Simpler solution:

Women’s division: ONLY biological XX women who aren’t doping.

Open division: Men, transgender women, transgender men, non-binary, shim, zhe, hir, donkey, whatever.

Let the men’s category be the dumping ground. Right now, men are self-IDing into the women’s category for easy competition and it’s disgusting.

This is an excellent letter.


The comments too make it clear the vast majority of people are on the side of biological women. As they should be.

People are afraid to say it loud for fear of getting “cancelled”, but the vast majority of people realize that letting biological males who have gone through puberty compete against biological females and thereby take titles and records from them is just wrong.

Totally agree. I can not understand how things have ended up here. It truly does feel dystopian.

Post the link. Torri is an American record holder and represented the US in the olympics last summer.

I also don’t understand what pride Lia Thomas takes in using the fact that she is a biological male to beat biological female swimmers. Lia, if you want to be considered a true woman, then you need to recognize that your pursuit of women’s swimming records and titles using your male biology to your advantage is the very definition of misogyny.

It’s insane and shouldn’t be allowed at the NCAAs.

It’s narcissism. She also compared herself to Jackie Robinson.

This is a goddamn disgrace. They put a man in the water and he is making a complete mockery of everything women have worked for.

Complete madness. Cherry picking for the easiest competition. Get these grifters out of women’s sports.

You exposed yourself with your militant anti-gay endorsement of ADF. No American agrees with you.

How is this fair to the women athletes who have worked hard and sacrificed to get to where they are? No biological woman will ever win anything again.
