Awokening 3

(cont'd from last Friday's post)

Woke values require that all of us be pushed and coerced into saying things that we all know are not true (as in last Friday's video). Fairness is one of those values we all aspire to, but it's sacrificed and violated when female athletes are forced to compete with physically male athletes.

A high school girls track meet this month illustrates the point. King's Christian Academy girls put in a winning performance, but they were edged out of first place by Seattle Academy because one "girl" on that team has a male body with its typical advantages.

It's the same unfair situation that Riley Gaines faced when she competed against the transgender UPenn swimmer, Lia Thomas. Sports is a primarily physical competition, and competitors should be qualified on physical terms, not emotional feelings.

Riley tweeted that the girls and their coach were threatened "not to say anything/act up on the podium or else they would be suspended ruining their chances of going to State. Parents were warned not to wear political shirts. A coach got suspended for yelling "fair sports for girls."
