Last week, a longtime USA Swimming official resigned from her position of 30 years , saying she could no longer work for or support an organization that would allow a swimmer with the physical advantages of a biological male to compete against women under the guise of “fairness.”
“I can’t do this. I can’t support this,” Cynthia Millen wrote in her resignation letter. “I told my fellow officials that I can no longer participate in a sport which allows biological men to compete against women. Everything fair about swimming is being destroyed.
Millen is right. The women competing against Lia Thomas don’t stand a chance. Thomas has crushed every female athlete in competition, breaking multiple U.S. women’s swimming records. In one race, Thomas beat the second-place swimmer by 38 seconds. A video of the race shows Thomas lapping opponents several times. As I’ve written before, that’s like expecting a teenage girl to be able to hold a block against a 250-pound male linebacker. It’s absurd.
