“We were all just guinea pigs for a huge social experiment by the NCAA about how much abuse and obvious disregard for women would be forced to absorb silence,” said Alons. “That day I go to the changing room, just to see and recognize Thomas you have a man in our changing room.”

The former swimmer of the University of Kentucky, Kaitlynn Wheeler, told Lyons, to tell the experience, to share a changing room with Thomas on January 30th.

“Young women, teen girls had to move out alongside a fully intact biological man who ate us while we were fully exposed,” said Wheeler. “We were never asked. We never had a selection or another option. We were only expected that we agree, our discomfort, our embarrassment, our fear, because we would use ourselves, as intolerant or as intolerant or for ourselves would be classified or bigoted.

The NCAA President Charlie Baker started concerns about the question of the athletes and changing rooms during a hearing from the Senate Justice Committee in December with trans -athletes.

There, Baker insisted that athletes have the opportunity to find other accommodations if they share with transgender.

“Everyone else should have the opportunity to use other facilities if they want this,” said Baker.

Baker also says that the NCAA’s guidelines, which enable trans -athletes to compete against women, is based on federal standards.

These federal standards can change in the coming days.

President Donald Trump will sign a leading arrangement to ban Trans -athletes on Wednesday in girls and women’s sports.

Meanwhile the representative house passed the Protection of women and girls in the sports law January 14, which would reduce federal financing for every public educational institution that enables transgender athletes to kick against girls and women in sports.
