The End of Women’s Sports
Selina Soule was one of the top five female high school sprinters in Connecticut… until competing against biological boys changed the game. Now, women aren’t just losing their races — they’re losing their chances to compete at all. Why is this happening? And what should we do about it?

Script:
I’ve been training to be a championship sprinter since I was eight years old. With the help of my parents, my coaches, and my teammates, I did it: By sophomore year of high school, in 2018, I was one of the top five female high school sprinters in Connecticut.
But then, one day, I wasn’t.
At the state championships that year, two people passed me—passed all of us girls. Literally. They finished first and second in our races, dominating the field.
Were they more motivated? Did they train harder? I don’t think so.
But they did have an edge—a big one we couldn’t match. They were biological boys who said they were transgender girls.
Do you think that’s fair—males competing against females?
Before you make up your mind, let me tell you a bit about what it took for me to become a top female sprinter. It meant training with my team every day after school for at least two hours, working to shave fractions of a second off of my time in the 100- and 200-meter dash.
It meant not hanging out after school or going out with friends on the weekends. It meant getting up early every Saturday morning, and competing all day at a meet. It meant not indulging in any of the things that might cost me my dream.
And here’s the thing about the two biological males that took the top two girls’ medals in the State of Connecticut: Their times were not even good enough to qualify them to compete in the state championships on the boys’ team.
Let me say that again, in case you missed it: Their times were not good enough to qualify them for the boys’ state championships.
But two years in a row, they won first and second place competing against the girls. All in all, these two biological males won 15 women’s state championship titles.
Some in the media have accused me of being a sore loser. They tell me to run harder. But the biological changes that males go through during puberty are so significant, they gain an insurmountable advantage in strength and speed. That’s why boys always competed against boys and girls against girls.
U.S. runner Allyson Felix is an inspiration to me. She’s the fastest female sprinter in the world. Her lifetime best for the 400 meters is 49.26 seconds. But based on 2018 data, nearly three hundred high school boys in the U.S. alone could beat that record.
What we are talking about, then, is not just boys taking women’s trophies—though they are. And we aren’t talking about biological boys taking women’s athletic scholarships—though they’ll do that, too. When biological boys are allowed to compete against girls in sports like track, where the differences in performance are so great, we are talking about girls getting shut out—never getting the chance to win, or even compete at all.
When two biological boys took the first- and second-place spots against me in the 2019 indoor state championship, I lost the opportunity to participate at the New England championships. I lost the chance to be scouted by top coaches, possibly even to win scholarships.
Right now, biological boys are being allowed to set records on the girls’ team—deleting girls’ records, erasing the achievements of actual girls, and setting a standard probably no girl can meet no matter how much she trains or how hard she tries.
The reason that we have girls’ sports in the first place is to give female athletes with talent, hard work, and dedication an equal opportunity to shine and be recognized. But girls will never have that opportunity if they are forced to compete with biological boys in sports like track and field, softball, volleyball, or basketball.
Women fought too hard, for too long, so girls like me can have the opportunity to compete on a level playing field.

“A trans woman student-athlete is not permitted to compete on a women's team until after one year of testosterone suppression treatment. Ongoing monitoring of treatment and written documentation is required for student-athletes undergoing testosterone suppression.”
-Wikipedia
Fun fact: Men have no athletic superiority to Females
Womens sport's doesn't exist under patriarchal tradition.
Trans are banned under patriarchal tradition.
Return to patriarchal tradition.
Agreed, but I don't like Prager u!
This was what 2nd wave feminists, radical lesbian feminists (Mary Daly, Alix Dobkins) has been telling others for decades. Men in drag taking over women's sports and facilities. THIS NEEDS TO BE STOPPED. And for the asshats here saying feminists weren't doing anything. They were. I'm also wrong to have thought that they didn't.
I was a staunch mocker of feminists for the longest time but I was a fool to not realize that this scenario was actually a possibility. The more I look into it the more I realized that liberal, misogynistic, men in drag were trying to fool women into complying with them. It's disgusting. Men, women, may they be LGB or whatever cannot ruin other people's rights. This isn't what women worked hard for. This isn't what OG LGBs worked hard for. The twisted left manipulated everybody.
This not a problem. This is the consequence of a problem that you guys supported for. And you can't back down now.
Some may say it’s biology but that’s not entirely true because not all men are good runners and there’s always someone that is better than someone else so a lot of it does have to do with training or a genetic advantage.
I remember a girl in grade school that was always a faster runner than me.
What is even worse is that Caster Semenya, who is a South African olympic sprinter was banned from the olympic games because of her ‘unfair advantage’ of having more testosterone than the average woman and this rule only applies to her events. Caster Semenya’s medical condition is beyond her control and Trans-women should have their own category. Whatever your beliefs are this is double standards.
this is a joke. it cannot be true. lies
This is so absurd to me. I'm gen x and my generation would see those men competing against women as shameful, how could they even hold their heads up high by beating a girl? Millenials were our little brothers and sisters, I don't care how they're incorrectly portrayed, I would suspect most Millenials believe this is just as absurd as I do. This needs to stop.
