Trans-identifying swimmer shows true colors in social media post

Trans swimmer Lia Thomas donned the role of an “Antifa super soldier” in a recent Instagram post shared by her partner Gwen Luxemburg.

Thomas, who made headlines competing for the NCAA women’s swimming championship while still a fully intact biological male, wore all black: sunglasses, black shorts, a black BDSM harness and a black shirt emblazoned with the words “Super Antifa soldier.”

Since the NCAA Championships, one of Thomas’ own teammates at the University of Pennsylvania has spokensaying she felt bullied for accepting the presence of a biological man on the team, in the locker room and in competition.

Paula Scanlan spoke with The Daily Wire host Matt Walsh about her experience, saying she was ready to join Lia Thomas’ critic Riley Gaines in doing whatever she could to protect women’s sports.

Scanlan recalled a meeting during which the girls on the team were informed that Thomas’ place on the team was “non-negotiable” and were warned that action could be taken against them if they spoke to the media of communication about the situation.

“After that meeting, they really scared us. It was scary and I was petrified. I went home that night and called my brother and said, ‘Can I even talk about this with you? Is there something wrong with me for thinking this is wrong?’” Scanlan said.

“It worked. The university wanted us to be quiet, and they did it very effectively. They kept telling us that our opinions were wrong and that if we had a problem, we were the problem. And it’s scary, and the your future job is on the line. And after that point, no one else would talk about it,” Scanlan continued. “They effectively silenced us even talking to each other.”
