The UPenn female swim team is actually female again, writes cwtremo.
The University of Akron’s Zippy Invitational swim meet occurred last week, and it was quite a different scene than it had been a year ago. Seven collegiate swim teams, male and female, competed against each other in the annual NCAA swim meet. But unlike a year ago, there weren’t any men competing as women.
The Zippy Invitational was the swim meet where Lia Thomas, the transgender swimmer from the University of Pennsylvania, dominated. Thomas's presence forced the world to have a conversation about men competing as women in women’s sports.As the best man in a pool full of women, Thomas swam to All-Ivy and All-American honors in women’s swimming. The incident catapulted the Ivy League school’s female swim team into the national spotlight.
One can be sympathetic to transgender people yet realize they do not deserve special treatment and are not entitled to take opportunities away from others because of how they identify. We should strive for equality, and that means making things fair for everyone. A man can identify as a girl as much as he wants to, but in an athletic competition, he should compete against his fellow biological men.
No matter what liberals, leftists, and Democrats try to do, we must make sure that women's sports are and remain female.
