The Matt Walsh Show - Ep. 48 - Gender-Confused Boys Beat A Bunch Of Girls In A Girl's Track Meet

00:00:00.000 So this is not the first time we've seen a story like this, far from it.

00:00:04.440 But reading now from the Daily Wire report a few days ago, it says on Monday, when Connecticut

00:00:10.160 had its state open track and field championships at Willowbrook Park, one person broke the

00:00:14.180 state open records for girls in both the 100 and 200 meter runs.

00:00:18.700 That person was, you guessed it, twist ending, a biological boy.

00:00:24.860 Terry Miller, a transgender, won the events in the 100 meter dash.

00:00:29.940 The runner up was Andrea Yearwood, who's also a boy.

00:00:35.480 Yearwood won the Class M sprint titles last year.

00:00:38.440 So you may remember hearing about this guy last year.

00:00:41.220 And Miller competed.

00:00:42.340 Now listen, so Yearwood was competing against the girls last year.

00:00:47.220 Miller, who broke the record, he competed on the boys team during the winter indoor season.

00:00:54.200 And then joined the girls for outdoor.

00:00:56.960 So he was a boy three months ago.

00:01:00.280 He was a boy just a few months ago.

00:01:02.200 He was a boy.

00:01:02.800 And now he decided that he's a girl.

00:01:04.520 What happened that caused this revelation where he suddenly realized, oh, you know what?

00:01:12.140 Yeah, I think I'm a girl.

00:01:13.380 You know, I think that's actually what's happening here.

00:01:15.320 I'm a girl.

00:01:15.800 Yeah.

00:01:16.020 OK.

00:01:17.380 What happened that caused this revelation on his part?

00:01:21.320 Well, I think I might have an answer to that, but we'll get to it in a second.

00:01:26.140 So Carissa Niehoff, who's the CIAC executive, she was asked about, you know, what about all

00:01:34.860 the girls who were deprived of a chance to compete because they were knocked out by these

00:01:40.860 two boys?

00:01:41.420 And Carissa says, we do feel for them.

00:01:45.160 We fully agree.

00:01:45.880 It doesn't feel good.

00:01:47.300 The optic isn't good.

00:01:49.220 But we really do have to look at the bigger issues that speak to civil rights and the fact

00:01:54.920 that this is high school sports.

00:01:57.180 Hill House coach Gary Moore said that the situation wasn't fair to the girls, although he thinks

00:02:05.460 that Miller, the boys, should have been able to compete.

00:02:07.520 So this is the kind of moral courage that we're dealing with here is he says, yeah, it's

00:02:14.400 not fair to the girls, but yeah, of course the boys should be able to compete.

00:02:18.100 I mean, I'm not saying I'm just pointing out that it's not.

00:02:21.380 I mean, don't look, don't get mad at me.

00:02:22.860 Don't hit me.

00:02:23.420 Please don't hit me.

00:02:24.380 Don't hit me.

00:02:25.140 No, no, no.

00:02:25.540 Yes.

00:02:25.960 Yes.

00:02:26.180 It's OK.

00:02:26.700 This is OK.

00:02:27.600 I'm just saying that maybe it's a little bit unfair.

00:02:30.000 I don't know.

00:02:30.260 Don't yell at me.

00:02:30.980 OK, fine.

00:02:31.400 It's fair.

00:02:31.800 It's actually fair.

00:02:32.440 Never mind.

00:02:32.860 Forget I said anything.

00:02:33.520 And then it goes on from there with some quoting some other other people as well.

00:02:38.600 Now, this guy, by the way, Miller, he won the 100 meter and he set a record with a time

00:02:45.660 of 1172, which is a which is a good time for girls. 0.99

00:02:52.040 But he's not a girl.

00:02:53.120 Just for comparison's sake, and so that you understand, in the state outdoor track and

00:02:59.620 field championships for boys, his 1172 would not have even placed.

00:03:05.920 OK, so if you're wondering why this guy Miller decided after competing against the boys in

00:03:13.120 the indoor competition, why he decided that all of a sudden he's a girl now.

00:03:16.920 Well, I think this might have something to do with it.

00:03:19.440 He broke a record against the girls.

