Fantastic!!! Very well written!

Thank you for speaking truth Jennifer!

Yes, more in women's sports need to as well. Your encouragement to them and exhortation is needed. That is how this ends.

Imagine if all the swimmers refused to swim when Lia Thomas showed up. That's power.

I know many were surprised and thought their school would have their back, so in no way do I blame them. But now, everybody knows. Now the women are prepared and need to speak the truth loudly and say NO.

Wow, Jen! Thanks for sharing. I really needed to read these words today. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall and seen/heard how the audience reacted. Really glad you're speaking up about this and seying everythiing - especially that thing.

Great speech and very inspirational. Yes, find your hill: children, free speech, body autonomy, freedom of religion. Speak up and at the cowardly woke mob!

The war on the female is real. Biological males competing in women's sports is just a part of it. The bathrooms, the changing rooms, the forced tolerance women have to exhibit. Furthermore, we hear a lot about the sports issue, but the gender fluidity contagion is impacting females much more than males, as males make up 20% of the transitions and females 80%, according to Simon Esler in his film Cut, Daughters of the West.

And when you get into the background of all of this, it is almost not believable. But it is happening and happening fast.

I was one of the lucky ones who got to be there for this story and it was everything you’d imagine it to be. Strong, powerful and inspirational.

“Why is this the hill your willing to die on?”

“Freedom of speech and children? Why aren’t you?” Amen🙏

What a tremendous way to motivate us to take care of our children and to stop this abuse.

Thanks for speaking out. Too bad I have to say it this way because in the past the truth was always the accepted way to go.

Thank you for having the courage to speak the truth on this subject! Too many people with a voice are too cowardly to risk the cancel-culture mob. But you've been through hell a few times as a consequence of doing the right thing, so obviously you know your way back out!

Sadly lying is very easy. Preaching truth is hard. The world is upside down. Bravo to those who decide to climb the hill of truth. You make a better world for BOTH WOMEN & MEN, despite the pain of getting to the top of that hill.

Thank you, Jen! Your courageous spirit of speaking truth through the abuse in the athletic world, the mishandling of Covid and now the transgender movement harming girls encourages us all to be brave! We need warriors to stand up and protect children and women!
