It was just a couple of days ago when Dr. Jill Biden stuck her foot in her mouth and said she wanted Caitlin Clark and Iowa to join NCAA women’s basketball champions LSU at the White House. LSU’s Angel Reese is no fan of the first lady, saying “We’ll go to the Obamas.”
In was in that same interview that Biden marveled at how far women’s sports had come after the hard-fought battle for Title IX.
"It was such a great game. I'm old enough that I remember when we got Title IX. We fought so hard, right? We fought so hard. And look at where women's sports have come today."

Yes, look at where women’s sports have come today. The NCAA nominated a biological male as “Woman of the Year.” Girls who have problems sharing the locker room and showers with biological males are referred to school counseling services to correct their wrongthink. And now Dr. Jill’s husband is trying to change the rules under Title IX to allow more males on women’s teams.
The Biden administration proposed a rule change on Thursday under Title IX that would prohibit schools from “categorically” banning transgender students from athletic teams that are consistent with their gender identities. https://t.co/DK5saAKh7X

“We fought so hard.”
The political left has become a bunch of misogynists….

This is antithetical to what Title IX represents. This is the end of Title IX and the short time women have had any parity.

Patriarchy wins yet again!

Where are the women defending women… what we fought for! The real reason for TITLE lX!
Stand up and protect our girls, women in sports & scholarships.— Redlegwife13 (@redlegwife13) April 6, 2023
Pretending to be something you aren't in order to stroke their athletic egos shouldn't warrant an exception.

Girls, just walk out of any sport where they put a man up against you.
— Keen on Freedom #00F☒ (@wellboy) April 6, 2023
All biological females need to walk off the sporting arena when a biological male is competing with them. Make a strong statement
— Aileen (@LAH00335465) April 6, 2023
Why don’t we just make it easier and tell biological girls to not bother wasting their time and effort in training.
Let’s just go with an all gender category.

The trans community is using "identified gender" as their argument. So the solution is to get rid of "Men's" and "Women's" divisions and change them to "Born with a penis" and "Born with a vagina" divisions.

The Biden administration just killed Title IX. Girls will now be forced to relinquish their hard fought opportunities to entitled males playing make believe.

LOL I never would have guessed Title IX would one day allow biological males to displace biological females from competition. Sorry women with vaginas, you had a good run.

And just like that, women are erased.
— blark blark (@blarkblark) April 6, 2023
So I guess my daughter won’t be able to compete in women’s sports because she’ll be competing against men. Thanks a lot.

Then it is no longer Title IX. Biden hates women.

This administration is a nightmare

When is the first lady going to come out and say something stupid and offensive about this?

Update:
BREAKING: The Biden Education Department just dropped new Title IX rules that bar schools that receive federal funding from enforcing policies that ban biological males from playing girl's sports.https://t.co/3VdHJarPKc pic.twitter.com/DbOMioI5yL

The proposed regulations must undergo a period of public comment before they become law. It would ban schools from categorically students from competing with the sex they identify as but give room for schools to consider "fairness" for older students pic.twitter.com/WAAoc3VAk2

It’s honestly beautiful. For my entire life, Title IX has forced absurd amounts of money into women’s sports that nobody cares about.
Now title IX is being used to completely erase women from those sports.
What a time to be alive. https://t.co/p4YtFE7K4d
