  • Subtitles section
  • Well, welcome back.
  • Leah Thomas made global headlines when she became the first transgender person to win a National College title at swimming, leading to outrage from the women she defeated.
  • She was ranked sixty fifth when competing as a man.
  • Well, three months after that win, she was banned from competing against biological women, but she's now mounted a legal fight to overturn the ban
  • and, potentially, the Paris Olympics in her sights.
  • I'm joined now by the former team mate of Leah Thomas, stand with women's spokeswoman Paula Scanlon, OutKick's CEO, play Travis, and political journalist and defender of the indefensible on these things, Ava Santina.
  • So, welcome to all of you.
  • Let me start with you, if I may, Paula.
  • You have competed against Leah Thomas.
  • In your estimation, how unfair is it that Leah Thomas
  • was allowed to compete against biological females and is now trying to seek legal redress to do so but potentially removing one woman from the women's Olympic team.
  • Yeah, it's incredibly unfair.
  • I think just looking at the situation, Leah Thomas was the tallest person on both the men's and the women's team at the University of Pennsylvania.
  • Just the height difference, the muscle difference, the length in bones, the body shape, and also the hormones that males have that women don't.
  • That was obviously a huge factor in Leah being much better than the rest of us.
  • To put it into perspective, the University of Pennsylvania has never had an NCAA female champion until Leah Thomas came around.
  • And I think that really shows that our program went from hardly ever having anyone qualify for the NCAA championship to having somebody win an event.
  • And you didn't actually compete against her.
  • I think you competed with her.
  • Is that right?
  • Yes.
  • I swam different events than Leah, but I was on the same team.
  • Right.
  • I mean, I've just seen some of the video clips from some of the races she was in, both when she competed as a man and then as a woman.
  • And the difference is just astounding.
  • I mean, in one race, she was winning by over fifty seconds or something crazy.
  • Yeah, and in that event, actually, the second place finisher was a University of Pennsylvania swimmer that lost to Leah by over two laps in the pool.
  • And if you were a member of the women's Olympic team for the United States, a woman, and you lost your place to Leah Thomas now, how do you think you'd feel?
  • I would feel terrible.
  • And in fact, the girls that Leah beat when Leah won the five hundred yard freestyle, the second, third and fourth place finisher were Olympians themselves, some of which having medals.
  • So it already happened and it would definitely happen in the Olympics.
  • And I think that would be a big scandal because it would affect not just NCAA athletes, but all women from all different countries that compete in the sport of swimming and also in other sports that they allow this to happen.
  • And they will also be affected as well.
  • Right.
  • Clay Travis, I've got a feeling in, like, ten years' time, maybe sooner, we're going to look back on this period of the existence of planet Earth and think, what the hell were we doing?
  • How was this insanity being allowed to happen?
  • And it'll probably culminate in a, you know, a six foot, six inch transgender athlete winning the hundred metres women's race at the Olympics by about fifty yards.
  • I mean, that's what's going to happen.
  • Yeah, I give credit to Paula for speaking out and being willing to point out how ridiculous this is, because I do think it's going to take women athletes more so than people like you and me, Piers, who can look at this and talk about how ridiculous it is.
  • But what we're starting to see is in America, at least, when Gallup pulls this issue, increasingly massive majorities of the American population are saying this is wrong.
  • And Pierce, I don't even think you have to focus on sex itself.
  • Obviously, men are bigger, stronger, and faster than women as a group.
  • And by the way, that doesn't mean that some women aren't bigger, stronger, and faster than some men, which is anecdotally how people will respond.
  • It is why we separate the genders at the Olympics.
  • I mean, if you made it gender... Totally.
  • Totally.
  • There would never be... If you had the woke dream of a gender neutral Olympics, can you imagine how many actual women, biological females, would win a medal?
  • I mean, literally, other than probably equestrian and shooting, maybe, that's it.
  • Yeah, that's it.
  • That's it.
  • There would be no women medalists.
  • That's why the separation occurs.
  • And by the way, Pierce, what I focus on is I coach little league sports.
  • I've got three boys.
  • If I showed up for twelve year old soccer and I had a sixteen year old kid on my team,
  • Every parent would say, no, this is unacceptable.
  • You can't do this.
  • Can't do it for baseball, football, basketball.
  • We have all sorts of changes to regulations.
  • You can't be trans age, right?
