Clay McEldowney crusades for men’s rights in athletics. Thousands of male athletes have since been prohibited from competing in collegiate sports and many men’s athletic scholarships and coaching positions have been eliminated.

The manner in which Title IX has been enforced is an absolute fucking disgrace. Now, I am 100% in support of female athletic programs, and I am completely in favor of rules and regulations that prevent schools and institutions from discriminating against female athletes, but the methods they have used to bring about these changes are so fucking discriminatory its not even funny.

I'm sorry, but making the resources that are available to mens sports (and essentially the number of available positions on mens sports teams) dependent of how many females want to play sports, is absolutely fucking ridiculous. You do not bring about equality in sports by eliminating mens teams by the hundreds in order to make room for women's teams.

How many mens collegiate swimming, wrestling, and gymnastics programs have been destroyed because if title IX? Well, the college I went to, which has arguably the greatest athletic program in all of division-1 sports, used to have all 3 of them, and they have all been gone for at least 15-20 years.

Its a straight-forward statistical likelihood that more men are going to want to participate in sports than women, and denying them that privilege is doing the exact same thing that title IX was supposed to prevent. How would the feminists react if they suddenly decided that the number of spots available to females in college entrance classes was limited by the number of men who wanted to enroll. These female jocks can put down men all they want, but how are they going to react when their wrestler son is told he can't wrestle in college because all the collegiate men's wrestling programs have been cancelled in order to make room for women's crew and archery teams?
