A member of a conservative group I'm in asked me to share this message. She's a triathlete and competes on the world stage. Last year she represented the USA in Romania. This year she has qualified to represent us again in Australia. This global attempt to erase women needs to be stopped. Please take a moment and make a difference.

"A one-sentence email from you could make a big difference for women. You've seen the men obliterating women in sports. And what's scary is that some younger girl athletes are now saying , "what's the point?". I competed against a man in Irving, Texas this spring in the National Championship Duathlon ( run/bike/run). I was able to qualify for the World Championships in Australia next year, but every event a man posing as a woman was entered in, there is a woman who missed this opportunity by one spot. The once-in-a lifetime opportunity to be part of Team USA!!! ….USAT ( USA Triathlon) permits men to compete against women in all areas. They have taken the " path of least resistance " with this issue. They need to hear people asking them not to allow this anymore. It doesn't matter if you are not a triathlete. And you do not have to write an essay. We are hoping to flood the USAT's board members inboxes with Americans asking simply " would you please consider the rights of women and not allow men to compete against them? Thank you." ….The photo is of men competing in the category Mixed Relay , which should consist of at least one female. Teams you see pictured below have finished at the top because they have no woman on their team, but a man saying he is a woman. "
