1/ More notes on the SC hearing.

The athletics exception exists in Title IX because it does actually serve the original purpose of Title IX and prevents larger sex-based discrimination.

When girls are forced to compete against boys and there are no female-only teams, female athletes have much less opportunity to succeed and participate in sport, as sex-based differences advantage male athletes, who would almost always be getting the roster spots and awards.

These sex-based differences are observable and immutable traits that we do not choose. 2/ While differences do exist between individuals, categorical advantage exists for ALL males, even those who are actually worse at sport than female classmates.

What male advantage means is that even if a male athlete is overweight or slow or handicapped in some way, even missing a leg, they are still performing better because they are male than they would be if they were in the same exact same circumstances but had been born female instead.

🧵And here we have CNN, yet another 'news' outlet putting out a puff piece glorifying a boy trying to force his way onto a girls' sports team.

No mention in the article of the accusations towards this boy of making inappropriate sexual comments and rape threats towards his female teammates.

Let's take a quick look... "Becky Pepper-Jackson, the high school sophomore at the center of the Supreme Court appeal on transgender sports, flashes a grin when asked to describe the basic technique of the shot put, one of her favorite track and field events."

"'It’s just throwing something that’s heavy,' the 15-year-old West Virginian said. “Far.”"

Boy confesses that he doesn't have any technique in the shot put (a heavily technique-driven event) because he has the muscles to simply throw it farther than the girls who train for years.

1/5 As the Supreme Court hearing approaches, here are a few sobering facts regarding boys participating in girls' sports in the United States:

At the collegiate, high school, and middle school level in the United States, at 105 least unique institutions bound by Title IX regulations have allowed male athletes to participate in competitions and on teams meant for female athletes.

At least 179 males have been reported, and of the 143 who are known by name, they have participated in over 2,971 events, winning at least 1,558 and placing top 3 in 889.

They have won 5 national championship titles, 43 state championship titles, 141 conference championship titles, 37 regional and sectional titles, and have taken over 242 invitational gold medals.

In all, they have stolen at least 855 top three medals at major championship and invitational meets and large tournaments. They have disrupted at least 2,029 top three medals, meaning up to 2,029 female athletes did not fairly receive their rightful gold, silver, or bronze medal or trophy.

As many state and national championship events award medals to 8th place, the total number of disrupted and stolen medals is much larger.

These men and boys have qualified for 42 national and 217 state championship events, depriving a female athlete or team their rightfully earned opportunity to compete in each.

They have set and reset "female" records at least 166 times and currently hold at least 125 unique records.

They have stolen at least 280 honors and awards meant for female athletes.

These numbers do not count the large number of male athletes who do not identify as "trans" who have participated in girls' sports in Massachusetts and Pennsylvania, who have also stolen awards, state championship medals, and have broken records.

To date, there has not been a single female "trans"-identified athlete participating in boys' sports who has been known to have won a medal, let alone a state or national championship title.


2/5 Some of the males participating on these teams include a 41-year-old man who was the star pitcher of a junior collegiate women's softball team, a 50-year-old man who set records on a women's community collegiate basketball team, several men in their late 20s and early 30s competing on women's collegiate teams, and at least 3 boys and men who competed on teams in direct violation of state law or regulations.

Several of the male athletes had competed on teams for men and boys prior to their identification as "women" and "girls."

Not a single one has won an equivalent conference, state, or national championship medal against male peers.

🧵If you thought 6'6" male athlete Robert "Gabrielle" Ludwig was the first middle-aged man in women's collegiate athletics when he joined the Mission College women's basketball team at 51 years of age, think again!

Another man had done the same over 20 years prior.

In 1991, the 'top pitcher' on the Hagerstown Junior College women's softball team was a heterosexual 41-year-old man who went by the name "Debbie" Keefer.

Keefer described himself as a 'a typical beer-drinking, head-busting type of guy' before he gave in to a transvestic fetish at 37 years of age and decided to mold his body to his 'female soul.' Keefer spent between an estimated $60,000 to $70,000 on surgery and electrolysis (which would be around $150,000 today), and decided to return to college to study nursing (naturally).

From the article:

"When Reefer decided to play softball this spring, there were a lot of questions. Was she eligible? Did her past give her an advantage over other women? Was she too old to play against 19-year-olds?"

"College President Norman Shea eventually gave her the OK to play. George Rillian, director of the National Junior College Athletic Association in Colorado Springs, Colo., said Reefer is the first transsexual to play at the junior college level."

🧵A very interesting case from the past has been brought to my attention. This is another reminder of how long men have been forcing their way into women's competitions and how the many women who have always been against it have been ignored.

In the 1980s and 1990s, a male bowler named Joseph Steven Sanchez changed his name to "Caren Park" and proceeded to win numerous women's competitions, set women's records, and stole an estimated $12,000 in prize money (equivalent to $30,000 today).

