When I post photos like these people say, “why don’t the women just refuse to compete?” It’s not that easy. Often their entire scholarship is tied to their athletics. They can be threatened with expulsion. They can lose out on med school or law school. 1/

They can lose a job that is promised but dependent upon graduation.

People don’t realize just how much power is being wielded against these women. It’s enormous. So much so that college women got naked in front of man due to the threats. 2/

Can you fight the entire school, the DEI requirements in businesses, the President of the United States? He signed an executive order on day one that effectively ends women sports by being inclusive of men. If men are included it isn’t women’s sports any more. 3/

I don’t know if people know just how much power is in play. Students will shout at you, threaten you, mob you if you dare step out of line. It’s not like what you remember school to be. And the administrators will be behind the students doing the threatening. 4/

Women are being brave beyond brave and speaking out. They have people threatening to murder them when they do. Just for saying women should have their own sports. 5/


This common memes have made the rounds. 6/

And this is an academic publication where the professor on the cover is holding a fake? gun, finger on the trigger, in an obviously threatening manner. This was published by Duke University Press years ago. 7/

Now imagine being on campus and facing all THAT.
