“Title Nine” is a 1972 law that forbade discrimination against women in any educational institution in the country that accepted federal funding. In practical impact, it meant every school except Hillsdale and a few others.
The changes over time were dramatic – women’s sports, while never the equal of men’s in basketball or football, nonetheless offered opportunities for women to compete, get scholarships, and have their sports funded. I have watched women’s sports, and the competition is as intense as any male counterpart. But no one with any sense imagines that women and men should directly compete.
Athletics is a good thing. Athletics teaches the work ethic, a sense of fairness, sportsmanship (is that a “woke” word?) and self-reliance. There should be opportunity for all kids to participate at some level.
I was slow to come around on Title Nine, as were many people. But I did so. I now understand that women need be given every opportunity that men receive. It’s not only fair, but the right way to behave.
So I read now that dozens of students walked out of classes in protest of the Penn-Delco School District policy that allows males to use women’s bathrooms if they claim to be female. Women rightly feel their privacy invaded. The claim they make is simple: Whatever organ you were given at birth should determine which bathroom you use. They do not want some faux-female hanging out his dong in their presence.
As the old curse goes, may you live in interesting times. I think it is professional and legal discrimination to allow any male making any claim to use a female restroom. What ever happened to privacy? It strikes me as legal insanity.
It gets worse, as men claiming to be female can dominate in female sports, notably track and field. Women cannot compete with men who have stronger bodies and faster feet. Women criticizing this practice rightly claim that their rights are set aside, and everything that they have fought for since Title Nine took effect is slipping away. It is back to a male-dominated world in sports.
These arguments are so simple and correct that I get frustrated that we can never make any progress against “woke” culture. School administrations and the courts are enforcing this insanity out of … fear? Of what? Cancellation?
All I can say to the weak-kneed administrators and judges is … grow a set.
Piece of Mindful 
I remember some crap about Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts in the not so distant past.
There’s a reason why it’s called boy and girl, whatever (sports, restroom, etc.)
To get around all that… suddenly boys can be girls and girls can be boys.
Pitting humans against humans all part of the agenda
All part of the control.

My guess is they’re just pushing the Overton window on transgenderism, and part of that involves intense trolling provocation..
I caught a snippet of the Rush Limbaugh replacement Buck Sexton the other day. He was railing against this sort of thing, but made sure to throw in something about how of course they should be treated with respect and human dignity, but blah blah blah.. whereas, the whole concept, would have widely been viewed as mentally ill, or absurd or whatever, a generation ago.
They’re just playing around with the “dialectic,” imo, to get people used to the whole thing. They expect and welcome laughter, derision, shock, irritation, etc. I guess they’re old hands at reprogramming everyone, so this is child’s play to them… rule by trolls, would that be a trollocracy?
And who knows what is in drugs, vaccines, food that may make current and especially younger generations more “gender neutral.” The psywar proceeds apace with chemical bombardment and covert dysgenics.. I’m 45 myself, but I have no way of knowing what I’ve been exposed to in vaccines or the food and water. I’m not confused about my gender, thank you, but maybe I’d be much MORE masculine if free of all those chemicals. Maybe I wouldn’t have allergies, or other issues that may be subclinical but still impact your health and well being.

The body is a magnificent thing to behold, and on its own cures any invader and discharges toxins. It does not need or benefit from vaccines. Doctors are useful for injuries … they’ve had centuries to perfect strategies for wounds inflicted by gunshots and bombs. There is no such thing as mental illness, but there is stress, usually induced by self-infliction or abuse by teachers or superiors. I am told that 84% of kids now think their future is jeopardized by climate change, a remarkable achievement by the propaganda and educational system, and child abuse, highly immoral, writ large.
In 2012 I took a vaccine for lung diseases costing several hundred dollars. I was a tool at that time. Since that time I have taken no medications of any kind save an occasional Temazepam for sleep. I was given pain medicine for hernia and torn tendon repair, but did not use it. I have taken no vaccines of any kind since then even as a new young doctor and PA practically begged me to save myself, the doctor (for other reasons) on on his knees in front of:me.
When bitten by an aggressive dog on a hike last summer, I sought no medical care and did not even ask if the dog had received “his shots,” as I knew my body would repair the wounds and that I was in no danger of rabies, which does not exist. I even comforted the young couple who owned the dog, assuring them I would be fine and that they were in no financial danger. I was not going to seek expensive emergency treatment nor would I sue them. Shit happens. I must have reminded the (rescue) dog of past trauma. I did nothing to threaten it in any way. The couple gave me some first aid. The wound healed naturally. I merely kept it clean.

I’m in full agreement with all of that, I just wonder if each generation has been progressively targeted with vaccines, ultrasound, industrial food etc in a planned dysgenics operation. Huxley’s chemically created caste system, scientific dictatorship. Combined with propaganda suited to the new type of humans being created. You have huge flashing warning signs of spikes in all sorts of diseases, but the people running the show never get alarmed that it may be their own interventions and innovations. Instead they double down on them, and blame the public for their faulty genetics, or poor health choices lol.

This guy seems to be doing useful reporting.. Here he breaks down the PR budget for industry vs anti-industry forces. So many people seem to be under the impression that “obviously, of course” all the money is on the side of oil companies and industry. His article and charts tell a different story that more people need to hear.
