Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is announcing an investigation and issuing a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) to USA Fencing over potential violations of Texas state law.
USA Fencing recently disqualified a female competitor, Stephanie Turner, for bravely taking a knee instead of competing against a biological male.
The investigation will uncover documents related to USA Fencing potentially engaging in false, deceptive, and misleading acts and practices.
“USA Fencing is on the wrong side of history and potentially the wrong side of the law due to violations of Texas consumer protection laws,” said Attorney General Paxton. “USA Fencing’s policies are not only potentially illegal, but also deeply insulting to the young women like Stephanie Turner who have sacrificed so much and dedicated countless hours to compete and succeed in competitions. I will fight to stop these unfair policies, and I will never back down from defending the integrity of women’s sports.”
“There are a lot of people who are for this [trans athletes in women’s sports] who are referees,” Turner said. “I would lose favor within the sight of referees, and I could end up with a biased bout. I could lose friends who I don’t know what their position is on this.”
“When I took the knee, I looked at the ref and I said, ‘I’m sorry, I cannot do this. I am a woman, and this is a man, and this is a women’s tournament. And I will not fence this individual,’” she explained why she would not compete with Redmond Sullivan, a biological male.
Monday Turner learned she gained a powerful ally with increasingly influential XX-XY Athletics, which calls itself ‘the only athletic brand that stands up for women’s sports.’
They awarded Turner with the Courage Wins Award and announced she would receive a $5,000 prize as well as admittance into a leadership program.
“By taking a knee, she became more powerful than any male. She stood her ground to fight for women’s sports,” XX-XY Athletics founder Jennifer Sey said in a press release. “She’s a hero.”

Someone is going to badly hurt or killed if trans-males can compete with females.

I hope logic, common sense, and sanity can return and get deluded/perverse men out of women’s sports asap. I am glad for women like Stephanie who are willing to face it down.
