“I signed because women at every level and age deserve to compete in fair sport competition.

  1. We need to protect the rights of women in a world in which the claims of a tiny minority have threatened to take away many of the rights won by all the women activists who came before us

  2. We must protect the right of girls and women and protect their single sex spaces. Men have no business in women’s spaces or on women’s teams. I’ve had enough of seeing shameless males steal victories, places, scholarships, and opportunities from deserving females. It’s time to stand up for females and put a stop to the false, destructive madness that is gender ideology. Stop the insanity.

Males compete against males and females compete against females. Single sex spaces must be respected and protected.
