Maine deserves the punishment; you can’t continue to reward stupidity
"Another day, another instance of an unremarkable biological male athlete (who couldn't win against other males) dominating girls' sports. The Maine Principals' Association's blatant disregard for federal rules means that deserving, BIOLOGICAL girls have titles ripped away from them. This is outrageous and unfair to the many female athletes who work every single day to succeed in their respective sports.”
Allen Cornwall, a concerned coach from Scarborough High School, foretold that the pole-vaulter formerly known as John would clean up against girls' in the competition. He told the Maine Wire earlier this month that the 10th-grader was going to be the girls' conference "champion" and "state champion."
"These girls that have been competing for years, working towards this, are just being sidelined, and it's really disgusting.”
All BS aside, you really have to question how any school, league, or organization, far less an entire state, would even try to justify this. Men and women are different, and that isn’t a bad thing. It makes each gender unique, but in athletic competition, it needs to be segregated because of those differences. Men need to compete against men, and women need to compete against women in that way; both genders are honored.
Maine is now at risk of losing federal education funding for continuing to betray female athletes, defying President Trump's order, and violating Title IX of the Education Amendments established in 1972, and they deserve the punishment; you can’t continue to reward stupidity.
