I wonder why...Lia Thomas looks like he/she has the wingspan of Michael Phelps.

Lia is causing issues with her natural female teammates...

Quote:Sharing a locker room with transgender swimmer Lia Thomas has become a point of contention for some of her University of Pennsylvania teammates, who feel uncomfortable changing in the private space with someone undergoing gender transition, the DailyMail.com can reveal.

'It's definitely awkward because Lia still has male body parts and is still attracted to women,' one swimmer on the team told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview.

Lia has told her teammates that she dates women.

She said UPenn's handling of the locker room issue is emblematic of the school's overall approach to the Lia Thomas controversy, with school bending over backwards to make Thomas feel welcome without seeming to care how it affects her teammates.

She stated that team members have raised their concern with the coach, trying to get Thomas ousted from the female locker room, but got nowhere.

'The school was so focused on making sure Lia was okay, and doing everything they possibly could do for her, that they didn't even think about the rest of us,' the teammate told DailyMail.com.

'It just seems like the women who built this program and the people who were here before Lia don't matter. And it's frustrating because Lia doesn't really seem to be bothered by all the attention, not at all. Actually she seems like she enjoys it. It's affected all of us way more than it's affected her.'

The school released a terse statement last month that it was offering mental health services to student-athletes.

Thomas, 22, plans to break her longtime silence and exclusively share her story with Sports Illustrated, it was announced Wednesday.

The NCAA, which set rules allowing transgender athletes to compete after completing a year of hormone therapy, recently washed its hands of the row, announcing that transgender participation will now be determined by each sport's national governing body.

In Thomas' case, this would fall under USA Swimming, which is considering a new policy.

'USA Swimming firmly believes in inclusivity and the opportunity for all athletes to experience the sport of swimming in a manner consistent with their gender identity and expression,' USA Swimming stated last week.

'We also strongly believe in competitive equity, and, like many, are doing our best to learn and educate ourselves on the appropriate balance in this space.'

The swimmer who spoke with DailyMail.com welcomed USA Swimming's involvement.

'I'm actually happy that the NCAA passed the buck because USA Swimming is more conservative and they have stakes in the game,' she said. 'These are people who swam their whole lives, who have kids and daughters who swim, and they see what this is doing to the swim community.'

A Mess That Should Not Be

If this is allowed to continue, all women's sports will be ruined as men who couldn't deal with competing with other men will "identify as a woman" and simply dominate against women "born with the original female parts".

Hannah dominates in women's rugby

This is COMPLETE BULL$H/T.

mental illness.

We deserve to be conquered.

I think it is fantastic. They opened the door, now they have to deal with the cold air coming. F em. I hope this dude goes on to the olympics and sets every record possible by a swimmer.

I agree.....This is the opportunity schools have been waiting for since 1972. That Title IX nonsense has forced many schools to eliminate programs like wrestling or men's track, men's soccer, or in some cases baseball in order to comply with Title IX requirements. They have also been forced to add women's sports like field hockey, rowing, and competitive frisbee in an attempt to get women's numbers up. Now alls they gotta do is have their football team all identify as female, and bingo, problem solved. I mean the football guys won't have to cut their dogs off or nothin', they just gotta' check the box marked female. In our woke new world, how can it be questioned? And just like that your Title IX problems are solved!

That's genius. Still considered a mens sport, but I love your line of thinking! We can simply classify all sports as bisexual and call it done. Goodbye women's athletics. And thanks to the 51% of the population that is female that are apparently OK that. Sure, your daughters will never have a chance to win anything, but schools will save a ton on the fake women's sports they are being forced to offer now.

And you're right about not being allowed to question things. That would be "hate speech" to even ask if its true. We're just a checkmark away from ending multiple frauds by using the rules they enforce against them.

I wonder how much SI pays for an exclusive...

Fukker is just gaming the system and the system is too stupid to see it.

Time to use old-school tactics. Have a gal pick a fight with him and get themselves DQ'd
