Every radical feminist I know is actively supporting these girls. And they've been loud on this issue for some time. And yes, they are outraged. It's annoying to see the "Where are the feminists?" question get repeated ad nauseam. They've been in the trenches for years.
NEW: Five middle schoolers who refused to compete against a biological male in the shot put have been banned from future competitions.
Where are all the outraged feminists?
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is now filing a lawsuit against the Harrison County Board of Education on behalf of the banned students.
"I will do everything in my power to defend these brave young girls. This is just wrong. We must stand for what’s right and oppose these radical trans policies," he said.
On April 18, the 5 girls showed up to the Track and Field Championship and refused to throw.
Transgender Becky Pepper-Jackson ended up winning the shot put competition with a 32-foot throw.
