Common sense is making a big comeback, especially today, with President Trump signing another executive order to ensure that sports competitions meant for female athletes actually are for women. The order states men are barred from participating in women’s athletic divisions and that entities that "maintain policies, practices, rules, or regulations that permit biological males to compete against biological females or vice-versa in athletic activities violate Title IX and are subject to enforcement action which could include the loss of federal funding."

It’s amazing that such an executive order is necessary, but it is. The Biden administration, in concert with Democrats in Congress and across the country, has been waging an all-out war against female athletes. Around the country, male athletes have been gaining access to competitions that were meant for females.

I experienced this first hand when the NCAA allowed Lia Thomas—formerly Will Thomas—to swim at the Division I Women’s Swimming and Diving National Championships. Three years prior, he had competed on the men’s team at the same university. Not only did Lia Thomas win a women’s DI national title, robbing that honor from many female Olympians and American record holders, but he was allowed to dress and undress in the women’s locker rooms. The female athletes did not consent to undressing alongside a fully intact male exposing his male genitalia, but the comfort and safety of women were not high up on the NCAA’s priority list.

WOMEN ARE LOSING THE SPORTS GENDER BATTLE. LET'S HELP THEM WIN THE WAR

We female swimmers were told not to complain and to step aside to make way for the male swimmer celebrating his new female "identity."