The USBC nine-game women's record Park set in the 1991-92 season was not broken until 2015 by Jessica Aiezza. She said this, seemingly unaware that Park is actually a man: "I was taken back by the longevity of the previous record."

Here is an article about Park (written out in the thread):
"Grumbles grow over gender-bending bowler"👇 "The question and the controversy have followed bowler Caren Park to every tournament."

"At lanes from Albany, Ore., to Seattle, members of the Ladies Pro Bowlers Tour have for years muttered privately that Park should not be allowed to participate in women's tournaments, even though [he] holds the state women's record for highest one-year average (228) and is the first woman to roll back-to-back 800 series in league play."

🧵As the year quickly winds down, I think it's a great time to recap a few of the major competitions men and boys who call themselves "trans" have won in the "women's" category of sport this year.

This is a very small fraction of the total of 388 competitions on record (so far) that they have won this year, and does not count the 255 times they finished in 2nd or 3rd.

🧵Well, I bit the bullet and read the article, and it's just as I expected, a meaningless sob story focusing on how hurt a boy feels being called out for cheating, ignoring the thousands of girls he disadvantaged, and elevating him as a victim instead of the guilty party that he is.

I would hazard a guess that you would be hard pressed to find similar articles highlighting men who have cheated in sport in other ways (steroid use, deflating footballs, lying about age) or articles about the lives of girls who have been cheated out of titles and awards, and we all know why that is.

Let's take a look at a bit of this. The article begins with a brief description of Garcia's circumstances, trying to elicit sympathy for this poor boy who doesn't get to eat Olive Garden breadsticks before his cross country meet.

It's unfortunate that families live below the poverty line in the United States, but it is a sad reality for many. This fact is entirely irrelevant to the issue at hand. Garcia's family being poor has no relevance to his decision to run against girls instead of boys. None. Zero.

'He's poor, so it's okay that he watched girls change and steal championships, and you should feel like a bad person for calling him out,' seems to be the underlying message here right out the gate, and it's nonsensical.

My father, like Garcia, also grew up in difficult circumstances. Unlike Garcia, he was unable to participate in school sports at all because he had to work after school so his family could buy groceries.

Again, call me callous, but I truly have no sympathy for this boy.

🧵When it comes athletic organizations in regards to boys in girls' high school sports, there are quite a few candidates in the running for the biggest loser, but I think that title rightfully belongs with the MIAA in Massachusetts.

I've already covered gymnastics and the 7 straight state championship vault titles boys have stolen

field hockey - another 4 state championship titles and a girl having her teeth knocked out

volleyball - 1 MIAA state, 1 vocational state championship

"trans"-identified athletes - one boy stealing 2 consecutive state champs in basketball, another smashing records in track, injuring multiple girls in basketball, stealing awards in volleyball, all while sexually harassing teammates, just to mention a few

along with countless other awards and titles that boys, both "trans"-identified and not, have stolen.

But there's one sport that hasn't been covered yet that needs to be mentioned: Girls' Swimming Per MIAA rules (that run in direct contradiction to the entire purpose of Title IX which gives female athletes opportunity to participate in sport), if there is no equivalent boys' team at a school, any boy may join the girls' team.

These boys do not need to identify as "trans" and may be playing other sports at the same school in the boys' division.

This includes all sports, but mainly occurs in those that typically do not see enough male participants for a boys' team, especially field hocky, gymnastics, and volleyball.

But another sport that has seen quite a few boys joining the girls' team is swimming.

🧵With plans for puberty blocking trials in the works, I think it might be a good idea to take a moment to examine one group of people who are pushing so, so hard for the chemical castration of children: their parents.

Parents of younger "trans kids" typically fall into one of two categories: extremely homophobic and unable to accept gender non-conforming behaviors in their children as it is a sign of homosexuality, or incredibly politically motivated activists who view having a "trans child" as a status symbol indicative of their virtue and who confuse their children right out the gate without giving them guidance or boundaries.

Here are a few examples from testimony written in on two bills in Wisconsin: AB 465, which ultimately did not pass, and AB 103, which is currently moving through the legislative process. First, we start off with a self-described "expert" in child development, Margaret Kerr.

Margaret says she assumed she had a three-year-old boy, but actually, she was mistaken, because her three-year-old, in all of his three-year-old wisdom, corrected the medical doctor's assessment of his sexual anatomy from the hospital and declared himself a girl instead.

Naturally, as an expert in child development, Margaret actually defers to the three-year-old, because no one has more expertise in child development than children!

Margaret notes that, after all, children know themselves!

Don't you feel silly now, knowing you were actually smarter and wiser and more knowledgeable about yourself at three than you are today?

1/ This is how it's done.

Following the news that a man had stolen the "World's Strongest Woman" title at the 2025 Strongman Games, the situation has been dealt with swiftly and decisively, the male athlete disqualified, and all awards and points reallocated.

