Melody Wiseheart heads the Cognitive Flexibility Lab at York University. We study methods for improving educational outcomes, including the spacing effect. Currently, we are investigating whether the spacing of learning episodes can improve development and long-term retention of critical thinking skills in STEAM fields, such as physics, mathematics, computer programming, and musical performance. Recent studies investigated whether spacing was beneficial to improving media literacy skills, including website evaluation. Other recent studies examined song learning, including melody and lyric retention, and piano playing.
No one it seems, no matter how far left, is so far left as to to try to make an argument defending the pervert.

Nicholas Cepeda Is a scary transgender, why would he want to compete against young female children and be in the same locker room with them?

I just posted info on who this person is.
As far as swimming competitively -- I'm waiting for the non-sensationalized version.

If they want to let it swim, whatever no way shape or form should a 50 year old be changing with little kids.
Thats flat messed up.

Why do the parents even let the kids participate. If every participant walked out and the pervert was left standing there alone, that'd send the strongest message possible. Honestly, I'm more baffled by the fact that parents essentially rolled with it and just "built a tent out of towels" to shield the kids.
I understand that the kids had trained and were looking forward to the competition, but at some point people have to draw the line. Had I been there with my kid, I'd have been screaming for walk-out.
Either that or as a father of a woman who once was a little girl, I get a bunch of other fathers together and we waltz into the girls locker room, surround the pervert, stare him down and scare the hell out of him.
And dare anybody to tell me that we can't be in the girls locker room while this pervert is in there.

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.”

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.
