Biological Male, Lia Thomas, National Champion, Women’s 500 Freestyle
This tweet from Philosopher Kathleen Stock about her book Material Girls, and the erroneous ideas that put swimmer Lia Thomas on the Podium.
if you want to understand the ideas that put L. Thomas on that swimteam, or male rapists in women’s jails, or made mothers “gestators” (etc etc) grab it now.

Back in the day, females were not allowed to participate. But for decades now, they have enjoyed the benefits of competitive sport. Today we are on the verge of regressing.
The NCAA, Ivy League, and the University of Pennsylvania pressured female athletes indirectly and/or behind the scenes to stay quiet about the injustice of allowing a male to compete in the women’s category. You can read about that in a previous post.
Well, I hear these three ladies, loud and clear. Can you?
Biological Male, Lia Thomas, NCAA Champion, Women’s 500 Freestyle
These three gals are sending a courageous message to the rest of us.
In the photo below the real women’s national champion, Emma Weyant, receives encouragement from her coach. Weyant was the Silver Medalist in the 400 meter Individual Medley at the 2021 Tokyo Olympics. She is a world class female athlete. And she just finished 2nd to a guy that ranked #462 as a male swimmer.
In February over a dozen of Lia’s teammates sent a protest letter to the University and the Ivy League. Here’s a portion:
Lia has every right to live her life authentically. However, we also recognize that when it comes to sports competition, that the biology of sex is a separate issue from someone’s gender identity. Biologically, Lia holds an unfair advantage over competition in the women’s category as evidenced by her rankings that have bounced from #462 as a male to #1 as a female. If she were to be eligible to compete against us, she could now break, Penn, Ivy, and NCAA Women’s Swimming records; feats she could never have done as a male athlete.
Letter Sent to U. Penn and Ivy League (2-3-2022)
Up till now, few well-known female Olympians have spoken out about this “unfair advantage.” Corporate endorsement pressures no doubt contribute to their silence. Or a fear of being called a bigot. But we need to hear them roar as well.
Katie Ledecky, and others, time to get in this game. Women’s Sport is bigger than one person.
Western Cultural Imperialists from a wide variety of Western governments and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGO’s) are grooming the children of Africa.
They teach children as young as 10 years old from a training manual that includes a comprehensive list of “Sexual Patterns and Behaviours.”
The list includes the patterns and behaviours you might expect, plus some you might not:
Voyeurism: Sexual excitement from observing others undress, making love, kissing, petting or masturbating. Sometimes voyeurs are called “Peeping Toms”.
Gerontosexual: Sexual pleasure from elderly by a young person.
Paedophilia: Sexual pleasure by having sexual intercourse with children.
Paedarasty: Sexual pleasure from young boys.
Zoophilia/Beastiality: Sexual pleasure from animals
Urophilia: Sexual plasure from urine.
Coprophilia: Sexual pleasure from filth such as faeces, dirt, or soiled underwear.
Sadism: Sexual pleasure from inflicting pain to another person.
At the end of which the students are taught some very important cross-cultural perspective.
“IMPORTANT!Some of these behaviors are acceptable in some cultures while others are considered as deviant in some cultures….”
I could be tempted to wager a small sum that not one of these “patterns & behaviours” will be described by a Sex-Ed trainer as deviant in all cultures. Wouldn’t that risk the evil of stigmatization? If you think I’m being overly cynical, read this.
I do hope the children were not left to ponder that question on their own. But what is the purpose of including some of these? Do you get a ”warm fuzzy” about the reason for those inclusions? I don’t. These materials were to be used with 10 year olds! They will also learn how to properly use an anal sex toy should the need arise.
Well, here’s the video. Take a look for yourself.

You wonder why countries in the non-Western world have a problem with Western values related to human sexuality?
You just saw one very big reason. Sex-saturated Western Entertainment media and the “dark caverns” of the Internet would be two others. One need not be a sexual prude to be concerned about this cultural imperialism.