It appears that the Games organizers were not aware that Jeffrey "Jammie" Booker was male, a fact he appears to have hidden from everyone including fellow competitors, and that his participation was in direct violation of the rules.
2/ "Had we been aware, or had this been declared at any point before or during the competition, this athlete would not have been permitted to compete in the Woman’s Open category."

"We are clear - competitors can only compete in the category for the biological sex recorded at birth. Official Strongman is inclusive and proud to run events which do not discriminate against athletes based on personal characteristics."

"Any athlete is welcome. But it is our responsibility to ensure fairness and ensure athletes are assigned to men or women’s categories based on whether they are recorded as male or female at birth."

"Given this, we have disqualified the athlete in question from the Official Strongman World Championships 2025. All athlete points and places will be altered accordingly to ensure that the rightful places are allocated to each of the Women’s Open athletes."

Bravo.

All athletes are included, just in the correct category. The women's category is for women.

This is how easy it could have been for every single instance we have seen to date.

🧵One final thread on the Pablo Torre podcast on Riley Gaines, this one focuses on the commentary Torre and his cohost, Madison Pauly, make on sexual abuse.

I apologize. It's a long one. Here we go... Torre first brings up a tweet that Riley made in response to Simone Biles calling women "bullies" for calling out men and boys in women's sport.

Gaines' criticism was that Biles was being hypocritical. Biles had suffered abuse from a male involved in her athletic career and had gone on record saying that she did not want any other athlete to suffer the same.

Yet, in 2025, she was calling girls "bullies" because they wouldn't pretend boys were girls, a belief that strips women and girls of their privacy in the locker room away from male coaches and athletes.

I'm not sure I have the energy to go through and pick apart the sham of an "investigation" that is Pablo Torre's "The Real Riley Gaines," but I do want to want to address this idea that Riley seems to have spoken out as all part of one big 'grift'.

Right off the bat, we're greeted with the minimization of and complete ignorance towards the issue.

Pablo seems to believe the issue of men in women's sports is a topic that has been around for only four years, and his co-host corrects him, saying she thinks 2020 is when "this all started." Males have been stealing opportunities in women's sports since the 1920s.

Women have been bullied into silence, threatened with expulsion from leagues, ostracized and called names, and pushed to the side while having to watch men stealing their awards, accolades, and opportunities right out from under them for over 100 years while the media has done their best to keep the voices of these women silenced while they champion the male athletes instead.

If these two have never heard the voices of women speaking out previously, they should probably understand the reasons why, and maybe then they'll understand the impact of what Riley has done.

🚨And just like that, the first TWO girls' state championship titles of the year have been unfairly stolen from female athletes by boys participating on what are supposed to be girls' teams.

As reported by @TomJoyceSports of the New Boston Post, the Oliver Ames volleyball and the Somerset Berkley field hockey teams have both won the state championship title in their respective divisions, each team fielding male athletes while facing all-female teams.
Junior Ryan Crook has led the Somerset Berkley field hockey team to a back-to-back state title (winning last year as well).

This is head coach Jen Crook's fourth state championship title. She has won all four titles using male athletes (her son Lucas in 2018 and 2019, and now Ryan) on the team.

Both Lucas and Ryan have been South Coast Conference MVPs and Lucas holds the school's all-time scoring record.

It doesn't seem like the state title means a whole lot when it seems to depend on whether there is a boy on the team or not.

Update!

HeCheated.org has added an interesting new page.

I've added the results from the men's division for male athletes who have competed in both the men's and the women's at the same level. Now these results can be easily compared side-by-side.

This page only includes results from individual sports like track and field and swimming, and excludes all DQ, DNS, DNF, relay events, and events in which the athlete was the only competitor.

It will shock no one to learn that of the 452 events these male athletes participated in against male peers, they placed 1st only 29 times, or 6% of the time.

On the other hand, after switching to the women's division, these same athletes placed 1st in 319 of 656 total events, or 48% of the time, despite competing in larger, more competitive meets.

hecheated.org/Results_male_c…


I have listed the number of competitors so that you can see how large or small the competitive field was for each event, which may impact placing.

Some of the more competitive meets have smaller fields, as they only accept a limited number of competitors. If an athlete was participating at the state championship meet, for example, it can be assumed they would beat any athlete in the entire state who did not qualify for that meet.

In competitions with more than 10 competitors, the number of 1st place finishes against male peers drops to just 7 in 333 events (2%), while in the women's category, they continued to excel, placing 1st 194 times in 485 events (40%).

🧵One horrifying aspect of the "trans" movement is that it pushes the idea that men pretending to be women always tell the truth, about themselves and everything else. It forces people to not only pretend that men are women, but that these men never lie.

