Let me start this diatribe by first stating that I do not like women’s sports.  I do not like watching women compete in anything.  Not golf.  Not tennis.  Not basketball.  Not swimming.  It’s just me.  Not saying they aren’t good at what they do.  I just don’t want to watch women athletes.

And I was very much opposed to the 1972 Title IX law that forced schools to dump a lot of men’s sports so they would have enough money to provide athletic teams for women.

As a result of Title IX, any school that gets federal money must provide fair and equal treatment of the sexes in all areas, including athletics.

In 1972 there were just 30,000 women participating in NCAA sports, as opposed to 170,000 men.

Title IX was designed to correct those imbalances. It was designed to enforce equal access and quality. Women’s and men’s programs were required to provide the same resources to locker rooms, medical treatment, training, coaching, practice times and facilities, equipment, tutoring and recruitment. Scholarship money was to be budgeted on a commensurate basis, so that if 40 percent of a school’s athletic scholarships were awarded to men, 40 percent of the scholarship budget must also go to women.

Lots of women (not me) supported this law.  They marched and protested and wrote letters and screamed and hollered at the top of their lungs until Title IX became law.

I’d like to know where those women are today.  Why are they not protesting how this law has now become basically useless thanks to the requirement that allows men to compete as women in sports.  

Brain Dead Joe Biden gutted women's sports on his first day in office. He issued an executive order which forced any school that receives federal funding to allow transgendered students into the bathrooms, locker rooms and sports teams of their preferred gender.

This is insane — even for that demented senile fool.

I don’t care if God himself says that there are more than two genders - science will prove that there are TWO and only TWO genders.  Male.  And female.  And in case you did not pay attention in any of your health or biology or science classes in school as a former medical professional (I was a paramedic for seven years) I can tell you with certainty - THERE ARE JUST TWO GENDERS.  MALE.  AND FEMALE.

Each gender is different.  They have different DNA, different parts that have different biologic functions.  And men - whether they think they are women or not - whether they have developed their God-given abilities or not - are bigger and stronger and faster than the gals.  Men have a bigger lung capacity too which makes a HUGE difference in athletic competition.  There’s no getting around it no matter what dopey hormones you take or what body mutilating surgery you have done that will change that.  Unless you get a lung transplant.  

And yes there are differences within each gender as well….which is one of the reasons why there are weight classifications in such sports as boxing and wrestling. I know women (at least one of them, Dede) who can hit from the men’s tees, but not many.  Yet you don’t see women golf pros being allowed to compete in the mens’ tournaments.  

It’s not fair to girls and women who have trained and worked hard all of their lives to now be forced to compete knowing that if their is a biologic male in the competition the best they can do is come in second. No matter how fast they run or swim - if they are running or swimming against a biologic man, they’re gonna loose. 

If I were competing in sports today and had to face off against a man I would quit.  Period.  End of story.

Not playing that game.  Why would I even try knowing there was no way on earth that I could win.  Second is not what I want.  I would want to be first.  I would want the scholarships that come with being the BEST.  I would want to be on the Wheaties box.  

But….but….but….Biden and his progressive butt-kissers say we now have to be inclusive even if that means that once again women get the shaft (pun intended).  

So what I want to know is this -  where are all the title IX yammerers who got the law passed?  Why are they not speaking up about this unfair baloney?  

Not a peep out of any of them.  Well … a few. But most are afraid of being doxed for being “transphobic” - whatever that means.

Call me all the names you want.  I am not transphobic.  I am not sexist.  I am not racist.  I am not any of the “ists” the dopey lunatic liberals fling around at anyone who disagrees that there are more than two genders.  (There are only TWO genders.)

But I have a solution to this problem:  let’s have Title X - which would be a law that allows schools to start teams for transgenders.  Let them compete against each other.  Once that is even suggested you will see how quickly this nonsense stops.

The transgenders are out to make everyone kowtow to their “identity.”  

Well how about this - I identify as a race horse and I want to compete in the Kentucky Derby.  Where do I go to sign up?