00:03:21.140 If he'd raced against the men, if he'd raced against the men, he would have come in 20th

00:03:25.640 place.

00:03:26.700 So it's first place record breaker on one hand or 20th place non-qualifying on the other.

00:03:35.600 He chose the latter.

00:03:37.480 I wonder why.

00:03:38.740 Now, this is obviously madness.

00:03:42.280 I mean, this is total madness.

00:03:44.460 And to think that we treat the use of steroids as some kind of unforgivable sin in sports,

00:03:51.860 yet we allow men with their testosterone and their muscular, you know, and their advantages

00:03:58.080 with their muscular structure, skeletal structure and so on, we allow them to compete against 0.63

00:04:02.060 girls.

00:04:02.440 I mean, it's just crazy.

00:04:04.220 It's unfair to have people using steroids and competing, but that is quite a bit more

00:04:11.580 fair than to have boys competing against girls.

00:04:15.040 At least if you're competing, if you're a girl competing against another girl on steroids, 1.00

00:04:19.820 I mean, you could use steroids too, I guess.

00:04:22.100 So that possibility is open to you, although I don't recommend it.

00:04:25.760 But if you're competing against boys, there's nothing you can do.

00:04:28.660 You can't even cheat to beat him.

00:04:31.840 It's just, he's going to beat you.

00:04:33.320 There's nothing you can do, especially when it comes to something like track and field,

00:04:37.220 when it comes to something like racing, because there's nothing else involved in racing other

00:04:42.820 than just who's stronger and faster.

00:04:45.440 That's all that matters.

00:04:47.380 There's no extra bit of athleticism.

00:04:49.520 And by the way, I ran track in high school, so I say this with all due respect to track and

00:04:54.880 field.

00:04:55.140 This is one of the things I liked about track and field is that it's just, it's what I liked

00:04:58.020 about running.

00:04:58.540 What I still like about running is that it's just so kind of direct.

00:05:02.380 It's a very kind of raw and direct sport where I, can I get there faster than you?

00:05:07.760 That's all.

00:05:08.520 So if you're a girl competing against a boy, you just, you've got no chance. 0.55

00:05:11.480 He's got, he, he, he's coming with physical equipment that you just don't have.

00:05:19.140 And so it's wrong and it's unfair, but here's, here's the thing.

00:05:23.180 I can't really explain why biological boys shouldn't compete against girls. 0.93

00:05:31.920 I can't really explain why it's wrong to steal these championships from girls who have been 0.99

00:05:38.300 working so hard for them.

00:05:40.220 I can't really explain it.

00:05:42.840 It's, if it's not self-evident to you, then there's not much I can do or say.

00:05:48.500 See, the left with its, with, with this gender identity nonsense, the left has come up with 0.98

00:05:55.500 a position that is so wrong and so irrational that in a weird way, it's impenetrable. 0.85

00:06:04.300 It is a bulletproof argument because it's so wrong and so crazy that there's nothing you

00:06:09.420 can say to it.

00:06:10.780 It's a position that can't be defeated because it's already detached from reality.

00:06:15.660 And so anything that you, any argument that you make is going to be based in reality.

00:06:21.300 So you're making arguments that are grounded in reality and they're floating out there

00:06:25.800 in the ether, in fantasy world.

00:06:28.380 Well, what can, you can't, there's nothing, what are you going to do?

00:06:31.020 So I can make my point that biological boys shouldn't race against girls.

00:06:36.980 And then you can say, well, why not?

00:06:38.780 And I can say, because they're boys, that's why.

00:06:44.220 And if that's not enough for you, well, I got nothing.

00:06:48.440 I got nothing else.

00:06:49.280 That's it.

00:06:49.760 I just, you shouldn't do that.

00:06:51.560 We shouldn't do that because it's, it's their boy.

00:06:53.920 That's a boy.

00:06:54.480 That's a girl.

00:06:55.180 They shouldn't race against each other.

00:06:56.920 Is that, is that not clear enough for you?

00:06:59.720 Do you need more than that?

00:07:01.700 That, that is the end of the argument because that's the whole reason.

00:07:05.940 And if you won't accept that, then there's nothing more to be said.

00:07:11.120 You see, traditionally, there's a reason, you may be wondering why arguments and debates

00:07:17.300 in our society are so fruitless and nobody ever wins an argument, no debate ever goes

00:07:22.900 anywhere.

