Former Members of UPenn Women’s Swim Team File Lawsuit Over Having to Compete With Male Teammate
“damages for pain and suffering, mental and emotional distress, suffering and anxiety, expenses costs and other damages against the NCAA, Ivy League, Harvard, and UPenn due to their wrongful conduct”
Remember, when some of these young women complained a few years back, they were basically just told to deal with it.

Ex-UPenn swimmers file Title IX lawsuit for having to compete with male teammate
Former members of the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn) women’s swimming team recently filed a lawsuit against the institution, Harvard University, the NCAA, and others for allowing Lia Thomas, a male who identifies as female, to compete against women.
The lawsuit was filed by Grace Estabrook, Margot Kaczorowski, and Ellen Holmquist, who have each graduated from UPenn and competed alongside Thomas during the 2021–2022 season, as reported by The Daily Pennsylvanian. The former swimmers hope to have Thomas’ records vacated as a result of the lawsuit.
The lawsuit requests “damages for pain and suffering, mental and emotional distress, suffering and anxiety, expenses costs and other damages against the NCAA, Ivy League, Harvard, and UPenn due to their wrongful conduct.”
Plaintiff Attorney Bill Bock stated, “the Ivy League believed that if America’s oldest and most storied educational institutions led the way, Americans would suppress common sense and submit to radical policies that steal young women’s cherished sports opportunities and obliterate biological reality,” as reported by The Harvard Crimson.
“This lawsuit exposes the behind the scenes scheming that led to the attempt by Harvard University, UPenn, the Ivy League and the NCAA, to impose radical gender ideology on the American college sports landscape,” Bock continued.
Harvard was listed in the lawsuit due to its involvement as the host of the 2022 Ivy League championships, during which Thomas broke multiple conference records.
In a statement to Campus Reform, an NCAA spokesperson said that the organization remains committed to upholding the protections of Title IX, which the plaintiffs have said the organization has violated.

I call him Lia[r] Thomas.
“when some of these young women complained a few years back, they were basically just told to deal with it.”
They are.
Timing is everything.
The entire tranny thing is a gigantic lie and has been from the beginning. And yet here we our “prestigious” universities inventing the lie, enforcing the lie and now they have to defend the lie.
now U Penn and all the crappy male
athletic ppl who became female so
they cud win can “deal with it.”
I hope the ladies win bigly
and I also hope the trans records
are erased, or at least noted won by
a bio male pretending to be female.
Lee Plakas to the white courtesy phone.
Hope they win enough that it forces the ivies to find integrity and common sense in their missions.
Maybe the UPenn Dean will finally have to answer questions. I was very surprised he/she/it never got a Mike Wallace style ambush interview.
