A 50-year-old transgender swimmer was allowed to compete against teenage girls at an event in Canada — with horrified parents building a makeshift tent out of towels to shield girls as young as 8 in the locker room.
Melody Wiseheart, who once competed under the name Nicholas Cepeda
“Swimming Canada and Swim Ontario believe swimming is for everyone … people of all shapes, sizes, genders, beliefs and background should have the opportunity to swim to the best of their ability … with the expectation that our registrants treat each other with respect and dignity, and keep our sport environment free from harassment and abuse.”

I can actually get behind the outrage for this. The 50 year old trans shouldn't have been allowed to go into the locker room with the young girls. Why was a 50 year old competing against 8 year olds anyway?

I can agree with you on that. Everyone does seem a bit crazier these days. I bet it's the microplastics.

A 50 year old biological man who identifies as a woman attended a swimming competition for girls as young as 8. He not only competed against them but was given access to the same locker room which he intentionally used at the same time as the girls, forcing several parents to build a barrier out of towels to shield their young girls from seeing his exposed naked body, and him from seeing theirs.
Swimming Canada, the national governing body for competitive swimming in Canada, and Swim Ontario, a similar organization for the province of Ontario, have both stuck to their politically-correct inclusion narrative that swimming is for everyone and that swimming events shall be free from harassment or abuse, where everyone will be treated with dignity.
It's ironic to me that their idea of creating an environment free of abuse and indignity is allowing a 50 year old man to watch pre-teen and teenage girls changing while simultaneously exposing his male genitalia to them. If you're a 50 year old adult biological male and you go into a locker room full of little girls, and then observe that your actions are causing so much distress that the mothers have to come in and build a towel wall to shield the girls, only to expose yourself to them as well, then what you're doing is intentional. In any rational society, this person would be in prison as a sex offender.

As it has before, justice falls to the women who share those rooms and are eventually confronted with that reality, such that someone finally snaps. No one else can win this fight. Only the moms, sisters, daughters. They have to take it back, the female identity and the sanctuary of womens bath and locker. If they do not we never will.

Why would a 50 year old man, woman, transman, or transwoman even want to compete against teen age girls?

It has nothing to do with "competing."
The dude is a pervert. He wants to look a little girls getting dressed in a locker room.
He's as much a "woman" as the male convicts who declare themselves cross-dressers (I refuse to use the word "transgender" as there is no such thing) and then rapes women in a women's prision.
DUH!

The solution to this is to just pull your kids out of these sports. When all the kids are gone and they are left with nothing to make a profit from, this BS will stop.
File a complaint with the governing body and be clear that as long as they allow this, their child will not be competing. Enough parents get together and they'll listen.