Here's an interesting example: "Jenna Taylor" has made some interesting claims regarding women's sport.
Taylor makes quite a few conflicting claims, most of which seem to be outright lies.

He repeatedly claims that he ran track in college, on a men's D1 team, on scholarship no less, yet there is no record of him on any roster anywhere.

Especially odd considering he claims he gave up the Olympics to "transition." Surely he would have collegiate results somewhere, having been in college in the 2010s and Olympic tryout material.

Myth: "There are no 'transwomen' playing in the top leagues or on professional women's teams."

Fact: The following is a list of men who call themselves women playing at the professional level, on national representative teams, or in the top level league in their country where there are no pro leagues in the sport:

🧵With the recent revelations about men in the Women's Hockey Association of Minnesota (WHAM) I think it's past time I do a few threads on men playing in "women's" ice hockey.

WHAM is certainly not the only league putting female skaters at increased risk of injury and discriminating against female athletes.

First up, a bit of a 'historical' case but possibly one of if not the most well known, Michael "Jessica" Platt. In January of 2018, in his second season as a player on the Toronto Furies, a professional hockey team in the CWHL (Canadian Women's Hockey League), Platt publicly announced that he was actually a man who had been deceiving his teammates and opponents and leading them to believe he was a woman.

Platt was drafted onto the Furies in 2016, despite having no real prior experience, and played with the team until the league was dissolved in 2019.

🧵This is an older story, but one that seems to be circulating again in TRA circles, so let's break it down.
(link at the end)

"When 13-year-old Fischer Wells signed up for field hockey last fall, she had never played the sport. [His] parents were confounded."

"Fischer had run cross-country before and once tried out unsuccessfully for a street hockey team, but outside of that, the seventh-grader had not expressed much interest in sports."

Right off the bat, we're presented with the typical boy who joins a girls' team. Unathletic, never much showed interest in sports before he pretended to be a girl, was not able to compete well against male peers. "A month into the season, [his] parents were fighting for [his] right to play. The first games had been marred with challenges. First, there were not enough players, until Fischer recruited classmates to fill out the team.

Then Fischer’s stick was too short. Finally, through a teary phone conversation with the athletic director, [his] parents had learned the Kentucky High School Athletic Association’s rules would not allow Fischer to play."

Activists often parade Wells around as a boy who "started the team," but this is false.

What Wells did was convince some girls to join the team so they would have enough players.

He was aware from the beginning that this was a girls' team. His parents should have been reinforcing to him the reality that he is not a girl and helped him start a boys' team or organize friendly games at the park.

Instead, they encouraged him in a lie which obviously would only end in disappointment.

🧵"If you don't let "transwomen" play with women, they won't be able to participate in sports."

This 'argument' fails for two reasons.

1. It isn't an "argument." It's a manipulative threat. There is nothing stopping men from playing with other men, so when they say this, what they mean is: "If you don't let me play with women, I'll quit."

The statement above shifts the responsibility of their actions to not participate in sports onto women who want female-only sport when it really is just a personal choice.

Single-sex sports are not preventing these men from participating in sports. Their own egos are.

2. It's simply not true. When boys and men are barred from the women's category, if they truly enjoy the sport, they will participate with other boys and men.

A few examples: "Lorelei" Barrett switched back to the boys' team his junior and senior years at Buckley HS, likely due to the unwanted criticism he received for stealing a state championship berth from a female athlete his sophomore year.

🧵Naturally, Mr. Miller is missing quite a few pieces of important information in this statement.

He's using this to try to show that because there have been so few men in women's Olympic events, men who say they're women are on an even playing field to actual women in athletics.

Let's go through the issues with his argument one by one... 1. Prior to 2016, men were required to have had their genitals removed/inverted in order to compete in the women's category. Studies estimate that only about 10% have this done.

2. Men wishing to compete in the women's category also were required to show their T levels below a set limit for 12 months prior to the competition.

A man suddenly eligible in January of 2016 for the Olympics likely would not have been documenting those T levels for the Olympic competition (believing himself ineligible before) or have had his levels down for that time.

Realistically, the earliest Olympics where it would have even been possible to see any (just based on the numbers who were eligible per restrictions) would have been the 2021 Olympics...

1/ There is nothing so divisive in the world of protecting women's sport as the topic of CAIS, complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.

I have seen opinions on both ends of the spectrum on this, and would like to clarify my position.

This will be quite a long post, and probably the only time I will ever talk directly about CAIS. 2/ Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome is a disorder of sexual development (DSD) in which, like the name suggests, the body is completely insensitive to androgens (the "male hormones"), which are necessary for the development of male genitals and secondary sex characteristics.

To be perfectly clear, the individuals affected by CAIS are male. It is considered a male disorder.

These individuals are born with XY chromosomes, testes, and lack all female reproductive organs including the ovaries, uterus, and fallopian tubes except in extremely rare cases.
