The atmosphere when a trans swimmer controversially triumphed at the United States college championships last week was uncomfortable at best and I am amazed the sporting authorities did not act sooner to prevent it. 

I could see this happening when the International Olympic Committee changed the rules so that trans women could compete in the women's category as long as they underwent a very limited period of testosterone suppression. 

I would like Lia to be free to compete in a category appropriate to her biological sex and I want her to feel welcome when doing it, not to touch the wall to silence.
I have always wanted fair sport for females — they must have an equal chance of success in sport, where physiology is vital to performance. Bodies do sport, not feelings.

"This pattern exists because teacher pay is not differentiated," Goldhaber said over Zoom. Raising all teacher salaries would help schools draw more talented people into the teaching profession, he argued, "but I also strongly believe that across the board, pay increases do not make sense."

Thomas, 22, swam a 47.37 seconds - a personal best - only 0.10 seconds behind third-place University of Alabama swimmer Morgan Scott and one second behind first-place University of Virginia swimmer Gretchen Walsh.

The UPenn swimmer was met with near silence after winning the 500-yard race on Thursday. She has also had parents and Olympian Caitlyn Jenner, 72, among other former professional athletes such as tennis great Martina Navratilova, weighing in with their thoughts about her ability to compete in the NCAA championships.
An activist also claimed Thomas was 'not a woman' from the poolside on Friday. 

Otherwise you risk excluding young girls from their own sport at a time when it is imperative to both their physical and mental health. We already struggle to keep young girls engaged in sport. What's more, in contact sports this situation is a serious accident waiting to happen.

"The majority of children in the US learn in schools that replicate the dominant industrial model of education that was designed over 100 years ago to prepare most children to work in farm and factory jobs," Jenee Henry Wood, head of learning at Transcend, a national nonprofit helping schools reimagine education models, said in an email. 

I'm always careful in what I say. I stick to the facts, and I use peer-reviewed science. I never insult anyone or rise to any provocation. But I refuse to back down because it's an important issue for the next generation of young women. Women like my own daughter, Grace, who was an athlete.

Nelson's departure illustrates the compounding complications of the COVID-19 era, which are taking a massive toll on teachers nationwide. But the coronavirus is just the latest crack in a system badly in need of an overhaul. Teachers were already burning out amid ever-increasing demands to do more, with little support and with stagnating salary increases. Every year, fewer people are choosing to join a profession that's hardly evolved in 50 years, and vacancies are on the rise.

Thomas (pictured on Friday) will advance to the finals tonight, alongside Iszac Henig, a transgender male - who has not started hormone therapy, therefore, allowed to compete as a woman. It will be the first time they go head-to-head since the Ivy League Championships.

The superstar singer kept it short and sweet this time, teaming a wave-hem metallic mini skirt by The Attico with a printed hoodie by Awake NY, a Walter Van Beirendonck shearling jacket, a vintage Fendi bag and heels by her favourite, Amina Muaddi. Oh and a pair of crystal fringe earrings by Alessandra Rich to complete the look. Sensational, right?