00:07:24.320 And it's because I think we've, we lost, we've lost sight of the point of an argument and the

00:07:30.280 point of a debate.

00:07:32.080 And there are people who say, well, you can never win an argument, you know, arguments can

00:07:35.360 never be won.

00:07:35.940 Well, they can be won.

00:07:38.440 The problem arises when one of the people involved in the argument won't acknowledge

00:07:43.420 the fact that the argument has been won.

00:07:47.140 So traditionally, you win an argument by forcing your opponent to either abandon his position

00:07:53.780 or by backing him into a corner where he has to, where he has to defend some kind of

00:07:59.900 irrational, indefensible proposition in order to maintain his position.

00:08:04.560 That's another way to win an argument.

00:08:07.060 And once that happens in the argument, the argument is over.

00:08:11.820 You won.

00:08:12.740 Even if it continues, you've still won.

00:08:16.180 It's over.

00:08:17.320 So let's walk through the process.

00:08:19.280 When I say, boys shouldn't race against girls.

00:08:23.060 And you say, yes, they should.

00:08:25.020 And I say, no, they shouldn't, because boys are biologically different from girls.

00:08:30.200 And you say either, no, they aren't different, or the differences don't matter.

00:08:35.760 Well, at that point, I've won.

00:08:38.560 With your last statement there, you have just said something irrational and indefensible

00:08:44.680 and wrong.

00:08:46.160 And so I've won.

00:08:47.820 Checkmate in two moves.

00:08:49.360 That's all.

00:08:49.860 That's the end.

00:08:50.560 There's nothing more that can be said.

00:08:52.300 You just claimed either that boys and girls are the same or that their differences aren't

00:08:57.620 relevant to something like track and field.

00:08:59.740 And either of those positions are completely lacking in anything resembling reason, coherence,

00:09:06.720 logic, or scientific accuracy.

00:09:09.000 And so therefore, the argument is over.

00:09:11.020 Now, I'm emphasizing this point for a reason, because it's important for us to understand

00:09:15.460 that there is no way for us to win the argument after it's already been won.

00:09:24.580 And the people who've been defeated just simply refuse to acknowledge that they've been defeated.

00:09:30.320 Because at that point, it's not really an argument anymore.

00:09:34.320 And when it comes to something like transgenderism, particularly the issue of should boys be allowed 0.98

00:09:38.460 in the girls' restroom? 0.84

00:09:39.600 Should boys be allowed to race against girls? 1.00

00:09:41.080 And so on.

00:09:42.040 The people who believe in this stuff, they believe in it based on a religious faith.

00:09:48.440 It is a superstition for them.

00:09:51.580 They have not reasoned their way to this position.

00:09:56.340 So you can't reason them out of it either.

00:09:58.500 They haven't looked at the physical evidence and said to themselves, well, yes, I mean,

00:10:03.500 logically, clearly, a boy is just like a girl, and there's no difference, and so they should 0.99

00:10:08.040 race against each other.

00:10:09.280 You know, that's not the process that's happened.

00:10:10.780 They have just accepted this as a matter of faith, as a matter of ideology.

00:10:16.120 You know, it might also be kind of an ideological expediency, because they, you know, they realize

00:10:21.040 that by supporting this transgender stuff, they ideologically, it benefits them in some

00:10:26.200 way.

00:10:26.780 But either way, this is not logical for them.

00:10:29.720 And so for those of us who oppose this, and who recognize that it's just wrong and baseless,

00:10:39.260 well, the main thing we can do and should do is simply put our foot down and resist it.

00:10:48.460 Give it no room.

00:10:51.060 Seed nothing to it at all.

00:10:54.800 That's what we need to do.

00:10:56.200 We've already won the argument.

00:10:57.860 It's an easy argument to win.

00:11:00.220 It's just, scientifically, these are different types of people.

00:11:04.120 Boy, girl, they're not the same. 0.69

00:11:05.420 Okay?

00:11:05.980 That's it.

00:11:06.480 Argument is won.

00:11:07.380 Right there.

00:11:08.440 I have won it.

00:11:09.540 So that part of the program is over.

00:11:12.420 The argument part is over.

