National Organization For Women Faces Criticism For Hypocrisy In Stance On Trans Athletes
State of the Union ^ | 5/16/24 | Evelyn Thomas

Posted on 05/19/2024 5:37:59 AM PDT by Libloather

Skateboarder Taylor Silverman criticized the National Organization for Women for claiming advocacy for fairness in women’s sports is white supremacy.

Silverman said this was a desperate attempt to scare people into silence and erase minority women’s experiences.

“I take the National Organization for Women claiming that fairness in women’s sports is White supremacy about as seriously as I take them claiming men can be women,” Silverman stated. “They are blinded by this lie and desperate to scare people into silence. Men in women’s sports impacts all women, including minorities that the National Organization for Women seemingly want to erase to push their ridiculous narrative.”

She has competed against biological males, losing placements twice.

“I’ve never seen so many oppression buzzwords in one sentence. Apparently, advocating for fair sport makes me a white supremacist. I wonder if my attorney will agree. (in case you were wondering, NOW stands for National Organization of Women lol),” Silverman wrote on X.

"I think that the whole idea that we need a Transgender Day of Visibility is ridiculous because I agree that people who identify as trans have a lot of problems. I don’t think visibility is one of them,” Silverman said.

Silverman’s remarks came after NOW slammed a lawsuit against the NCAA over transgender athlete policy as perpetuating white patriarchy rather than ensuring equality.

Defenders said NOW no longer supports women. Silverman previously objected to Biden acknowledging Transgender Day of Visibility on Easter as disrespecting Christians.

“Go to a women’s sporting event, like a skateboarding contest, and you’ll see that they have no problem with visibility.”

All of this BS is just an attempt to push the “overton window” so far left that simply accepting gay marriage will seem “reasonable” by comparison to men in women’s sports.

This is easily solved ….. three divisions of competition — Women’s, Men’s, tranny’s

The “Overton Window” these days looks like a window in an insane asylum.

NOW supported Bill Clinton when he raped a White House intern.

They have ZERO credibility with regard to women’s rights. They are simply supporters of the communist party over anything else.

To compete in women’s athletics, the competitor must have no testacies

A male eunuch should not be able to compete in women’s sports.

I don’t remember them saying a peep when Clinton humiliated Hilary with his concubine in the Oval office, either.

They’re the mouthpiece for the Commies. Their main platform has been abortion, now it’s the anti-white rhetoric.

If a male wants to compete in women’s sports, he may not really want to do so as a eunuch

All the NOW cows in America could fit together in a phone booth. They refuse to disclose their membership numbers and are little more than a handful of aging nags with an email domain.

I remember walking through the DC Mall during a NOW demonstration about 25 years ago while I was in uniform. The women all glared at me while I passed through and I realized that they were mostly lesbian couples. I don't wish to brag, but back then I usually had a much more positive reaction from women.

Captain Obvious, please answer your phone.

Couldn’t agree more. They’re in our faces 24/7!

Socialist Organization of Women, or SOW 🐷 is a better description.

There are no “Trans” athletes. There are in fact, no transgenders or transsexuals at all. There are, however, growing numbers of people who are infected with delusional, insane, and malignant personality disorders. The collapse of the Biblical sex ethic has precipitated this generational curse. It is destroying our civilization and cannot be reversed without national repentance. Stand and Fight!
