Ron Johnson emphasized Tuesday that most Americans are not on board with the gender ideology pushing biological men in women\u2019s spaces.<\/p>\n<p>The senator touched on the topic during a telephone town hall with citizens of Wisconsin on Tuesday amid controversy over swimmer Lia Thomas, a transgender woman, who raced with female athletes over the weekend during the NCAA Women\u2019s Swimming Championships in Atlanta, Georgia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo first of all, I think most Americans agree with you in terms of the transgender issue,\u201d Johnson said during the town hall to a father dismayed that biological men are increasingly allowed in women\u2019s spaces and events.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou shouldn\u2019t allow biological males to compete against girls,\u201d Johnson continued, noting that allowing biological men in women\u2019s sports is disheartening to the girls competing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou shouldn\u2019t allow biological males to be going into women\u2019s bathrooms, it\u2019s creepy,\u201d he added. \u201cIt\u2019s just not good.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think most Americans agree with you there, there\u2019s got to be a commonsense approach without discriminating, that type of thing, so everybody can live together in peace and harmony,\u201d Johnson added. \u201cSo I think most people agree with you \u2026 It\u2019s the left that keeps pushing these issues on us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The senator\u2019s comments are backed by 2021 polling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.heritage.org\/gender\/report\/poll-americans-are-wary-gender-identity-and-sexual-orientation-ideology-and-policys\">conducted<\/a> by The Heritage Foundation, finding that 58% of Americans oppose allowing students to compete on sports teams that do not align with their biological sex, while 53% of Americans oppose allowing students to use showers or locker rooms that do not align with their biological sex.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas\u00a0competed Saturday evening in the 100 freestyle final, finishing in 8th place with a time of\u00a048.18 seconds.<\/p>\n<p>The transgender athlete, who <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/trans-swimmer-lia-thomas-slated-to-win-womens-500-free-by-almost-3-seconds\">won<\/a> the 500 freestyle on Thursday and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/multiple-women-beat-lia-thomas-in-womens-200-freestyle\">tied for fifth<\/a> in the 200 freestyle Friday, has drawn nationwide backlash for swimming and competing on a women\u2019s team after <a href=\"https:\/\/pennathletics.com\/sports\/mens-swimming-and-diving\/roster\/lia-thomas\/19457\">racing with men<\/a> for three years.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt means the world to be here \u2026 I try to ignore it as much as I can,\u201d Thomas <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/college-sports\/story\/_\/id\/33529775\/amid-protests-pennsylvania-swimmer-lia-thomas-becomes-first-known-transgender-athlete-win-division-national-championship\">told ESPN<\/a> after winning the 500 freestyle. \u201cI try to focus on my swimming, what I need to do to get ready for my races. And just try to block out everything else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Three-time Olympic gold medalist Rowdy Gaines, now an ESPN analyst, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/exclusive-3x-olympic-gold-medalist-says-swimming-world-overwhelmingly-concerned-about-fairness-in-womens-sports\">confirmed to The Daily Wire<\/a> on Friday afternoon that the\u00a0collegiate swimming world is \u201coverwhelmingly\u201d concerned about fairness in women\u2019s sports.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m finding there\u2019s a lot of terms that come up that, terms like the fairness issue and not a level playing field, hopeless, helpless feeling,\u201d he said, adding that some people he has spoken with have articulated that they feel it is \u201ca sad day for the sport.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Multiple parents with whom The Daily Wire spoke confirmed this sentiment, describing anxious mothers, fathers, coaches, and swimmers who fear publicly discussing the subject lest they face societal repercussions in a quick-to-cancel culture.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just don\u2019t think it\u2019s fair,\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/its-unfair-ncaa-father-says-its-soul-crushing-watching-lia-thomas-obliterate-female-swimmers\">said<\/a>\u00a0the\u00a0father of a swimmer from Virginia. \u201cThese young ladies have worked too hard to be treated like that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another father, Felipe Delgado, whose daughter was competing at the championships against Lia Thomas, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/somebody-has-got-to-come-out-and-say-something-dad-slams-gatekeepers-for-making-his-daughter-swim-against-a-biological-man\">indicated<\/a> that the NCAA is to blame for failing to establish proper parameters.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHad they established rules that prohibited [Thomas] from being here, she wouldn\u2019t be here,\u201d Delgado said in a Friday evening interview.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am a believer that there is a gatekeeper,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd when that gatekeeper allows somebody to come in who potentially shouldn\u2019t be invited to the party, I think ultimately the brunt of the blame, if there is blame to be had, would fall on that person.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest growing conservative media companies for breaking news, investigative reporting, sports, podcasts, in-depth analysis, books, and entertainment for a reason: because we believe in what we do.
