The GOP Must Act to Permanently Protect Women From Trans Ideology
‘I’m sorry, I cannot do this. I am a woman, and this is a man, and this is a women's tournament. And I will not fence this individual.'
This is what Stephanie Turner, the college fencer, said to Fox News in an interview about her refusal to compete against a man in a USA Fencing competition this past weekend. Her opponent, Redmond Sullivan, competed in fencing as a man until last year when he began identifying and competing as a woman.
Turner was expelled from the competition and USA Fencing issued a statement that dared to lecture about 'tolerance' and 'diversity' while ignoring the tolerance for Turner's views.
The United Nations, hardly a bastion of Right-wing ideology, admitted nearly 900 women lost medals to men.
No, let me rephrase: 900 women had medals stolen from them, their athletic careers, privacy, and safety having been sacrificed on the altar of transgenderism. That was October of last year; surely that number is north of 1,000 now.
High school volleyball player Payton McNabb was hit in the face by a boy during a match, suffering injuries that left her partially paralyzed with brain damage. She was recently expelled from her sorority for 'prejudicial conduct' for confronting a man in a woman's bathroom.
So I am grateful the Department of Education and the Department of Justice have created a Special Investigations Team to protect the rights of women and girls under Title IX of the Civil Rights Act.
It is President Donald Trump's administration doing this. Not Democrats. Democrats can only define a woman when they're pandering for our votes or urging us
Democrats voted unanimously against a bill that would keep men out of women's sports. Democrats fight to allow men into women's bathrooms and locker rooms. Democrats force teen girls to strip naked in front of boys who 'identify' as girls so as not to hurt the boys' feelings (the girls' feelings don't matter). Democrats embrace language that erases women and diminishes our dignity. Former HHS Assistant Secretary Richard (Rachel) Levin called women 'egg producers' and Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers called mothers 'inseminated persons.'
Girls who speak out -- like Turner, McNabb, and others -- are punished with expulsion from competitions or threats from school authorities.
Now it's time for the schools and organizations who violate Title IX to be held accountable. This task force is a good start.
Nearly a year ago, the Biden-Harris administration attempted to rewrite Title IX to not only include 'trans women' as women. This meant men could be in women's sports, locker rooms, and bathrooms and have access to scholarships and other gender-segregated opportunities.
There isn't a doubt in my mind a Harris-Walz administration would have ruthlessly enforced those rewritten rules and stripped schools of funding for failure to kowtow to the trans activist mobs. They threatened to let poor children go hungry if their schools didn't adopt trans-friendly policies.
Yeah, they're that petty and cruel.
This is why we mustn't tie the future of America's girls and women solely to an executive order. The GOP-led Congress must pass legislation making President Trump's executive orders on women's sports actual law. Failure to do so means the Democrats will codify trans rights into legislation the second they get power. The GOP should not let women like Payton McNabb, Riley Gaines, Stephanie Turner (and countless unnamed others) face retribution, criticism, and even death threats for standing up for their rights.
Such legislation shouldn't be a partisan issue. Thanks to the insanity of the Democratic Party, however, it is. And the GOP must continue to come down on the side of women.
Our girls deserve better than to have their rights, safety, and privacy depending on which political party occupies the White House.
