A few years ago, former University of Pennsylvania swimmer Will “Lia” Thomas made headlines for annihilating the competition in female races. Thomas competed as the men’s swimming team for three consecutive years before competing against women.
Over the years, Townhall extensively reported how Penn allowed Thomas, a grown man, to invade women’s private spaces and compete on the women’s swim team. Women bravely spoke out about this, even after the school’s athletic department went to lengths to try to silence them.
Last year, it was revealed that Thomas was part of a secretive legal battle in hopes of overturning a rule established by World Aquatics prohibiting males who think they’re “transgender” from competing against women.
