My son’s girlfriend is a D1 swimmer. The sad thing? these girls are hostages to scholarships and thus afraid to speak out.

I would not use ‘she ’ to refer to this male swimmer. Pronouns refer to biology. That’s all they refer to.

I reread 1984 last month and remembered why I never liked the book: it scared me. Now it both scares me and depresses me because I am seeing it play out in America. So many foolish people remain silent and comply.

how i wish i could post this on twitter..but i cannot. once again i am banned and i WILL NOT APOLOGIZE for stating the obvious- a man doesn't "become" a woman by having plastic surgery and taking drugs anymore than I can "become" 25 years old instead of 60 from plastic surgery and drugs. It's called...wait for it...wait for it....SCIENCE

Question EVERYTHING the legacy media says. Not just COVID and "female" swimmers, but also the narrative on Ukraine. Especially the narrative on Ukraine.

Unless you like the idea of Thermo Nuclear War, which they all seem to want.

If a guy wants to think of himself as a girl, I suppose that’s none of my business. But I refuse to participate in any gender dysphoric fantasies. I don’t play the pronoun game.

So then Alex, stop buying into the lie and gaslighting of the left and call Lia what he is -a man. He. Him. I’m so tired of being forced to participate in the left’s delusional behavior! If he wants to swim on a women’s team, say no, that’s not possible. If he wants to start a trans team, he should go for it. But he’s not a woman and he shouldn’t be on the Women’s team of anything!

If lia can identify as a female , why can’t we all identify as quadruple vaxxed

It seems to me that the entire media glosses over--or avoids-- the real proportions here. Last I heard, less than 1 % of the entire US population "identifies" as transgender. Less than 5 % identify as Gay. All I want is a sense of proportion injected into any conversation regarding these issues. It's truly misinformation to exclude it.

Damn it, Alex! Lia Thomas is a MAN. I will use his new name because that is something he can legally change. However, HE has XY chromosomes, which HE cannot change. HIS pronouns are he/him/his. STOP amplifying the nonsense! DO NOT allow a group of loud, obnoxious people to capture our language.

Alex, I expected better of you.

I regularly "misgender" these mentally ill people because I will not have my language captured because to do so would require me to surrender my brain.

As for students laughing at public health "experts" on the subject of covid, the professor who contacted you should've asked these same students about "transgender."

I expect not as many would laugh.

(BTW, using "preferred pronouns" is NOT courtesy. It is abetting a lie.)

There is only one truth and that is Lia Thomas is a man. Stop using "she" to describe him. You insult real women by doing so. Stop playing the preferred pronoun game.

This is absolute insanity. The people that push this crap are sick fucks. There's no way in hell a large % of Americans support this crap.

Relating to this topic, I live in the seventh reddest district in the US. Someone posted the sexual education manual they're using in fifth grade and it spouted woke nonsense of gender being a social contstruct yada yada yada. The superintendent was not even aware of this crap and pulled it immediately. The people perpetrating this crap are evil and crafty. If it wasn't for a parent asking to see the material these sick fucks would have gotten to our children. Always be aware of what's going on in the classroom!

As a grandmother of an 11 year old boy and a 7 year old girl one of the scariest things I have heard is what Jen Psaki said yesterday: "Sex Reassignment Surgery, Puberty Blockers for kids is 'Best Practice', states preventing it will be held accountable."
