My daughter was given an assignment to write a paper on inequality. She chose men in women's sports. Her professor has informed her she can't use that topic. She may write about the inequality that trans women face in sports but not the inequality women face because of "trans women" in sports. Make that make sense.
Wow, this seems to have touched a nerve. A few things:
1. It's college sociology and it's a required class
2. My daughter isn't interested in blowing up her relationship with her professor in the beginning of the year if she doesn't have to
3. I will not give anyone the name of the school or the professor because the last thing we need here are accusations of "harassment" which is exactly what will happen if I do that. We all know many on the left can't handle free expression and my daughter doesn't need a target on her back because of who her mom is.
4. Thank you for all the offers to help. My daughter is taking some of you up on that and I'll keep you updated about how it goes.
College shouldn't be like this but it is. And hopefully, we can get some effort in the next four years to encourage intellectual freedom.
Here's the study her professor said she COULD use. Note how the topic is not about inequality but about "cisgendered" attitudes towards trans ideology. Forget women who are being pushed out of their sports. You're a bigot! psycnet.apa.org/record/2025-29…
This was the study she wanted to use. bjsm.bmj.com/content/55/11/…
Ok that was...fun? If I don't respond it's because I've muted this post now. Many of you have gone overboard on both sides of this issue and I'd like a break. Go hug your families and touch grass. Or tune into my show at 8pm. Should be fun. youtube.com/live/jFD3CkiXX…
UPDATE! The prof agreed to let her use one of the studies sourced by many of you so she is allowed to do her topic. I will let you know how it goes.
