We have seen it far too often, across the country. But especially in California, just like we did this weekend.
AB Hernandez is infamous in California high school sports, a young man who has been allowed by the California Interscholastic Federation to compete against teen-age girls in track and field events. He wins championships, of course. This means girls lose. Last Saturday, he swept first place in the high, long and triple jump girls field events in Moorpark California. This is the new progressive patriarchy.
Officials further mocked this violation when they made the young woman whom Hernandez stole first place from stand next to him on the winner’s podium. School officials assume it is equitable to let the girl who actually won share the top podium spot with the boy who stole her gold medal. That infuriating travesty looks just like this:
This shared-podium rule is the State of California admitting that girls and boys are indeed different and boys are stealing girls’ glory. Their shallow virtue signaling is their admission of guilt.
But the big question is this: Where are the fathers here?
In over 19,000 sports events around the world, male athletes have stolen more than 6,250 first place finishes and 10,700 top three prizes from female athletes.
These thousands of displaced female athletes have fathers, many of them sitting right in the stands, as they watch their daughters’ hard work taken from them by boys.
This is precisely the time fathers should be standing up, with absolute righteous anger. Any man dutifully sitting through such a scandal is not acting like a man. Every father should be telling school and state officials that no one will take away what their hard-working daughters have rightfully earned. Every dad should let everyone know that his daughter will only compete fairly against other girls and that no boy will steal what is hers. This should happen at the events. And loudly, with great conviction and moral clarity. Men should give words to the injustices happening to their daughters and call other men to stand up in the same way.
Just like the child in the Emperor’s New Suit, all fathers must stand up and speak truth to the lie of transgenderism, for trans ideology is the new male patriarchy. Fathers must explain that what’sgoing on in girls sports is a deceptive fiction, a violation to the dignity, worth and hard work of their daughters.
We men have left this battle to bold women like J.K. Rowling, Riley Gaines, Chloe Cole, Erin Friday, Jennifer Sey, Erin Lee and so many others for far too long. That must now end.
It is time all fathers stand up for their daughters and call on other men to make a strong, principled stand for every girl’s rights and protection.
Ron Nocetti is the head of the California Interscholastic Federation which is allowing this travesty in the Golden State. He is the father of four young athletes, three of them daughters.Nocetti should be called out by all fathers for his flagrant passivity.
Protection is what fathers offer and provide, especially to their girls. No man should look back on this era of cultural insanity and ask, “Why did I cower to trans ideology when girls in my community were being cheated out of their victories by boys?”
I Corinthians 16:13 calls us to “act like men, be strong.” This is expected of all fathers, everywhere. Now is the time to act like men.