We say “biological boys” as if there were another kind. They’re simply boys.
Trans girls are men with girl clothing on, point blank…. Several years ago a trans girl fought a known accomplish MLA female fighter and cracked her skull with a punch. People said she was Transphobic and tried to silence her because she said she never been hit so hard before in all the years of fighting females. Even Bruce now "Catherine Jenner" state that the trans female swimmer was just taking it easy while competing in women's swim team. It's crazy that what is right is wrong and what's wrong is right. Sometimes I listen to the news and all of this trans stuff feel like Saturday night live script. This doesn't since real that we are debating one of the most fundamentals to live is what a woman? This is crazy 😧
This is one of the few issues I agree with Prager on.
Did people in her school really tell her "a girl is to be seen, not heard"? If a teacher said that, they need to be fired. If a student said that, they need to be suspended.
My mom is a Trump hater and she even agrees with Selina on this issue
This is the sickness of leftism. If they can’t convince women to destroy themselves through feminism, they’ll do it by forceful pretense. They subjugate women one way or another.
You do realise 99% of these claims are bs and are not backed up by peer reviewed studies
Connecticut, huh? My home state! I’m glad that this blue state has some red roses! Keep fighting for your rights! You’re a talented human being, regardless of your sex! But in a women’s sport, only other women can play! So, keep standing up for your boundaries! I’m proud of you! Don’t feel threatened by those boys! You’re doing your very best!
I don’t look at men versus women, I look at individuals. Of course men and women are physically different, but sometimes in more than one way! Sometimes, a woman IS stronger than a man! It’s a case-by-case circumstance. That’s not the core issue. The core issue is that biological males do not get to lie about their sex. It’s not about advantages versus disadvantages to me. It’s about the TRUTH, and it’s about respecting the boundaries of the sport! If it’s a women’s sport, men can’t play. Simple as that. If men WERE allowed to play, the name would have to be changed to co-ed sports. And such sports do exist! Certain cross country events, for example, as well as track and field! If you work hard and do the best that you as an individual can do, you’ll never feel threatened by anyone else. Because your individual performance is all you can control. Having said that, men can’t compete in women’s sports. So either boot them out or change the label from “women’s” to “co-ed”. That’s my piece.
This feels transphobic and misogynistic
i dont think these people understand the difference between men who say they are women to be predators, and men who were assigned male at birth, and no longer men, but instead women because they are transgender.
also i find it amusing that they only talk on the topic of trans women and not trans men. if you want to argue, include both sides of the story
💀💀💀
Men are better at being women than women are.
If girls would stick together and refuse to compete against these idiots, it will eventually come to a halt. No one wants to race by themselves. A guy would look like a fool out there all alone. I think they would call off the event if the girls refused to cooperate.
It’s so heartbreaking seeing how people think trans women have the upper advantage in sports but that’s not true. once they start taking hormones they start to lose some of their strength they had before they transitioned and many trans women aren’t even a threat to their fellow women, they just want to be themselves. However thanks to transphobic and homophobic people LGBTQ youth are attempting end their lives because of the discrimination they’re facing.
It really upsetting to see how sociality thinks this way of their fellow citizens. We’re no different from the cisgenders and heterosexuals. If you still think that God still hates the LGBTQ community then I’m sorry to break this to you but you’re dead wrong. God loves us all equally and cares for us all no matter if they’re a terrible person or a kind soul.
This is for all my fellow Bisexuals, Homosexuals, Pansexuals,Trans men and women friends, Non binary pals and everyone apart of this lovely community. If you’re facing discrimination of any kind. Stay strong. Life will get better. It might take awhile for life to be good but it will happen. It’s like what my dad always says “Before it gets better, it’ll get worse.”
Anyways later folks i got to continue on my studies lol i hope everyone who reads and is a respectful to the LGBTQ community will have a great year ^^🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️❤
Dear Delusional Lying Stubborn Narcissists:
Accept the fact that you cannot change your ancestry, you cannot change your date of birth, you cannot change your place of birth, you cannot change your race, you cannot change your sex, & you cannot change your species. It is not bigoted, it is not bullying, it is not hateful, it is not hurtful, it is not threatening, and it is not transphobic it is just the truth because the truth does not care about your feelings whether you like it or not. So accept it, get over it, and come back to the real world. This is coming from a normal young man myself born in 1998 from the younger generation who lives in harsh reality not delusional fantasy period end of story.
It's twisted. Gender is no longer rooted in biology but instead now falls under the heading of social constructs. So theoretically, you can be whatever you want to be and this will soon expand beyond gender into the realm of animals and possibly even inanimate objects. The insane asylum has opened its doors.
