It was a place where modesty could be protected and the body respected. All this, however, has changed over the past few years as radical LGBT ideologues have forced more and more private and public institutions to allow biological men \u201cidentifying\u201d as women to use these private areas reserved solely for females. Indeed, these radicals have insisted that even biological males who have not had sex surgery and still retain their male anatomy be allowed to use these facilities with women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, girls and women have feared to speak up against this injustice for fear the aggressive transgender mob will tar them as \u201ctransphobic\u201d and cancel them on social media, get them fired from their jobs, get them de-platformed, and get their friends and neighbors to shun them, among other things. Indeed, when University of Sussex professor Kathleen Stock, an avowed leftist and lesbian, dared to defend womanhood against the radical transgender agenda, she was so harassed and threatened by the woke mob that she was forced to quit her job. And after feminist and Harry Potter author J.K Rowling likewise defended womanhood, the woke mob tried to cancel her on social media, doxed her, got the stars of the Harry Potter films to turn against her, and got her de-platformed from the 20<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary Harry Potter special on HBO. So the fear of speaking out against biological males using female rest rooms, locker rooms, and showers is real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One woman, however, has bravely decided to go on the record, albeit anonymously, to protest this invasion of female privacy. At this woman\u2019s college, the University of Pennsylvania, a biological male identifying as a female (Lia Thomas) has been allowed to participate on the school\u2019s female swimming team and to use female locker rooms and showers, <em>despite retaining his male anatomy<\/em>. Among other things, allowing this male to access intimate female spaces is causing angst among the female swimmers on the team. \u00a0As reported in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/news\/article-10445679\/Lia-Thomas-UPenn-teammate-says-trans-swimmer-doesnt-cover-genitals-locker-room.html#comments\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Daily Mail<\/a>, one female on the team stated: \u201cIt\u2019s definitely awkward because Lia still has male body parts and <em>is still attracted to women<\/em>.\u201d The female swimmer stated that female team members were rebuffed when they raised their concerns with the university:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;Multiple swimmers have raised it, multiple times. But we were basically told that we could not ostracize Lia by not having her in the locker room and there\u2019s nothing we can do about it, that we basically have to roll over and accept it, or we cannot use our own locker room.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The unfairness of the situation was palpable. The swimmer stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;It\u2019s really upsetting because Lia doesn\u2019t seem to care how it makes anyone else feel. The 35 of us are just supposed to accept being uncomfortable in our space and locker room for, like, the feelings of one\u2026The school was so focused on making sure Lia was okay, and doing everything they possibly could do for her, that they didn\u2019t even think about the rest of us\u2026 It just seems like the women who built this program and the people here before Lia don\u2019t matter.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Significantly, the female swimmer stated that the reason she was speaking anonymously, and why other people were staying silent, was due to their fear of attacks by the radical LGBT mob:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>&#8220;There are a lot of cowards who don\u2019t want to cause any kind of conflict or worry they might get looked at the wrong way\u2026If this gets bigger, I might go on the record, but I\u2019m definitely afraid. What I\u2019m afraid of is that potential employers will Google my name and see commentary about things I said and think, oh, this person\u2019s transphobic.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>So there you have it. Universities and most other private and public institutions are cowering before the radical LGBT agenda and allowing biological men to use the locker rooms, showers, and rest rooms reserved for women. Girls and women are having their legitimate concerns ignored and are fearful of speaking up because doing so could cost them, among other things, future employment. It is time for every person who believes in truth and free speech to boldly speak up against the radical transgender bullies to protect our daughters. If enough of us confront the transgender mob, we will win because they cannot cancel all of us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The swimmer has remained anonymous for fear of being cancelled by the LGBT lobby, but she states that Thomas is actually enjoying the attention.