00:11:13.460 It's won.

00:11:13.860 Okay.

00:11:14.480 They still won't accept it because they have this, this is a religious faith, superstition 0.99

00:11:17.980 for them.

00:11:18.220 Okay.

00:11:18.840 So now our next move is just whatever they try to do next, resist it, oppose it, do not

00:11:24.700 allow it, period.

00:11:26.140 That's what we have to do.

00:11:27.600 What does that mean in the case of boys racing against girls?

00:11:31.500 It means that the parents of the girls, the girls who are the victims here, the parents

00:11:38.600 need to band together, not to make arguments, not to sign petitions.

00:11:43.140 No, they need to band together and refuse to participate in this kind of thing.

00:11:50.580 They need to say, no, this isn't going to happen.

00:11:54.140 We will not accept this.

00:11:55.960 We're going to pull our, our daughters out of track, out of the meets until this boy is

00:12:00.260 kicked out.

00:12:00.780 They are.

00:12:01.440 So, you know what?

00:12:02.200 You want to have a boy race? 1.00

00:12:03.440 We're going to pull our girls out. 0.99

00:12:04.620 Let them run around the track by himself.

00:12:06.100 Okay.

00:12:06.600 Let them do that.

00:12:07.840 Let this track meet just devolve into total incoherence because we are not going to

00:12:12.820 participate.

00:12:14.620 Why isn't that happening?

00:12:16.220 That's what I always think in these situations.

00:12:18.020 Where are the parents?

00:12:19.480 What are you doing?

00:12:20.280 Why are you having your daughter participate in this theater? 1.00

00:12:25.300 Why are you having her humiliate herself by racing against this boy that she clearly

00:12:32.000 cannot beat through no fault of her own?

00:12:35.540 And so now she has to go through the humiliation of losing to someone who's cheating.

00:12:44.360 These boys are openly cheating.

00:12:47.540 You know, it would be like if it was, if you're, if you're racing in a, you know, your, your

00:12:51.100 daughters are lining up for a race and then a girl rolls up on a, on a motorcycle and the

00:12:58.280 people in charge of the race say, yeah, well, we're going to let her have a motorcycle. 1.00

00:13:01.100 No one else can have one, but she can have one.

00:13:03.440 Well, would you tell your daughter to go ahead and race anyway? 0.99

00:13:05.620 Of course not.

00:13:06.680 That's not even a race anymore.

00:13:08.020 This is, I don't know what this is, but it's not, I know, I'm not going to participate in

00:13:11.520 this.

00:13:12.440 That's what every parent should say.

00:13:13.860 Every parent should absolutely refuse to have their daughters enrolled in these sports

00:13:19.480 so long as this charade is going on.

00:13:22.260 And if that were to happen, then the schools would be a force to make a choice.

00:13:26.820 They'd have to choose between effectively abolishing girls' sports or kicking the boys out. 1.00

00:13:34.140 That's the choice they can make.

00:13:36.200 The parents, the choice that the parents are giving the school is give us back our girls' 0.75

00:13:41.420 sports with just girls, or we will not enroll our girls in this monstrosity that you have 1.00

00:13:48.920 created.

00:13:50.000 This, I don't even know what, you can't even call it girls' sports anymore. 1.00

00:13:52.680 This theater, this charade, we're not going to enroll our girls in that.

00:13:57.340 And so we will blame you, rightly so, for depriving us of girls' sports. 1.00

00:14:02.420 So you can appease the one or two confused boys in the school.

00:14:07.060 And honestly, I'm not even sure that they are confused.

00:14:10.220 I think especially this guy who raced against the boys a couple months ago and is now a girl,

00:14:14.880 I simply don't believe that he's even confused about who he is.

00:14:19.280 I don't believe it.

00:14:20.040 I think he's just plain old cheating, and we need to be able to call it what it is,

00:14:24.620 because that's what a lot of this stuff is.

00:14:26.920 Now, I fully believe that there's a certain number of so-called transgenders who are legitimately 0.91

00:14:32.840 mentally ill, which isn't to say that they're legitimately, you know, the transgenderism itself 0.97

00:14:39.680 is not a legitimate phenomenon, scientifically or medically, but they obviously have some issues.