  • Like I couldn't suddenly decide that I'm going to be a little leaguer.
  • That's why they ask for birth certificates.
  • So you can go try to win the little league world series because otherwise people would cheat.
  • You know, and if I suddenly said, I'm coaching, I'm about to head as soon as I finish this interview, Pierce, I'm going to go to seventh grade basketball and watch my thirteen year old son participate.
  • If suddenly one of the coaches came out on the court, you know, six four and said, hey, I'm trans age now.
  • Sure, I'm thirty three, but I feel thirteen.
  • Everybody would think it was ridiculous.
  • It's just the very essence of sport itself.
  • Yeah.
  • Okay, Abe, I'm looking at you frowning away here.
  • Explain to me why this isn't just insane, that Leah Thomas, who, as we just heard, was not just the tallest boy in her college when she was competing as a biological male, but obviously the tallest girl as well.
  • How can any of this be fair?
  • I think, okay, so this is a really interesting topic for someone who is gender critical, because on this show before we have discussed puberty blockers and whether children should be allowed access to them when they are twelve, thirteen years of age.
  • Now, boys develop when they are twelve, thirteen.
  • The second that they start to have testosterone, that is when they grow bigger, they have a larger muscle mass than women.
  • If you don't want to see trans women competing in women's sports, then you're going to have to allow young children who do not feel, who are experiencing gender dysphoria, to have those drugs when they're younger.
  • No, not at all.
  • You are.
  • In my estimation, you do one of two things.
  • It's very straightforward.
  • This whole supposed insolvable problem is very straightforward.
  • trans women either compete against other trans women in an entirely new category as there are more and more of them competing or they compete against their biological sex because that is the biology they've been born with.
  • Tell me why that's not fair.
  • I don't think it's fair that people who've experienced gender dysphoria when they're growing up and don't feel that they are in the right body should not be allowed to compete in sports.
  • And if you're going to take away their rights... You go on about women's rights and a lot of the time I agree with you.
  • I want women to enjoy utter fairness and equality.
  • I think this is fair.
  • How can you possibly sign up to something that is so grotesquely unfair and unequal?
  • So women's rights.
  • Because Leah Thomas didn't wake up one morning and suddenly decide, I'm going to be able to win in the women's category, so I'm going to quit.
  • That's exactly what she's doing.
  • No, that's not what happened.
  • That's what she's doing.
  • Leah Thomas, she is a woman, and so she is competing as a woman.
  • She's a trans woman.
  • She is a woman.
  • She's a trans woman.
  • We can go back and forth on this.
  • She's a trans woman born with a biological male body, which gives her an immediate massive advantage over women who weren't.
  • So why aren't other members of her team happy that they're finally winning and qualifying for all of the things that they never qualified for before?
  • Because they can all see that it's unfair.
  • Is there not a little bit of jealousy?
  • No.
  • It's just they know that at some stage, Leah Thomas is going to probably win the Olympic gold medal.
  • Oh, no.
  • That would be awful for America.
  • That would be terrible.
  • Here's why it's terrible.
  • The United States women's soccer team, let's call it soccer for the benefit of this discussion, because they call themselves that.
  • Well, number one in the world, the best women's soccer players on the planet.
  • And they got beaten.
  • I think it was eight one by the Dallas under fifteen boys team.
  • Right.
  • That is the point is that it wasn't that the women's team weren't great as a woman's team at soccer.
  • It's to put them against a bunch of kids who are male with male physiology.
  • They got hammered.
  • OK.
  • That's why we separate the sexes.
  • So what do we say about trans women then?
  • Do we just say they're not allowed to play sport ever?
  • I just told you what we do.
  • They compete against their biological sex, which is perfectly reasonable and fair.
  • That's not reasonable.
  • It's perfectly reasonable.
  • By the way, solves the problem of the dressing room too and who gets taken with who.
  • Let's talk about all of those teenage years where they would have been seeking medical treatment and they weren't allowed access to it.
  • Now that's happening in the UK and it's happening very much so in the US.
  • People aren't being denied medical treatment when they would like to have it.
  • And then when they get to her age, you don't let them play sports.
  • You and I are going to come back to this when someone like Leah Thomas wins an Olympic gold, depriving a woman of winning an Olympic gold.
  • She is a woman.
  • And you're going to finally say, Piers, you were right all along.
