Adrienne,

You are exactly right! Now that women are finally getting the respect for their athletic abilities, the woke crowd, in effect, want to take us back to the 60’s , when we were fighting for title 9, now destroying the gains made by allowing transgenders(men) to enter women’s sports! Ridiculous on its face and completely obsurd any way you frame it!

Hopefully, more people will see this for the farce that it is!

Great column! Thanks for addressing this with your usual common sense reasoning!

Excellent summation of what's wrong with our athletics specifically and our society in general. You are correct. I have never watched a women's basketball game either college or pro, but I watched the last two games because of Caitlin Clark and her masterful basketball skills. Otherwise, I would not have watched. I watch all of the LPGA golf tournaments for two reasons. First of all, I have seen many of these young women play at Dalhousie Golf Club in AJGA tournaments in 2009, 2013, and 2021. I am a member and worked the tournament. Several of these young ladies are now playing the LPGA tour. The second reason is the controversy between the PGA Tour and LIV Golf. I have lost interest in the PGA except for the four major tournaments and have never watched a LIV Golf tournament. The demise of women sports is when transgender women start playing women sports. Thank you for your column, Adrienne!

Thank you for your feedback and your personal story. More of these stories need to be told. Hopefully, what Staley said will amount to nothing, but it's kind of scary when people who should know better don't.

Why would a transgender, i.e.a man, think they would ever be allowed to athletically play against real women? That is ridiculous. Very well written, as always, Adrienne. Xoxo
