This was well worth scrolling over Fox News headlines to see. A former University of Pennsylvania swimmer was interviewed by the news agency about Biden’s vow to protect trans right above the rights of women and a parent right to choose what they want their children exposed to.
Here is that statement:
“Such state laws are “simply wrong” and “hateful,” Biden said, adding that his administration is “standing up for transgender equality in the classroom, on the playing field, at work, in our military, in our housing and health care systems – everywhere.”
Biden told the parents of transgender children that “affirming your child’s identity is one of the most powerful things you can do to keep them safe.”
Former UPenn swimmer, Alexa Schwerha called for a national conversation on the issue in order to prevent the “death of women’s sports.”
“It’s very insulting because I know the hard work and the sacrifice that these ladies have put in to hone their craft and make it to that level of competition. I myself remember diving into that freezing cold pool every single morning and wearing chlorine as perfume and missing hanging out with family and friends just to shave off a tenth of a second from a lap time. But honestly, if I had to do it all over again, I’m not sure it would be worth it because the sacrifices were worth it when the competition was fair,” she told hosts Todd Piro and Ashley Strohmier.
Schwerha called the recent move to allow male-born athletes to compete against women, “an attack on women” and pointed out the physiological differences between biological men and women when it comes to sports.
“Facts have to come first. They cannot come secondary to some delusional reality. We know that men statistically are taller. They have a larger wingspan, a larger lung capacity, and this is very important when we’re talking about physical activities such as sports.”
Now that the woke movement has lost its canceling power, because people actually woke up, more women are coming forward to fight for women’s rights and the right to compete in a safe and fair environment. The days are getting brighter.
