Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner ripped the NCAA for its handling of the case of Lia Thomas, a transgender University of Pennsylvania swimmer who was born biologically male but competes on the women's team.
"They have to be so woke and say, ‘Oh, this is great,’ while down deep inside they're saying, ‘This is wrong,’" Jenner said, adding that those like the ones reported by Fox News had to speak anonymously about Thomas for fear of being canceled.
"It is wrong, and I'm very disappointed in the NCAA. They did kick the can down the road, but we have to deal with this issue. We have to protect women's sports. They've worked so hard for equality."Tammy Bruce of the Independent Women's Forum noted that Jenner has refused to participate in certain women's sports since transitioning because she understands the physical differences between people born male and people born female.