00:14:44.800 And so we should be compassionate to them, and I have a lot of pity for them, and I pray for them.

00:14:50.860 But we still should not cede to their demands, and we should not participate in their delusions or enforce them.

00:14:58.760 That's the worst thing we could do for them.

00:15:00.460 But that's one category.

00:15:02.380 Okay?

00:15:02.680 I think these days especially, you also have another category of people who are, quote, transgender,

00:15:08.300 especially when it comes to these boys that are competing against girls, where I just, I don't believe that they're even confused.

00:15:13.560 I think that they're just cheating.

00:15:15.260 They're just pretending, plain and simple.

00:15:17.780 And so for them, I have quite a bit less pity.

00:15:20.440 So anyway, the schools can choose between appeasing these confused boys and these cheating boys.

00:15:27.580 They can appease them, and thus alienate every girl and every parent in the school, or they can do the opposite.

00:15:36.460 That's the choice that the schools have to be given.

00:15:39.080 Like, who are you going to alienate?

00:15:40.940 These one or two boys who want to cheat, or are you going to alienate every girl in the school?

00:15:47.480 And actually, it's not even alienating.

00:15:49.960 To tell a boy that he can't compete against girls, you're not alienating him.

00:15:54.480 To be alienated is to be excluded from some group that you ought to be a part of.

00:16:02.220 That's what it means to be alienated.

00:16:03.720 To be alienated is to be deprived of something, of your rightful place in a, you know, somewhere.

00:16:10.360 So boys who are told that they can't compete against girls, or who are told they can't go in the girls' restroom, what have you, 0.58

00:16:16.860 they are not being alienated.

00:16:18.840 They're being the opposite of alienated.

00:16:20.460 They're being told, no, we're going to include you where you belong, which is with the boys.

00:16:26.260 It's the girls who are being alienated when you allow boys to compete against them,

00:16:30.740 because they are being deprived of having that exclusive girls' competition, which is what they should have.

00:16:37.600 So they're the ones being alienated.

00:16:39.060 The only way that this stuff, this gender identity, transgenderism, all this stuff, 0.99

00:16:46.080 the only way that this stuff has been able to proliferate is because people who know better,

00:16:52.880 people who are rational, people who are in the majority,

00:16:56.060 have been silent and compliant and obedient and have just let it happen.

00:17:01.020 And so we've got to stop letting it happen.

00:17:03.140 And I just think this issue with the sports is a perfect example.

00:17:08.360 These parents, like, all you need to have is a little bit of courage, just a little bit,

00:17:13.740 just a little tiny thimble full of courage.

00:17:17.000 That's all we need in our society right now.

00:17:20.600 There's a lot of, there are a lot of lies that we all know are lies,

00:17:24.740 and yet have been able to grab hold of our culture, because we, most of us,

00:17:30.480 we don't possess even the smallest little smidgen of courage to stand up and say anything about it.

00:17:37.400 That's really the great crisis in American society is cowardice. 0.88

00:17:41.640 We're just a nation of absolute cowards who will, who will just won't say anything. 0.94

00:17:48.340 We'll let, refuse to make any kind of stand whatsoever. 0.92

00:17:51.880 However, if we all had just the smallest, tiniest little bit of courage,

00:17:57.920 then things would change overnight.

00:17:59.900 And that's all that's required, to stand up against this transgenderism stuff. 1.00

00:18:03.720 It just, especially in this context of sports and so on,

00:18:06.800 it just requires the smallest amount of courage.

00:18:09.080 Because everybody, if you stand up and say something,

00:18:12.760 almost everybody is going to agree with you. 0.97

00:18:16.140 Now, they may agree silently in their heads because they're cowards, 0.97

00:18:19.940 but they will agree with you. 0.97

00:18:22.260 You're only going to have to deal with a backlash from a small smattering of LGBT extremists.

00:18:29.460 And who cares what they say?

00:18:31.520 Who cares what they think?

00:18:33.640 Who cares?

00:18:35.400 So, a little bit of courage is all that's needed in these times.

00:18:40.240 Let's try that on for size and see what a difference it makes.

00:18:44.300 Thanks for watching, everybody.

00:18:46.280 Thanks for listening.

00:18:46.920 Godspeed.
