If this individual is dropped from the team then its lawsuit time. They will be sued for discrimination against Tue transwhatever peoples.

From the article:
"...By then, men's coach Kevin Tyrrell had already gathered the team to talk about adding Bailar.

"We talked about how we're all about character and values, and I kind of gave my two cents: If we're going to say that we care about others, then this is something we should consider," Tyrrell said. "And basically all the guys said, within 15 seconds, 'Yeah, let's do it.'..."

Had any of those teammates so much have vaguely suggested Bailar simply swim at the club level he would have immediately been viewed as a social pariah and ridiculed on campus...led by the administration.

Remember, no free speech on campus permitted unless it adheres to a very specific and orchestrated script.

This is the end of women’s sports.

I used to get confused about whether a trans-Man was a poor miserable person going woman-to-man or man-to-woman.

The easy way to figure it out is to always read "Trans" as "Fake".

For the record, I am sorry she destroyed her sexual/reproductive physiology, and I would support having the surgeon's license pulled for unethical conduct, plus fines and/or jail time for the whole medical team.

“and Bailler dives into the pool for the last leg of the Four Way Relay and a sure Ivy league title. Bailer’s fading. Fading. Fading and Harvard comes in dead last.”

I am gravitating more toward the Independent Fundamentalist Baptist viewpoint that women should not participate in sports.

All the guys on the team were all in favor of adding this person to the team??,,Really???

Yeah. She can call herself a he all she wants, but all the guys are going to see is a naked woman in the shower scrubbing her "package" after the game!!

That's why the college kids support the homos. The guys get to watch the the few lesbians on campus do it [lesbians crave attention and admiration (even if it's really mocking)as much as the male homosexuals (negative attention is better than getting no attention at all)] . Everyone gets to watch the male freak shows for free (people used to have to pay the circus good money to see these freak shows back in the old days. )

It can be entertaining and/or very humorous for a 16-25 year old to watch these creatures pretend to mate. Most collage students are straight and just want to have fun.

Silly me. I thought we were done with this insanity once the old Soviet Eastern Bloc fell.

Wonder what the uniform she’ll wear will look like. Just bottoms like most men wear?

This sinister regime has elevated the creatures with baser human sexual instincts to the top of the national dialogue to make the nation think that our country has lost it’s moral compass...it’s a deception of the highest degree and it only works for the mentally weak and easily despaired.

Replace the worry with laughter at their attempt.
