New XX Sports NCAA ad

After scrutiny, the NCAA policy that was thought to protect female sports has a significant loophole. Entry to events is limited to what is shown on birth certificates. And of course, some state of the USA allow those to be changed. I first saw this mentioned a week or two ago and thought I would wait and see what happened.

However, the NCAA has said nothing so it seems that their policy is just weasel words. It excludes 'some' male people. I hope that the pressure will continue to grow to stop other organisations leaving this weakness exposed to allow some male people to access those events.

And here is a development in Washington state.

Sorry it is video about a girl misgendering an 18 year old male who played in the female team.

The whole concept of 'Misgendering' needs to be consigned to history. It is so damaging. Urg... that poor girl.

That NCAA loophole needs to be closed as well.

I am so fed up with all the lies and pandering.

I agree. And it seems to be teenaged girls who are being punished for this.

I honestly thought that many of these organisations were simply cowards - that they knew the truth about biology and the extreme detriment to females in allowing males to participate in women’s sports. I thought they were complying through cowardice, absolutely terrified to say no to transidentifying males and their allies.

It is now starkly clear to me that they are not cowards, because they would have taken the “excuse” of Trump’s EO and used it to justify removing all males from female sport (as they HAD to comply with the ‘anti-trans head meanie’)…

No, they are not cowards, they are far worse. They are misogynistic true believers who value and champion males (in whatever presentation they deign to display) so far above and beyond any lowly females, that they use this EO to underscore just how much they want to destroy women, and their dignity and rights.

Another video featuring these brave women. This one in response to the Nike Super Bowl ad.

This has shades of the two autistic girls, who were suspended by the FA, for asking men on opposition teams if they were men. I forsee this basketball team being in deep trouble, considering that Presidential EOs are Federally applicable and States cannot ignore them.

Punishing the teenagers is incredibly important. Then other teenagers see and are fearful and will comply with the demands of the disordered people wedging men into women's sport, changing rooms etc.
Get them young and all that 😡

That's something I've found very hard to cope with. Back in the 70s, I was disappointed that my male comrades never prioritised women's issues. They answered all my arguments by agreeing that women's issues were important and had to be addressed -- just not right now as blah blah blah was more urgent and had to be tackled first. It's been 50 years, comrades ...

But now the much more painful truth is unavoidable. No man has to pretend he cares about women's issues. Misogyny is rampant on the internet and in the real world, open and undisguised. Women's spaces can be invaded, women can be threatened and attacked, women can be banned from holding single-sex meetings, women's real (not imaginary) identity can be erased.

And yet, somehow, I still can't believe the men I campaigned with in the past, on political and environmental issues, actually hated women. When Germaine Greer said "Women have very little idea how much men hate them" I thought she was exaggerating. I suppose I mean I can't bear to believe it. Has male hatred for women increased over the decades? Or has it always been there, and, with our single-sex rights being so widely ignored and trampled down, they are now encouraged to express it?
