It's about 1.50 in the afternoon here on the east coast of the United States. Not on the
Starting point is 00:01:27 calendar, but meteorologically, today's the last day of summer. It's a gorgeous, beautiful 75 degree, not a cloud in the sky day. Tomorrow's going to be raining in the 40s, and it'll be fall from there on out. Selena Soule, you probably don't know the name, is an amateur athlete in the state of Connecticut. She runs track and she has filed a lawsuit in the United States District Court for the District of Connecticut, arguing that when she competes against women who are transgendered into women, she's really competing against men, that her competition has the bone structure and the muscular structure of men, and it's not fair to pit her against them. I don't have a fair answer for this. I call this to your attention because this is obviously coming to a head. I believe it is profoundly immoral and utterly illicit to butcher the body God gave you and to change that body, to change outwardly that body into the gender of the opposite gender.
Starting point is 00:02:34 But I also believe that you own your own body, and as an adult, you can do whatever you want to your own body. It's beginning to strike me, however, as unfair when men become women and then compete as women against women that are born as women. It's not a fair competition. And I think that these judicial opinions that are going against the plaintiffs. So far, none of the plaintiffs who filed these complaints, Selena Soul is just one example and the most recent example. None of the plaintiffs who filed these complaints, hey, change the rules. Don't let a transgendered female, a person who's been a male, compete against me as a person who is and has always been a female. I think those complaints are going to resonate and judges will start ruling the other way. It's beginning to compete against me as a person who is and has always been a female. I think those complaints are going to resonate and judges will start ruling the other way. It's beginning to make
Starting point is 00:03:30 me think that this is unfair to the Selena souls of the world. I know we have to be fair to the people that want to change their gender, but with a decision as radical and irreversible as changing gender comes consequences. And among those consequences could be you can look like a girl and sound like a girl. You're not going to have babies and you can't compete against girls. Am I right? I don't know. But that's the way I feel about it right now. You're going to hear a lot more about this, not from me, but as more of these cases pop up in federal and state courts around the country.
