Army says it will goes easier on people with vaginas and uteruses in fitness testing for some reason

Next comes the Navy

The U.S. Army tried to be woke and it turned out to be a joke on them. After three years of complaints and discussion, they finally realized that people who were born with vaginas and uteruses are not as strong as people who were born with penises and testicles [women and men, respectively]. So the Army scrapped its move to have gender- and age-neutral physical fitness testing and will finally allow women and older soldiers to pass these tests with reduced standards.

It took a study by the RAND research organization to convince the Army brassholes [who initially made the decision to test everyone as if men and women and the older population are all the same] that there are differences in physical abilities between these groups and the requirements should be tailored as such. 

The RAND research confirmed that people with penises were passing the new six-event fitness test at a much higher rate than people with vaginas and uteruses. Older soldiers were also having difficulty with scoring high enough to meet the requirements the 2019 test demanded of them.

The changes in testing will only affect the regular fitness test taken annually. However, certain military occupational specialties {MOS) such as tough combat positions or specialties such as Ranger school, will still require everyone, regardless of their genitals and age, to pass the same fitness test because the enemies of our nation don't differentiate which American soldiers they try to kill.

The Army revamped the fitness test three years ago, going from three events — pushups, sit-ups and a run — to a more difficult and complicated combination of six events. Those six exercises are a dead lift, power throw, pushups, plank, run and a combination sprint/drag/carry. A leg tuck was included early on but has been eliminated because in combat, ducking is more important than tucking.

The new test had been met with widespread criticism as women and older soldiers, including some in senior positions, had difficulty passing it. Troops in the National Guard and Reserve were also struggling and were having a hard time finding and getting equipment needed to train on and practice for the test.

Chaitra Hardison, a behavioral scientist and a person with a vagina and uterus who wrote the RAND study, said the data showed “some groups failing at noticeably higher rates — women, older soldiers, Guard and Reserve personnel and soldiers in some occupational specialties.” She [which is her personal pronoun] said the difference in passing rates was the largest between the genders.

The latest change will allow people with vaginas and uteruses and soldiers in the other categories to do a bit less in some of the events and still pass. For example, women [defined as people with vaginas and uteruses] will have to pick up 20 pounds less weight in the dead lift than men to pass, and men older than age 46 will also have a lower weight bar. Women and older people with penises will get a minute or two longer to complete the run, but men who identify as women will not and will need to meet the same requirement as men who know which gender to which they belong.

The new program also brings the Army back in line with the other military services, which have varying fitness tests but all use tiered event requirements based on age and real gender, as opposed to an imaginary gender claimed by people who suffer from gender dysphoria.

Hardison said the RAND study, which included analysis of about 460,000 soldiers’ tests, concluded there was scant evidence showing that the resulting scores accurately predicted combat job performance or that doing well led to reduced injuries — two reasons the changes were made in the first place.

Maybe this will get the rest of the world, particularly enemies of the USA, to stop laughing at us.

Girls volleyball coach rejects school district's boys inclusion policy

Hawaii -- a girls volleyball coach in sunny Hawaii is finally standing up to the lunacy of the left and the LGBTQR2D2 yadda yadda community by refusing to go along with the Hawaii High School Athletic Association (HHSAA) policy of allowing dudes to play in female sports as long as they call themselves girls.

By the same token, the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) is allowing male athletes who identify as discuses to be thrown at track and field competitions by both male and female discus throwers. The same is true with thin females who identify as javelins.

According to LifeSiteNews, the HHSAA adopted a policy in 2017 declaring that students are "presumed eligible to participate in HHSAA activities in a manner consistent with their school registration records, even if that differs from the sex assigned at birth."

Sex that is "assigned at birth" is actually assigned by a higher authority, if you know what I mean. You don't become a woman or a man because you believe you are if you're not--sadly, you are delusional and might benefit from psychiatric intervention, which is much less trouble than surgically cutting away your genitalia and reshaping it to give it that "look" you want. And hormones don't change your gender.

Men [of the XY chromosome variety] are on average significantly stronger than YY females. That is a phenomenon known as basic biology. And it isn't fair to young women who are hoping to gain a sports scholarship in their sport who have to compete with transgender women [aka biological guys] and lose to them.

This poor coach chose to remain anonymous because the media is crazy and will do what they can to assist their colleagues on the left to destroy him or her.

"In my opinion, it's very irresponsible for the league to place these young women, who are minors, in an elevated level of risk," the coach told the Maui News. "They all sign off on an assumption of risk form for an understandable amount of risk. Now, there's an elevated level of risk their daughters are going through and being put through without any notification to the parents at all."

But the worst part, aside from injury, is that the transgender "girls" that compete and win were generally very mediocre as boys.

An under-15 boys soccer team bet U.S. Women's National Team in a scrimmage prep for the women. The score was 5 - 2.

Tiare Sua, a man who thinks he's a woman and who works at the Maui AIDS Foundation, told Maui News that it's ultimately sexist to believe that men are inherently stronger than women.

No, moron, it's biological-ist.

It used to be considered a mental illness known as gender dysphoria or gender identity disorder, but the American Psychological Association bowed to political pressure from the left and now it's simply fashionable to have the disorder.

You can't even watch a Netflix movie or series without at least one gay or lesbian scene that often has nothing to do with advancing the plot.
