It’s absolutely wild watching the hoops people are going through to pretend that women don’t exist. The stories the mainstream news is writing about the defiant women volleyball players is unreal. 1/
Here is ABC news trying hard to figure out what fair means. They can’t say that women’s sports are for women. So they have to twist themselves into knots trying to think how sports could be organized: without women’s sports actually being a thing. 2/
They quote someone as saying we are never going to be able to answer fundamental questions about fairness.
Yes. Yes we can. Women’s sports are for women. See how easy that is? 3/
Here they find someone who is excited about the idea of “science” finding out just how many drugs you should give to a man to make it fair for him to play on a woman’s team.
The answer is zero. Because men are not women. Women are not low T men. 4/
They are baffled how men and boys could play sports if they weren’t allowed on women’s teams.
I’ll let the readers of this thread come up with an answer to this one. Whatcha all think? Got any solutions? 5/
There is currently a federal lawsuit against the NCAA challenging them for letting men play on women’s teams.
Go ladies!! Go get women’s sports back!
Five teams have refused to play! They are standing up for all women athletes! Even giving up a championship chance.
6/
The new ridiculous argument is that bc some athletes are better than others there shouldn’t be women’s sports. I mean, people are different so why have women’s sports at all they argue?
Why indeed? Can anyone think of a reason? 7/
The argument boils down to this: if boys or men do something to themselves that makes it less likely they will win medals, then it’s only fair they should get to take women’s medals.
Yes. That is their argument laid bare.

THREAD. I think what’s shocking people right now is they had no idea folks could be so vicious. Some of us aren’t surprised by this. We have seen this behavior for years from them. Let me show you what has been said to people who simply say that men aren’t women. 1/
This kind of behavior has been building and building and building. Do you think this teacher got fired for his behavior? No. He got put on the cover of a journal.
This is now normal on campuses. 2/
People ignored us bc it was a “fringe” issue and it doesn’t “affect” people and why do we care? Oh sure, you noticed the sports issue for a minute, but you didn’t see how normalized it was becoming for them to speak violently. To BE violent. 3/
The Screenshots THREAD
I spent a 1 1/2 days taking screenshots of calls for more people to be next after Charlie Kirk. I’ll leave them all here together.
Please share. Follow. But most of all, save this. This is the history of this day when the posts are removed.
I decided to rewrite the Riley Gaines hit piece from the New York Times. Here is what it should have said.
A thread.
It should have said:
when Lia Thomas stood up on the starting blocks, everyone could see he wasn’t a woman. No one was fooled. The crowd was not happy. The most unfair race was about to start. 2/
Since that day Riley has shown incredible bravery. Imagine standing up to school officials that put a man into your changing room and into your sports. She has continued to stand up for women’s sports and young girls who have hopes and dreams. She is incredible. 3/
