Last month a Vermont Christian high school forfeited a girls basketball game after they were scheduled to compete against a team that included a boy who identifies as a girl. Now that school has been banned from competing in any other competitions. Townhall reported on the incident that involved a scheduled tournament game against Long Trail School on February 21.
“We withdrew from the tournament because we believe playing against an opponent with a biological male jeopardizes the fairness of the game and the safety of our players,” Vicky Fogg, the head of MVCS, said in a statement.

Fogg? That kind of fits doesn't it? Follow God or follow man? Each has its cost. Choose wisely.

Where is the lawsuit against the Vermont Principals Association? Coming soon, I hope.

There is a simple solution to this problem. Don't designate the teams as men's and women's. Designate them as XY and XX. This needn't involve genetic screening of all would-be team members. Anyone could challenge the eligibility of a would-be participant, who would then need to take a genetic test to establish eligibility. It wouldn't be a matter of religion or what the would-be team member "identified as" Just a scientific genetic test.

This is right up the alley of the left. Instead of simply allowing the team to forfeit, there must be pain. Hopefully there is a lawsuit. I will be glad to contribute.

The left needs to quit being nasty to those that don't agree with them.

Wear the suspension as a badge of honor. I hope many more teams and individuals follow suit against this insane acceptance of mental sickness.

You want to play against girls you say? Fine, but first get it whacked off. Oh, you changed your mind? Good.

The DEI crowd can be pretty mean spirited. Their motto must be "Comply or else!"

Forfeiting a game raises the question of future reliability. The other schools apparently have no issue with the allowance. If a tranny shows up, he’ll play…and another forfeit if this Christian school is the opponent. Membership in a league means agreement to follow its rules. Maybe starting a league that bans trannies. Stand for your principles, but part of that is suffering the consequences without complaint, even expulsion.

Close to the middle of the last century, at Reserve Annual Training, we had a soccer game between the women of two units. The other team thought it would be funny to include a male player disguised as a girl.
When we discovered this, several of our team wrestled him to the ground. To keep him incapacitated without hurting him, we decided to take his disguise (aka his clothing) off. They refs called the game before it got really interesting. (That man had 3 pairs of sock on. What's with that?)
I think we had all seen the football game in the movie M*A*S*H and were inspired by it. We ended up with a complimentary 3-paragraph article in "Army Reserve" magazine.
It may take more than one, or even a few, women to bring a man down, but it didn't take the whole team.
Food for thought.

If this is allowed to continue it will be the end of women's sports in highschool, college, and possibly professional sports. WNBA, you wait. This could be happening to you very soon.

Vermont is not a state. It is a mental illness.

Dems delivered their message loud and clear. Girls will have to go along to get along or they will be punished. Males get to assert they "identify" as females and with that, they get to enter their male bodies into sports "competition" with females. This is wrong on every level. You do not have "women's sports teams" with male participants. You merely have an "arrangement" that specifically favors males and the expense of females. What kind of education system is that?
But even that is not enough for Dems. They demand naked boys be allowed to "share" showers and locker rooms with naked female athletes. There's the element of humiliation that accompanies this grotesque bureaucratic directive. We now have "professional educators" piling on the girls, trying to condition them NOT to set boundaries between themselves and biological males who claim to "identify" with a sex they have never been and never will be.

I have one problem with this article. What is the name of the school that allowed the man to play on a womans' basketball team? I would like to know.
And I would like to tell THAT school what I think of them. THEY should be taking heat.

Look who they send to DC to represent them and you will see why this happened.
