There’s still junk in Davy Jones’s locker, and the gals don’t wanna see it.
Whether you believe he is a she (he isn’t), or whether he/she should compete on the Penn University women’s swim team (he shouldn’t), all Americans can come together and agree on a single, simple truth: Lia Thomas is a selfish jerk.
Just ask Thomson’s teammates. Thomson’s teammates told some of the stories. Daily Mail that Thomas sometimes doesn’t cover her as yet unmutilated male genitalia. “While Lia covers herself with a towel sometimes, there’s a decent amount of nudity,” says the Mail. Swimmers say they “have had a glimpse at her private parts.” Uh, ew.
“‘It’s definitely awkward because Lia still has male body parts and is still attracted to women,’ one swimmer on the team told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview.” Apparently, says the Mail, “Lia has told her teammates that she dates women.”
So he is becoming a she so she can …? Whatever. The point is that the nudity is just another indication that Thomas doesn’t seem to give a water rat’s patootie about the actual women trying to compete in actual women’s swimming. These are the women who are Thomas’s ostensible team. (There isn’t an I in TEAM. But there certainly is in LIA.
“It’s really upsetting because Lia doesn’t seem to care how it makes anyone else feel,” the swimmer continued. “The 35 of us are just supposed to accept being uncomfortable in our own space and locker room for, like, the feelings of one.’
It is so disgusting. It is this world Penn and other woke elites have worked hard to create. Identity, victimhood and radical individualism without regard for character and morality are the result. After you have started down that path, all thoughts about the common good are lost in favor of pleasing the aggrieved.
This program seems to have no impact on the women behind it and all the other people involved. It’s frustrating, because Lia seems to not be bothered at all by the attention. She seems to enjoy it. This has affected us all far more than it has affected her.
Again, one sympathizes with Thomas’s teammates, but if ever there were a textbook case of conservatives (or just any rational people) deserving a big old “Itoldyaso,” this is it. Are the women able to fight back? But they can’t, and with very little chance of success.
“‘We’ve all tried to think of anything we could do, but I just don’t know what we could do that wouldn’t basically have us not be swimming,’ she said. ‘We already lost a year due to covid and people don’t want to put their own swim careers on hold.’”
In an era when people are using the word “performative” unironically, it’s impossible to know how sincerely Thomas believes his own shtick. Would anyone be shocked if Thomas’ college career ended and he never made the transition to Lia. Far-fetched? But not in this Age of Trans.
