Женская футбольная команда Вашингтонского университета уступила юношеской сборной
Женская футбольная команда Вашингтонского университета (Washington Huskies), являющаяся сильным игроком конференции Big Ten и занимавшая место в восьмерке лучших в прошлом сезоне, потерпела поражение в матче против команды мальчиков до 14 лет. Несмотря на разницу в возрасте и физической зрелости, юношеская команда смогла обыграть профессионально подготовленных студенток.Подобные тренировочные встречи часто проводятся для повышения интенсивности подготовки: игра против более сильных (с точки зрения скорости и физики) соперников помогает адаптироваться к более жестким условиям будущих матчей. Однако результат данного противостояния вызвал дискуссии о биологическом преимуществе в спорте.Подобные прецеденты уже случались ранее: в 2017 году мужская команда U-15 клуба «ФК Даллас» обыграла женскую сборную США со счетом 5:2, а женская сборная Швейцарии проиграла команде мальчиков до 15 лет со счетом 1:7. Подобные результаты часто приводят к спорам о справедливости участия биологических мужчин в женских спортивных дисциплинах.
U of Washington women's soccer team played a high school boys squad, and you'll never guess who won
The argument that men belong in women's sports took another shocking blow last week when the University of Washington's women's soccer team had a match against a men's team.Well, not a men's team, per se. It was an under-14 boys soccer team.Surely, the Division I power-conference team full of grown college women was able to easily dispatch a team filled with barely pubescent boys who don't even have their learners' permits, right?Uh oh! That's not a good look.WOMEN ARE LOSING THE SPORTS GENDER BATTLE. LET’S HELP THEM WIN THE WARTo be clear, the Washington Huskies women's soccer team isn't some also-ran either.This is a team that is fresh off a Big Ten Tournament win and made it all the way to the Elite Eight last season.And they lost to a team of boys.EX-ESPN HOST MAKES STANCE ON MEN IN WOMEN'S SPORTS CLEAR: 'WE KNOW THIS IS RIDICULOUS'To be clear, there's a reason the Huskies decided to schedule this game, too.Practicing against men, obviously, makes the games against other women's teams seem easy. It's like setting a pitching machine to 100 mph when you know the pitcher you're set to face tops out at 90.If you're shocked by this result, you're either way too far down the rabbit hole of trans indoctrination and gender equality in sports, or you just haven't been paying attention, because we've seen something even more egregious happen on the pitch before.If you'll recall, the U-15 FC Dallas boys team absolutely pummeled the U.S. Women's National Team by a score of 5-2 back in 2017 as it was fresh off a Women's World Cup win two years prior.There was also the time the Swiss Women's National Team lost to a U-15 boys team by a score of 7-1.CALIFORNIA HIGH SCHOOLER BEGS STATE OFFICIALS TO BAN TRANS ATHLETES FROM GIRLS SPORTS AT CONTENTIOUS MEETINGMany such cases.If you are still banging the drum that men and women, on the whole, are equal when it comes to competitive sports, then your head is buried so far in the sand that it's going to take a backhoe to get you out.It isn't contained solely to soccer, but we keep seeing these matches happen, and they're giving us a reference point for biological males competing in a female sport.And the results speak for themselves.ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH. TAKE THE DON'T @ ME PODCAST ON THE ROAD. DOWNLOAD NOW!Pushing the idea that men of any kind belong (especially biological men identifying as trans women) in women's sports is asinine, and it's causing more harm to women in the process.If you think a team full of boys dominating a college or even professional women's soccer team is bad, how about when they start letting biological men pound the crap out of women in combat sports?It sounds like a slippery slope until we are already halfway down the mountain with no way back up.Let this be yet another lesson: end the trans madness and nip it in the bud.
