “panicked” about the implications of the TitleIX rewrite, but, instead, I feel angrier, and more full of dread at what is in store for women and girls in the future. We have well, and truly, been sold out.

I sent my resignation letter to KKG after I found out they punished the young women who complained when a man was allowed to pledge their chapter without consent or knowledge, and then was seen aroused while watching them in the sorority house.
Telling young women they have to…
TOMORROW! I’m arguing on behalf of these brave ladies who said no, Kappa leadership can’t secretly add men to the sorority, without even ASKING the women.

It’s beginning to feel like a hostage situation. These young women are being forced to acquiesce to something that is harmful to them, or suffer suspension, “re-education” training, discrimination, and further lost opportunities. And, yet, people will still come on my TL to tell…

If I have to “listen” to one more argument on my TL where a TRA claims, “But transwomen aren’t DOMINATING, so you’re making a big deal out of nothing!” my head will explode!
What? We can only push back when men finally DO dominate women’s sports completely? Thousands of awards,…
If trans women are "unbeatable" in female sports, how did 8 cis women just beat a trans athlete, blocking her from the NCAA Championship final? In the lowest-division D3?
Wait, we thought trans women couldn't be beaten. So how...

Why, why, why is this still happening? And in climbing?! Superior upper body strength, greater wingspan, taller - all obvious, and apparent to everyone, inherent biological advantages of men in climbing. Sometimes I think we are just getting punk’d. And of course,

If you eliminate the women’s category in sport by letting it be overrun by men, you eliminate true competition amongst women.
When you do that, you eliminate women willing to train with you, do 6 hour long runs with you, stay up 24 hours in the middle of nowhere to crew for…

When I was a young prosecutor, one of the common “defenses” was to blame the abused. “Why doesn’t she fight back?! It’s her fault if she doesn’t stand up!”
It didn’t matter if she weighed 100 pounds less than her abuser, or had 3 kids, or no education. Everyone sitting in their…

Waking up to a “fight” on my TL that the “boy with the beard”, who is playing on three girls’ team, has every right to do so because of his “feelings”, while completely dismissing the feelings of EVERY SINGLE GIRL, is not how I wanted to start my Friday.

I regularly get asked, “Where is all the outrage? Why aren’t women speaking up?

Standing up for women’s rights is not hate.
Standing up for men’s rights is not hate.
Telling women they should give up their rights to men who want to appropriate their identities, their sports, and their safe spaces, and just “sit down and shut up” is.

This is what we are up against. They should just say women don’t deserve to participate in sports, because that is what they mean.

How anyone thinks this is fair is beyond me.
Not only does this man get the benefit of racing women in the hurdles, but he gets the benefit of jumping over the women’s sized hurdles.
It’s like they are in two different sports.
