Another day, another story about a female athlete being denied an opportunity to compete fairly in a sport after having worked long and hard to develop the skills to get to a championship level.
In this case, the sport is college fencing. Take a look at this brave young woman's protest:
Female fencer takes a knee to protest against her biologically male opponent during a fencing match.

The opponent, Redmond Sullivan, switched from the men's fencing team to the women's fencing team at Wagner College last year.

The post continues:
...female competition after the switch was made.During the Connecticut Division Junior Olympic Qualifiers last year, for example, Sullivan competed with the female athletes and won. The video below reportedly took place over the weekend."Sullivan's female opponent was expelled from the USA Fencing event at the Univ. of Maryland over the weekend," reported ICONS. Video:
First of all, major respect for her for taking a stand (in this case, by taking a knee). It takes a lot of courage to risk being labeled all kinds of nasty things simply for refusing to participate in the delusion that has gripped society for far too long, especially when you're young.
It's outrageous that the female athlete had to be the one to put a stop to this nonsense:
Sick to death of this. Absolutely sick of it.

“How does this affect you women?”
Like this. Every time.
All males OUT of women’s sports. https://t.co/tPXhY6xpUP
Can you imagine punishing a woman for choosing to not fight a man in college sports?

What kind of upside down world are we living in?
I hate this.
Unfortunately, we don't have to imagine it because it keeps happening over and over.
And, also, unfortunately, there seems to be only one way it changes:
This is how it's done.

This nonsense only stops when every female athlete refuses to compete against males.
Good for her. Until all female athletes do this … this idiocy will continue. Would love to have heard what the dude said to her.

I hate to see her lose for her cause but it is a brave and necessary effort.

Well done.
We hate that she had to take a loss, too, but if you look at the big picture?
This was ultimately a win for this athlete and for female athletes everywhere.
