I'm amazed that all female athletes aren't screaming about this, but they're probably too cowed by the PC mob
/Second U Penn swimmer speaks out (anonymously) about the transvestite swimmer who’s breaking records
A second female swimmer from the University of Pennsylvania has aired her frustrations and fury as her transgender teammate Lia Thomas continues to smash records.
The entire team has been 'strongly advised' not to speak to the media and the second swimmer has been granted anonymity.
Nevertheless, the teammate stepped forward to tell how UPenn swimmers are 'angry' over what has been perceived as a 'lack of fairness' as Thomas smashes record after record in the pool.
Thomas's winning time was 15:59:71, with her UPenn teammate Anna Kalandaze coming second with a time of 16:37:44.
Thomas's win was a record for the Zippy Meet, and the pool where the event took place. But she also managed to smash two US women's swimming records during earlier races at the same event.
The second anonymous swimmer to speak out over Thomas' performance has said Penn swimmers were upset and crying as they knew their times were going to be obliterated by her.
'They feel so discouraged because no matter how much work they put in it, they're going to lose. Usually, they can get behind the blocks and know they out-trained all their competitors and they're going to win and give it all they've got,' the source said to Outkick.
'Now they're having to go behind the blocks knowing no matter what, they do not have the chance to win. I think that it's really getting to everyone.
'Usually everyone claps, everyone is yelling and cheering when someone wins a race. Lia touched the wall and it was just silent in there. When fellow Penn swimmer Anna Kalandadze finished second, the crowd erupted in applause.'
What stings the swimmers the most is that the records are being set by a swimmer who didn't even make the first-team when she was competing as a man in the All-Ivy league during the 2018-19 season.
However, as a woman, Thomas broke 500-yard freestyle with a time of 4:34:06 last Friday at the Zippy meet. She raced to victory 14 seconds ahead of Kalandaze - the swimmer she beat by 38 seconds on Sunday.
And then on Saturday, she won the 200-yard freestyle in 1:41:93 - seven seconds ahead of her nearest rival, giving her the fastest female US time ever for that race too.
It's the first season Thomas, who was formerly named Will, has competed in the swimming meets as a transgender woman. As Will, Thomas competed on the men's team for two full seasons.
Last weekend, she won three events and set three new school records, including two new Ivy League records.
“I think secretly everyone just knows it’s the wrong thing to do. When the whole team is together, we have to be like, ‘Oh my gosh, go Lia, that’s great, you’re amazing.’ It’s very fake.”
The anonymous source who spoke to Outkick claims that after the race, Thomas could be overheard bragging.
'That was so easy, I was cruising,' Thomas is alleged to have said before bragging in front of her teammates 'At least I'm still No. 1 in the country,' while claiming she was unhappy with her time in the 500.
'Well, obviously she's No. 1 in the country because she's at a clear physical advantage after having gone through male puberty and getting to train with testosterone for years,' OutKick's source said.
'Of course you're No. 1 in the country when you're beating a bunch of females. That's not something to brag about.
When this insanity began some years back, I looked up and posted here the statistics on all-time record track times for high school boys and adult female runners: over 100 boys had faster times than the fastest women, faster even than Florence Griffith Joyner. As more boys realize that they can get college athletic scholarships from succeeding against girls, we’ll see far more of this happening on high school teams, and continuing into college. Real girls ought to be mad as hell.
(What a shame that “Walt” is no longer with us to comment on this issue. His daughter Meghan is the super-swimmer who set just about every record in the state, and broke many national records from the time she was about 8-years-old. She’s now, I think, swimming for Stanford. Can you imagine Walt’s take on “Lia” breaking Meghan’s records? Damn, Walt, we do miss you.)
Of course, there’s historical precedent for this phenomenon:
UPDATE: No reason for them not to be rappers, though, like Lil Nas X (the things you learn from browsing the NY Post)
